### 1/5 — DO NOT PURCHASE.

*2012-01-25*

Please don't buy this. I have just downloaded it, at first I had to close everything the it even to recognise that I had a program that would open .ods files. Now it just crashes and won't do anything. Am currently sourcing a refund.

### 1/5 — Do not purchase!

*2012-01-05*

Worthless!  PowerPoint files are messed up and app does not allow full display of PP slide.  Do not purchase for PP applications.

### 1/5 — Be cautious

*2011-11-27*

Wish I had read the reviews before buying. I followed directions but could not open a word doc on my iPhone.

### 1/5 — No good

*2011-06-06*

Doesn't work! Doesn't respond to any attachments

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2011-04-10, version 1.0.6*

This app keeps on crashing on the iPad when reading documents.

### 1/5 — Crash prone and poor compatibility

*2011-04-01*

Incomplete formatting and font support, as well as being crash prone limits the usefulness of this reader
Also inappropriately associates itself with documents it can't seem to read, such as EPS files

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2011-01-18, version 1.0.2*

Terrible! Does nothing

### 1/5 — Absolute Junk!

*2011-01-17*

Well, my first review was deleted. Guess it was too negative. Anyway, do not purchase this app. Does not do what it says and what is does do, can be had for no charge with numerous other FREE apps. Don't blow your money on this waste of an app.

### 1/5 — Not usable

*2011-01-11*

Waste of $2.99.. Not able to read .odt view/files...

### 1/5 — Really not worth the money

*2017-04-04, version Version 1.0.10*

Does it open OpenOffice documents? Yes. But the functionality stops there. You cannot edit, resize, project, or really do anything useful. If all you want to do is glance at your writing, then it might meet your needs. Otherwise, move along.

### 1/5 — Did not work

*2014-11-11*

Highly non intuitive and could not get to display my downloaded dot file. Where do I get my money back?

### 1/5 — Did not work for me

*2014-08-21*

I bought this to read ods document on my ipod. Despite checking that it was suitable for  my ipod and IOS version, it did not read my document properly: large parts of the document were missing and it as not useable. I have asked for a refund.

### 1/5 — DirTI01

*2013-02-13, version 1.0.8*

Ne fait que lire et imprimer les documents

### 1/5 — Really?

*2013-02-10*

I definately should have read the reviews.  I purchased this to simply open and read Word and Excel documents attached to emails; it doesn't work for either.  Apple should really remove this product as it gives Apple apps a very bad name.

### 1/5 — Poor

*2012-06-25*

Did not work. Bought to open odt file received in email.

### 1/5 — Crap

*2012-06-08, version 1.0.6*

Says its supposed to open ODS files but doesn't. Don't waste your money

### 1/5 — Terrible.

*2012-04-12*

Do not download.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work for me either.

*2012-03-26*

Like the other reviewers, I can't get this app to work.  I'm a little surprised that this app is still listed.

### 1/5 — Doesnt work

*2012-01-25*

Bought, downloaded, followed instructions to open and read an excel file attached to an email, "error, can not open.". Would like my $2.99 back please.

### 5/5 — Did exactly what I wanted....

*2012-04-12*

I bought this app to open an .odt file that I had received by email.
Having installed the app, I opened the email and opened the attachment. The app opened and so did the attachment. The whole thing took seconds:)

### 5/5 — Very good

*2011-01-13*

I can really open one excel file on "Doc Reader I", and the attachment of email is saved in my iPad.
It's cool, I love it!

### 3/5 — Unable to magnify text

*2011-12-09*

Opens my open office documents successfully but the text is too small and I can hardly read in even rotated.

### 2/5 — Doesn't do what it says

*2011-05-25*

Only thing I wanted it for was to open .odt file.  Didn't work.  Was able to get it from web, but when I tried to read it, I got an error.

### 2/5 — Meh

*2011-04-08, version 1.0.6*

It displays .txt files fine also .xls with the exception of tables, which look like garbage. It has trouble with OpenOffice files, they load but have zero formatting so unless you have straight text it will look like garbage also. In summary; good for plain text bad for anything with formatting/tables

### 2/5 — Misleading

*2011-02-28*

a waste of money. I downloaded the app so that I would be able to download files and work on them while on the go. After I downloaded the app I was able to download documents but was unable to write on the document and make corrections. What's the point of downloading this app if I can't write on it on the documents I download. This app should be free. Not worth the purchase.
