Is Word Document: DOCX, PDF, XLSX a scam?
There's at least one clear report of the free-trial-to-paid pattern that people call a scam: a reviewer says they picked the free trial and were immediately charged for a full year with no response from the developer to their emails. Another reviewer separately reports a virus infecting their phone after installing it. Those are serious, credible complaints even though most reviews are about ads and lost work rather than fraud — read the trial terms carefully before starting one, and keep your phone's security scanning on.
scam app DON'T DOWNLOAD! I selected the "Free Trial" and was charged for a full year. The app developer doesn't respond to emails.

Is Word Document: DOCX, PDF, XLSX legit?
Most reviewers use it as a working document reader and editor without incident, and many leave five-star reviews praising how easy it is to open Word files. But it isn't spotless — alongside the free-trial billing complaint above, one reviewer reports their phone was infected with a virus after installing the app, which is a serious enough claim to treat with caution even as an outlier.
It was infected with a virus which infected my phone!

Why does Word Document: DOCX, PDF, XLSX show so many ads?
This is the single most common complaint by far: reviewers describe ads that block basic actions, full-screen ads that appear every few seconds, and in some cases an ad you're forced to click through before a document will even open, which can itself install an unrelated app. If you plan to use this app regularly for real document work, expect the free tier's ad load to be heavy.
Total garbage. So many ads that you won't even be able to open a word document. It won't let you open until you click on an ad that will install some random app on your app depending on the Ad. Google can easily detect and ban these kinds of apps but they won't because they share Ad revenue with Google. Sad.

Can I save and edit documents for free in Word Document: DOCX, PDF, XLSX?
Only partially. Reviewers repeatedly describe editing a document and then hitting a paywall when they try to save it — sometimes offered an ad to watch as an alternative, which one reviewer says didn't reliably work either. If saving your edits matters, expect to eventually need the paid subscription rather than relying on the free tier for real editing work.
I wrote a long document and was unable to save it. They ask for a subscription, which is to be expected, but the choice to watch an ad instead leads to a message stating, "No ads available, please wait." I just want to save my work, but I won't pay a $110CAD ransom to do so.

Why does the app crash or lose my work while editing?
A number of reviewers describe losing work mid-edit — the app crashing, a document refreshing back to a blank or earlier state, or text disappearing entirely after being saved and converted. This seems to happen often enough that it's worth saving or exporting frequently rather than trusting a single long editing session, especially for anything important.
the worse, i edited my file, and it keeps crashing, then when i finally saved it and turned it into a pdf, the words i put in dissappeared, this needs a lot to improve, like literally..
