Polaris Office comes pre-installed on various Android devices, but if it isn’t there already, simply download it from the Google Play Store. Unfortunately, if you don’t have an account you can’t open anything from the cloud so it is best to sign in if you need to access files from your PC on your phone. Word for Android is a free application with no advertisements and you don’t need an account to get to work. Although it isn’t easy to edit files, especially an Excel document, Android and Microsoft seem to work well together. You can also use the entire Microsoft Office Suite on your Android device, as long as you have the applications installed. However, it is certainly better to use the PC or Mac Word program whenever possible. Word makes it easy to save and edit documents on Android, so edit your docs to your heart’s content. Once the app finishes the installation process, tap the ‘.doc’ or ‘.docx’ file on your phone, then select Word from the list of apps available.Grab the Microsoft Word app on the Play Store.Google Docs can take care of opening and displaying your files on Android, but if you’d prefer to edit them natively, you can use Microsoft Word for Android. If you’d like to make edits, you should open it in a different app, such as Docs To Go. If you’re simply trying to review the content, opening it in Docs is fine. The document should open in whichever app you choose. You may need to install one of them if nothing comes up to select or reset the default app launcher if you don’t get any options like the image below. If prompted, open the file in ‘Docs’ (Google Docs) or a different doc/docx file viewer/editor if you have it. Tap the file you located in step 1 above to open it.
