Android Box Mobile document access NOT MS Office

Hi,

I'm tearing out what remaining hair that I have trying to figure this out ...

I don't use MS Office on Windows or Android.  BUT, I'd like to edit docs using local apps on Android as I do on Windows. 

I also have a subscription Acrobat and would like to use that for reading and editing Box documents locally while on the road.

How do I stop Box Mobile from always trying to us MS Office (which isn't installed) and allow me to select a locally installed app that will open the document? 

This isn't an issue from Box for Windows or Mac, so why the issue with Android?

Thanks in advance.
