Lucid Sentence is a word processor with the ribbon and page layout you already know, and a fresher look. No account. No subscription. No telemetry.
This is a preview, not a finished app. It opens, edits, and saves your own .docx files on your device, but not every ribbon command works with Word documents yet, and it has had little testing on real phones and tablets. Keep a copy of anything important.
The installers aren't code-signed yet, so your computer will warn you the first time you open it. The steps below get you past that.
Real screenshots of the preview. Tap any one to see it full size.
Version 0.1.8-preview. Every file comes straight from the GitHub release. From here on, the desktop and Android apps offer updates when you open them.
chmod +x Lucid-Sentence-Linux.AppImagesudo apt install ./Lucid-Sentence-Linux.debChecksums: SHA256SUMS.txt · Release notes and every file: v0.1.8-preview on GitHub
There's no App Store version yet. The web app is the same editor, and it works with Apple Pencil.
Everything below works in the 0.1.8 preview. Documents open in the ONLYOFFICE engine, running on your device. Commands that don't work with Word documents yet are marked in the app.
Start from a start screen with Blank document, New note, Open, and Recent. Open and save Word documents (Document1, Document2…), or download a copy. Bundled fonts with the same metrics as Word's common fonts, so text lays out close to how it did in Word.
Print, or export a PDF laid out like the pages. Headers and footers you can edit. Exports carry a small "Made with Lucid Sentence" line on page 1 that never prints in a PDF; turn it off in Options.
English, Spanish, French, German, and Portuguese, with suggestions on right-click and in Review.
Off by default. Turn it on and download a model once; then fix grammar, rewrite, and summarize on notes pages with nothing leaving your device.
Word's tab layout, contextual Table Design and Layout tabs, Quick Access Toolbar, command search (Alt+Q), and a File backstage. Desktop, tablet, and phone layouts from the same commands.
Fonts, styles, lists, indents, tables with Table Design and Layout tabs, pictures, links, page breaks, find and replace, undo and redo.
Letter or A4, margins, orientation, rulers, zoom, navigation pane, margin comments, and Read, Focus, and Web layouts.
Ink with pressure and tilt, highlighter, erasers, lasso, and palm rejection. S Pen side button erases. Apple Pencil works in the web app.
Lined, grid, or dotted paper and a floating pen toolbar. Record audio that stays in sync with your ink and typing. Tap a line to hear that moment.
No account. No telemetry. Works offline. Recordings stay on your device. Light, dark, and high-contrast themes.
Try it, break it, tell us. If a pen stroke vanishes or something won't install, open an issue. If it's useful, a star helps.
