Android version does not have all the features in the Linux version, yet. (Most of the missing functionality will be implemented in the future releases.) The comparison of abilities on the two platforms are as follows:

• Android version can open any file created by the desktop version. Unsupported information will be preserved on save
• Trash is not supported (will be available on v2.0)
• Check/bulleted/numbered lists are not supported in the entry editor (will be available on v2.0)
• Themes are supported but they cannot be edited
• Filter support is limited
• Chart support is limited
• Tables are not supported (is planned for v2.1)
• Printing is not available
