I have been using Google Calc spread sheet for some years, to track how 
much gasoline I buy for the car, and how many kilometres it does.

Well, one day it lost me entries. It said there was some sync problem, 
maybe it had stored a local copy that did not match the cloud version. 
Now that file is impossible to open in the phone, it stalls. I could 
open it on the computer and save to a different name, but one or two 
lines are lost.

It's done it again. Can't open the file in the phone.

The file is simple, some 400 lines and a dozen of columns with two 
trivial formulas.

So I searched for an alternative. ChatGPT told me of Collabora Office, 
both in F-droid and Google play. Turns out it is not directly on 
F-droid, so google play it is.

Opened the file just fine in the computer (FFx opening session on 
Google), click download to ODS format, check the local file in Libre 
Office Calc, use the USB cable to transfer to the phone, done. Now the 
spreadsheet is a local file on the phone. Maybe I could use it via 
Google Drive. We'll see.


But the question is, have people been having problems with Google Calc 
on Android phones?
