delivered tomorrow. The Volla Phone is available at Digitec but not the Pinephone, although users discussed there about this topic:

Unfortunately, LibreOffice is not adapted for the Volla Phone screen as it is not for the Pinephone screen.

Therefore we we stay with our solution with an Android phone, Softmaker Office, srcpi and NextCloudPi:

You want your data stored on your phone & PC, but not in the cloud – our solution is srcpi & NextcloudPi

and a wired connection over an ethernet cable which requires a usb-c to ethernet adapter:

Issues we had with wired ethernet adapters to connect an Android phone to a router to NextCloudPi to a PC in several tests

and from there to a router to have our office files not in the cloud. Today we are lucky and our router shows only one ip adress for a Pocophone and not two as it showed yesterday and we know which ip adress to choose for NextCloudPi.
