Excellent
Orgro is reliable and functional. It's perfect for viewing and editing org mode files. I'm very happy with this purchase.
Trial, are you kidding me?
27 January 2026:
Apparently “Trial Period” starts at the time of downloading the app from the app store as opposed to the first point in time you have opened the app. So, I did not open the app until today, and now it is telling me the trial period has expired. There was no trial period.
So I resorted to Copilot to tell me exactly what “Org” is an how it is used. Given what I learned, I don’t believe I would use Org or Orgro because it is just to cumbersome just like Markdown is.
Best of luck on an app 6hat the developer does not really intend to address feature requests … a.k.a., it is out there; but, absolutely no commitment to supporting the app. A very strange way you promote the use of an app.

If you are still interested in trying the app, please contact support.
I like the direction
I like everything that the app is, except 2 things I’d like added:
1. Ability to adjust font size while in edit mode. This would be huge for me because I don’t want to have to change my system font scaling setting for 1 app.
2. Render while in preview mode is incredibly slow if the org file is at-all large. Maybe there could be a light-weight setting to do less text stylization (maybe that would with render speed? Idk).
Thanks - E

Thank you for the review. I would like to invite you to open an issue on the support page to discuss your suggestions.
Just what I was looking for to view Emacs Orgmode files on mobile devices!!!
I had given up on finding an app that would allow me to view my orgmode files in any useable manner on my mobile devices… and then I found Orgro.
Kudos and thanks to the developer for this feature-rich app (narrowing, following links to other org files, display for tables and LaTeX formulae, …) for a really reasonable price and no ads in it. It is even available as open source!!!

Great Files app integration
Works very well with files I keep in Tresorit, via the Files app
