Quickoffice, Inc.[3] is a discontinued freeware proprietary productivity suite for mobile devices which allows viewing, creating and editing documents, presentations and spreadsheets. It consists of Quickword (a word processor), Quicksheet (a spreadsheet), QuickPoint (a presentation program) and QuickPDF (a pdf viewer). The programs are compatible with Microsoft Office file formats, but not the OpenDocument file format.[4]

Quickoffice was commonly used on smartphones and tablets. It was the main office editing suite on Symbian OS where it first appeared in 2005 and last updated in 2011, and came pre-loaded on all devices.[5] It was released for Android in 2010.[6] There was a project to port Quickoffice to Chromebooks in February 2013,[7] and the port released as a Chrome extension named "Office Editing for Docs, Sheets, and Slides."
