Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: OpenDocument Reader at Free against AO Office Pro's $19.99. OpenDocument Reader also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (897 vs 164). AO Office Pro's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (51% vs 31%). On update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

OpenDocument Reader holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OpenDocument Reader has 897 ratings behind it against 164, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of AO Office Pro's written reviews are positive against 31% of OpenDocument Reader's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

AO Office Pro ships an update every 6 weeks, OpenDocument Reader every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
