Best Android spreadsheet editor? (beehaw.org)

I tried Collabora on a Galaxy Droid and it was such a massively buggy disappointment: in a .ODS file, I couldn't backspace more than once; I could only delete one character at a time. I had to enter another character or move the cursor or do something else before it would take another backspace. I don't understand how this app has as high reviews as it does, or no one has used its spreadsheet editor.

I so far can't get away from Google Drive because tables are absolutely critical to my work... Any ideas to help de-Google would be deeply appreciated!

Update: The search continues, as ONLYOFFICE did not work out either and similarly had file-editing problems. For now, I've resorted to .TXTs...

Shame it has all those built in trackers...

Like what? Could they be nullified if we just disabled its Internet access?

Facebook and Google trackers.

I believe yes, disabling network access will disable the trackers ability to report to their server, a Calyx developer told me this, but do your own research
