Looking at the reviews, I'm impressed at what apps people report
success with on UserLAnd. But it seems that UserLAnd only allows
terminal access, and you will need a larger screen computer with VNC
to access graphical apps like Scribus. If I look at reviews for the
UserLAnd app I'm impressed with the software that works with just
cosmetic issues (i.e. Firefox runs on UserLAnd but you can't see the
URL bar).

In my personal experience such emulation layers will never give a
satisfying result, even if you can live with the restrictions.

If you need to access your Scribus documents from your phone in
emergencies, you'd probably be better of to use something like
teamviewer or vnc to access your computer at home.

I cannot even envision how to turn Scribus intro a native Android app.

With klnd regards,

Bert
