I’d like to process some Microsoft Word documents on my android tab. Do you have any recommendations on FOSS word editors that work with .doc and .docx on android?

libreoffice under termux + termux-x11 was the best solution i could find in 2025, actually worked really well. but it could be a bit tedious to use if you're not familiar with *nix stuff.

i think the termux repo didn't ship libreoffice and i had to use proot distro debian, but i may be misremembering.

Yep, that still seems to be the case.
