AndrOpen Office

So I do a lot of typing in Andropen Office.

It's an OpenOffice derivative adapted to Android.

I like that it works, it works reasonably well with e-ink devices, and it uses a constant cursor which usually hides the accursed blinking Android cursors.

I don't like that, like other Android apps, it crashes if I connect or disconnect a usb keyboard, or if a blutooth keyboard disconnects or reconnects itself, as they do.

I sometimes get a weird flicker effect with gray backgrounds.

It does have the OpenOffice/LibreOffice Navigator but it loads in its own small window. I can't figure out how to get it to appear alongside the document. I end up having to hide the Navigator and do all my navigation by repeated Page Up and Page Down.

It often requires several clicks to open the menu to edit math formulae, and I haven't figured out a way to type special characters.

Anyone else using it? Comments, questions, or suggestions?
