I use Notepad++ or KATE for basic distraction free writing, or Jota on Android. Turn off notifications / data / Internet.

Microsoft thinks it is selling me a MS Office subscription, when in reality, I am buying a subscription to MS OneDrive, which is superior to and more cost effective than, Google, DropBox, etc, at least for Windows users. The fact that I can use MS Word natively on an Android tablet, Chrome, or in any device with a browser is a significant plus, though not a driving decision point for me personally.
Microsoft must be praised for its Android efforts. For those who want/need an ability to integrate their Android activity with their Windows activity as seamlessly as possible, a Microsoft solution must be at least considered.
For me, "distraction free" is more of a state of mind than it is an application. I find that without a ruthless and deadly intent, I can be distracted quite easily regardless of platform, and application used.
