Microsoft Excel for Android
I use this app for my daily operations. I need this app to work. This app has in fact, restarted my phone 3 times, froze it to force me to hard restart it 2 times, and has crashed absolutely every time I attempt to enter any thing in a cell in one of my existing sheets. This is all today. You guys need to call muligan on that last update.
I have been using Ms Excel in all my daily tasks and work. But now what happened that this app is freezing my handset and stop working during using a file. It's so disappointing for me. I can't use it now and it's making me find an alternative. Please do something to retain me.
Excel is very good. Almost all the features are available in this app. But it always says that 'excel stopped working do you want to wait or close the app'. I prepared a spreadsheet about my day to day expenditure and it was lost due to this unexpected closing of app and the excel document was corrupted and it is not opening. Please make the app without crashes.
It freezes and crash my note 8 .please do something. Microsoft please read comments and fix it urgently. You are getting more single stars purely due to this issue ( I gave five stars earlier to your great app. Honestly It was really great)
11.29.17 App STILL crashing my phone. Unbelievable. 11.27.17 App still crashes phone 11.22.17 STILL crashes my phone every time I try to use it. PLEASE FIX! 11.17.17 2nd update in a row that bricks my phone when I try to edit a spreadsheet. Please stop rolling out half baked updates!
I'm changing my previous 5 star rating to 1 star. The update on 11/15/17 RUINED this app. It's now 11/29/17 and the issue that SO MANY people are having (crashes when you try to type in a cell) STILL aren't fixed. Lots of 1 star reviews because of this. Guess I'm going back to Kingsoft. ????
Was a 5 previously. Giving lots of problems now. Tends to suddenly stop and exit without saving. Sometimes my note will hang and I have to do a soft reboot to get it going again. Please fix ASAP.
Been successfully using Excel since first of October 2017. Really liked it. But then a couple of days ago it started crashing whenever I tried to edit & save a doc on my Note 8. VERY FRUSTRATING. Please fix!
You changed the app for about a week. It worked. Today it's crashed on me 10 times and I'm unable to use it at all! How does a billion dollar company operate exactly with this garbage? Steamy fresh pile of garbage.
Ever since the last update, it freezes, crashes, doesn't save changes. Ive uninstalled and reinstalled and it didn't help. Using Samsung Note 8. Used to use it everyday. Still need to use it everyday. Please fix it ASAP!
Ever since the last update, I can't seem to use the application on my note 8, need to force restart my phone as my screen froze, application shuts down after I key in somehing. it was working fine before. Can you kindly fix it. thanks.
I liked this app a lot... Until they started requiring a Microsoft account to use it. Getting one ended up being a massive pain. Even after I finally got one, it would not let me type into anything on the spreadsheet. At that point I downloaded Google Sheets, which worked instantly, and I'm not going back.
I'm required to use this app for work and it does nothing but crash on my note 8 probably 25 times a day. I truly wish there was an alternative because Excel is absolutely 100% with out a doubt TRASH!
Loved the app. But keep crushing. I did my daily expenses in it. I've been tried and restart the phone, the uninstall the app, restarted the phone again, installed the app, loged back in. Same thing. Keep crushing as I'm typing in a cell
I loved the app prior to the most recent update on November 15th. Since then the app freezes and crashes constantly. It actually froze my Note 8 completely so I had to do a hard reset. Please undo whatever you did in the most recent update and rerelease the old version.
Five stars for the app, but zero for the morons responsible for deplorably bad and destructive updates. My advice is not to use automatic updates: update only if YOU have a problem, not merely because others do (and who possibly have an issue due to a different OS).
Wow! An app that's almost as good as the full-blown product! I always depended on Excel when I was working, and now that I'm retired I'm thrilled to find this app which gives me so much of the functionality that I was used to in the full-blown product. Thanks for making the transition from work to retirement so seamless for me!
I would give it a 5, but with most recent update, I get an error message when I try to move the app to SD card. Previously, no issues. Using Android 5.1.1.
Since lately I've been unable to open files. It keeps on saying can't open file before which it would say for the longest time processing file. Dunno what update came in or if there is something wrong with the server but it sucks. Not giving this more than one star cus it doesn't work anymore
Note 4: Thank you for fixing the problems from the last update. After going through a learning curve from the PC version to the Android version I now prefer the Android version. This app is perfect for me. Keep up the good work.
Use this on the go while working as a courier - was perfect for my needs. Now it crashes and freezes my phone. Gone from being one of the very best apps to the worst. It's completely broken.
It's a little awkward to use because you don't have a mouse to help you navigate, but still functional after you learn to use it. I mean, excel has a learning curve anyway. I use it for all kinds of stuff and I love that I can e-mail my self a spread sheet from a computer and access it on my phone.
App is poor. Won't let me edit files on my Google drive. I've given permissions to my Microsoft account. App says sign in 365 account but then doesn't let me sign in with that account or recognise that I'm already signed into a 365 account. I can't believe I'm forced to have this bloatware on my phone.
the latest update renders this app useless. it freezes, crashes and I am forced to do a hard restart. looking forward to a speedy fix. Note 8
Why does it constantly freeze when opening a document? This has been an issue ever since I bought an android phone months ago. The Windows phone version worked fine, so it boggles the mind that this one is completely different and so buggy.
It was ok to begin with but it keeps freezing on my Note8. I cannot use it now as I am unable to input anything without the app either freezing or kicking me out. I would give it 1 star if it never worked before.
Unfortunately the app doesn't scale properly. It is also clunky to use. I remember it being much better so I am not sure what happened in the recent updates.
Few months ago after the update released for the office apps...all the templates were gone...bcz of some kind of bug...but after few complaints by the other users now it's fine...again the templates are available... Good job Microsoft... Thank u for resolving the issue... (19//11/2017) - Again some bugs after recent update... When shifting to a different cell by pressing the enter key from the keyboard then whatever being typed doesn't automatically appear in the cell...but appear only if the dialog box is clicked manually after shifting... A bad bug...
Has been going fine for years. Now it won't open at all. Fixed fark thing. I'm not happy. Has been over four months it hasn't worked now. Have tried all sorts with Microsoft and myself. Sony my phones manufacturer wants nothing to do with it.
Makes my Note 8 freeze up. The only way to recover is to hold the power button and volume down button.
All it does now is freeze my phone and CRASH. I WAS happy with this app but no more. What the heck am I supposed to do now after all the work it took to get what I needed in my spreadsheets?
I couldn't do anything without a subscription. Why offer a "free" version if you can't even use it? Waste of your time.
Initially I was happy with this application and i routinely wear it. But today 3x freeze and restart and force close several times and the document always fails to save. I am using galaxy note 8
For some reason, my predictive text doesn't work in the Excel app. Rather irritating, but otherwise good app!
Ever since the update it freezes and crashes as soon as I enter numbers into a cell. It's gotten so bad that it freezes and restarts my device. Using a Samsung Note 8. Highly agitating.
Relatively easy to use. My only criticism is that it doesn't have some of the useful features available on the full pc version. Hence the 4 stars.
Keeps crashing, annoying. Can't even fill one cell before it crashes
Not usable on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8. Unexpectedly freezes the Note 8 requiring it to be reset. This happens almost all the time so now stopped using and switched to Planmaker
After last update pritty much unuseble.. Crashes or freezes the phone. had to download Google sheets as alternative..

excel stupidly rounds 1/11 down to zero. It is not possible to change this in settings. The PC feature of being able to select a number of deimal places to round to must be brought to mobile. Great app though, very fun to use. Have made a primality checker and derived the equations for r to the power of 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 for sum from m to n using sigma. This would take an umpossibly long time w/o excel.
