Great Files app integration
Works very well with files I keep in Tresorit, via the Files appilchymis
Nice viewer, not an editor
For what it is it does it well. This will let you view and search your org-mode files. Nice looking app, good user interface.
I’m not such an org mode power user that I need just a viewer though, so I find i turn to other apps that have editing capability like beorg for daily use. If the developer adds editing and agenda use I would likely turn to this though - beorg focuses too much on the agenda and tasks, whereas I also just want to capture notes quickly and easily - I think this app would do that nicely.
Again - for what it does it does it well. Just consider your use case.Show less0x740x73

Editing is now supported!crash
open changed files in the syncing folder always cause crashsupergueat
Developer Response
I haven't received any crash logs since v1.16.0, so I am pretty sure this is fixed. Please contact support@orgro.org or open a ticket on GitHub if you still have problems.Fits my needs perfectly
I don’t want any sync conflicts and happy to open the org file directly from phone storage or iCloud Drive. Tables display really well as does LaTeX - thanks Aaron!ihenner
Great reading experience, clunky file access
I use deft + org to organize my notes in emacs, and this is great for accessing them on the go. In particular the math rendering is awesome.
My only complaint is that accessing files is hard. Searching by file name in the file browser doesn’t seem to work. If you update a file, you need to again locate and re-open the file to have it update in orgro. Functionality to index your org files and search by title or tag would be incredible.
Overall i love it. Thanks to the developer!

Thanks for the feedback. FiraGO is a proportional font. I am open to additional font suggestions; please open a ticket on GitHub if you have any. I believe I have fixed the issue with file content being stale in v1.18.1. If you continue to have problems please contact support@orgro.org or open a ticket on GitHub.Great in its simplicity but could use some more features
This is a great compliment to Beorg, which is my main orgmode tool on iOS. That tool is more meant for organization and agendas, though; sometimes I just want to see or edit a file and Orgro makes that much easier.
Looking forward to new features. A big one I would like is the ability to mark checkboxes in checklists... especially in highly structured files (like shopping lists where items are broken into category) this is intrinsically difficult in beorg. I’d love to open up a list in Orgro and use one click to mark checkboxes.Show lessdanielsmw
Developer Response
Tapping to toggle check boxes is supported!No file syncing?
Edit: thanks for the response. Whatever the mechanism, the latest entry in my “recent files” doesn’t update when I press it (it’s days out of date by now). To update I have to delete the entry and reopen the. File from Dropbox.
I was fine with it being read only, but does it really not sync automatically with Dropbox or iCloud files you’ve opened? I really need to reload the file every time I want to see the latest version?Show lessPyzmark1

There was a bug in that file content was not refreshed when opening from the Recent Files list. I've fixed this in v1.18.1. Please contact support@orgro.org or open a GitHub issue if you continue to have problems.A simple, useful org viewer
I had been looking for a simple app that would let me view org files. If you need editing, you'll have to look elsewhere for now but personally, just viewing org notes is exactly what I wanted. It supports opening any files that the Files app can see, including what are essentially virtual filesystems such as cloud storage. Great!Show lessSentryism
