Google Docs

Mobile documents for work and study

Google Docs is a word processor for Android phones and tablets. It suits students, remote workers, teams, and anyone who needs to write or review documents away from a desktop. You can create new files, edit existing ones, and keep ideas moving while travelling or working between locations.

Built for shared editing

The app is most useful when a document involves more than one person. Share files with colleagues or classmates, then work in the same document with live edits, comments, and action items. This makes it easier to gather feedback, assign follow-up work, and avoid passing multiple copies of a file around.

Works with common document files

Google Docs can open Microsoft Word files, so collaboration does not require everyone to use the same application. Documents can also be converted and exported when a different format is needed. Offline support lets you continue writing and editing without an active connection, with changes ready to sync when access returns.

A large, established productivity app

Google LLC publishes Google Docs as part of Google Workspace. The app has more than 1 billion installs and a rating of about 4.3 from 1.98 million reviews, giving it a substantial user base across Android. Workspace subscribers may also receive additional writing, drafting, and editing tools, while the core app remains focused on document creation and collaboration.
