I would love to work with you on figuring something like this out, but I also understand if you don't have time to work with me on this.
I was hoping to build an Excel .xlsx export option into a later release of the app, but the main hurdle is that most libraries are too large to embed into an Android app (POI included).

I'd be interested in seeing your implementation and would love to see what you've done so far. Also, the simplest way to currently deal with the custom enum types is to call .name() or .toString() on them to get a string constant representation. I am planning on making that a bit more elegant eventually
