How to open OnlyOffice mobile-optimized web view on Android phone?

Seafile Server
1

I’m not sure whether to ask this on here or on onlyoffice forum.

I’m currently self hosting seafile 11.0.13 + onlyoffice 8.3.3.18 docserver integration CE for both. I have no problems opening docx and xlsx – everything opens fine and works.

But what I notice is that when opening anything with onlyoffice it always loads the desktop version of webview regardless whether I’m opening it with chrome on my PC or a browser on my Android phone. For some reason it seems to load forever when I open from Android.

I’m wondering why isn’t it using the mobile-optimized version of webview when opening from my phone’s browser? Is there some configuration or extra stuff I need to install for that to happen?

For example, plus.seafile.com has the behavior I’m looking for: desktop view when opening from PC browser and mobile-optimized view when opened from my phone. How did plus.seafile.com do this?

Thanks

This is one of the reasons I chose Collabora instead of OnlyOffice. It looks like the mobile-friendly web editor for OnlyOffice is only available in the business or paid-for versions of OnlyOffice.

So plus.seafile.com is using a commercial version of onlyoffice? It seemed a little weird because when I open a spreadsheet, it used the mobile webview on Android, but it still showed a popup at the start saying community version only allows read-only.
