Hi.

I have installed and configured OneDrive for my Windows 10 and Android devices.

OneDrive at Windows 10 is working perfect, but all files at my Android device is read-only.

How can I edit file live, like at my Windows 10 devices?

Samsung Galaxy S10e (SM-G970F/DS)
Android version: 11
Android OneDrive version: 6.26

    You cannot edit files directly from the OneDrive app, you have to use the Office mobile app for that. And in order to edit files in the Office app, you need a valid/qualifying Office 365 subscription: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/what-you-can-do-in-the-office-apps-on-mobile-devices-with-a-microsoft-365-subscription-9ef8b63a-05fd-4f9c-bac5-29da046833ea

    Unfortunately, I must find an alternative to OneDrive, because I don’t have a subscription. Anyway. Thanks for fast answer.

    Hi @BlazTU ,
    I suggest you give a feedback to OneDrive uservoice forum: https://onedrive.uservoice.com/
