As others have said, it's not an editor, just a reader. But boy what a reader! It renders org files beautifully, and the ui is simple, intuitive, and well thought-out. If you use org to take notes, and want to view them on mobile, this is the best option I've found (and I've tried a lot of things). Semi-hacky workaround for the lack of editing capability: if you sync notes via dropbox or something, keep a text or markdown file in there and edit it with a plaintext editor app, then move it over to an org file later when you're back at the laptop. Not a robust solution but works well for capturing a stray thought while you're away from the desk. Edited

Update: The developer has done a great job introducing File Links despite the file permission difficulty. - Doesn't support file links. This renders the app useless to me (see Org-Roam) - Instead of a fixed width font I'd like to be able to see the text rendered using a typical text reader font (e.g. see the Firefox Reader Mode/Pocket) + Still in active development Edited

Edit: File links are now supported.
As for fonts, Orgro does offer one proportional font: FiraGO (sans). The Pocket font, Blanco, is not free; Firefox reader mode on my system is either Helvetica (sans) or Georgia (serif). I am happy to add a proportional serif font; check Google Fonts for your preferred one and please share.

I pulled a table off a remote site and tried reading it with this app. The table had a date notes and interval column in it and this app couldn't read the table correctly to the bottom stripping out most entries in the first date column and only starting to read the interval column well down the table so context was thoroughly trashed. Maybe another app will work better. No mention was made of tables now I think of it and it's for that reason I'm surprised the app worked as well as it did.

If you can supply the file or a representative snippet in a GitHub issue (https://github.com/amake/orgro/issues) I can debug it. Org syntax is not well defined so there will always be edge cases the parser doesn’t handle.

Out of all the org mode Android apps, I think Orgro provides the best way of viewing my org files on the go. Works great with a sync solution like syncthing. Edited

Supporting the dev in the hope that there will more features implemented, for example adding multiple org files from a directory. We badly need editors that uses org format!
