  1. This is such a fantastic product, I hope Akikazu will be able to add AmazonDrive support too !?

    This is how I'm using Office 700: my small company used MS Office for years and then converted to OpenOffice & LibreOffice in order to get away from the poor quality of software Microsoft were putting out. All my Windows PC files were slowly getting converted from .doc to .odt etc.

    Then the rental OS model of Windows meant changing to Linux or iOS and the sheer quality of Apple hardware in ALL categories of computing and phones (see UK Which Magazine) meant that iOS won. Next step: moving from PC laptops to iPad....

    What a pain to try to move your company's working directory of files and folders over to an iPad ! What a pain to find a way to edit all those Open Office documents and spreadsheets ! Here's a link to the hard work I've put into making this work:

    The upshot is that the iPad application of choice is "Office 700", and the file management app to move all those files locally onto the iPad is Google Drive. Perhaps Akikazu will give users a chance to try out Amazon Drive properly too, if he can integrate it into the App as smoothly as the other cloud services....

  3. I've given up trying to use Office 700 on iPad Pro with an Apple Smart Keyboard, sadly.

    It's simply not possible to quickly write an document or spreadsheet quickly, save to DropBox and be done.

    In fact there is NO word processor or spreadsheet iPad app available that allows you to create and edit Open Office documents and spreadsheets. This is really true, check it out and test the market thoroughly before disagreeing !

    I'd hoped that Office 700 was going to be the breakthrough, but Akikazu simply needs a bigger team to make his app usable (too many icons that are too small, mouse control fighting against keyboard control, normal text editing functions select/ select all unavailable etc.)

    I really hope some developers can help this guy out. It's worth the fight to avoid getting trapped into proprietary and unstable data formats such as MS-Word, Apple-iPages, Google-Write). Even if someone could write a decent rtf editor (that includes headers and footers and is compatible with DropBox) - that would do the job too !
