### 2/5 — Killing my phone storage

*2015-06-17, version 4.2*

This app does allow me to open the document but won't let me delete it. Now my phone is full and even when I delete and reinstalled the app did not help. Not sure what to do...

### 3/5 — Business Manager

*2014-11-06, version 4.0*

Worked great at opening my email, but when hit delete it will not delete.

### 1/5 — Unhappy

*2013-11-13, version 2.0*

I tried to open a winmail.dat file and all I got was a blank white page. Tried turning off device and restarting it as directed in App Store did not make any difference. Still did not work. Would not recommend. Want my money back.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2013-09-26*

Closes every time I try and open the attachment, rubbish

### 1/5 — BE CAREFUL..... Deceiving

*2013-08-14, version 1.4*

Don't be deceived by recent reviews. Most of them are written by the creator's friends to deceive you all. Save your $1.00 please, don't get tricked.

### 1/5 — .dat file

*2013-08-14*

Would not open a .dat file!

### 1/5 — Maildat viewer

*2013-08-05, version 1.4*

This app does not work - I wasted my money

### 1/5 — Doesn't work for me

*2013-07-15, version 1.4*

Don't waste your .99 plus tax

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2013-05-21, version 1.4*

I'm not sure what it takes to make this app work but there are no options in its settings or anywhere to make it work. Tried using it to open an email attachment in windat format and it opens the app but doesn't show the file. I want a refund.

### 1/5 — Useless App

*2013-05-15, version 1.4*

App doesn't work. Useless.

### 1/5 — Update app

*2016-09-20, version 4.4*

App needs to be updated to work for recent ios10 update. I cannot view my paycheck stubs without this app. Please update it.

*2014-12-21, version 4.0*

I tried this multiple times with no success.

### 1/5 — Worthless

I had the same result as the unhappy poster above. Tried to open and got a blank page. Best I can tell this app does not work period. I feel ripped off! Gave one star on the rating because that was the lowest available!

### 5/5 — Great product - Works superb on my iPhone & iPad

*2015-10-01, version 4.4*

I'm very happy with this purchase. Someone had sent me an email with a Winmail.dat file attachment and I couldn't figure out how to open it. A quick Google search showed enlightened me as to what Winmail.dat files are and than a quick trip to the iTunes Store and a review of different iOS apps claiming to open these types of files ensued.

I noted that this iOS app was recently updated and that was a big plus for me since if one updates their iOS hardware to newer iOS operating systems (e.g., iOS 7 to iOS 8 or to iOS 9, etc.) than it is imperative that the iOS developer in question updates their iOS software otherwise it may not work in the newer iOS operating system.

I purchased this and it works superbly on my iPhone 5, iPad Air and iPad 2 devices.  Not only that, once I open up the emailed Winmail.dat file using this iOS app I can than "export the file" to a "different" iOS app, e.g., an iOS Office app, etc.  That too has worked superbly.

For 99 cents this is a no brainer.  One purchase and it works on all my iOS hardware devices just as it is advertised and should.  I wish I could say the same for all the other IOS apps I have purchased.

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2015-07-08, version 4.2*

This app works great.  Best money I've spent in a while.  I just open corrupt files on phone and email back to myself from within the app.

### 5/5 — Adem

*2015-02-21, version 4.1*

Works Great. Thank you guys

### 5/5 — Ceo

*2014-10-27, version 4.0*

This is worth your $

### 5/5 — User

*2014-10-13, version 4.0*

Best dollar ever spent. Works great!

### 5/5 — Yea! I and my iPhone 6 thank you

*2014-10-06, version 4.0*

It worked. Very easy directions and didn't pretend to be free and then try to make me pay $4.

### 5/5 — Works

*2014-07-16*

Works every time, has saved my tail several times where I have been sent an email that has a winmail file. 

Don't know why winmail files sometimes come through but this program allows me to get the email attachment without any hassle.

### 5/5 — It works!

*2014-03-18, version 3.0*

This app does exactly what it says that will do.  It removes all the frustration Assoc. with these type of files.  Four $.99 it's a no-brainer.

### 5/5 — A problem solved

*2013-11-13*

Following this odd situation of getting winmail.dat files instead of .doc or .docx, downloaded this app and translation immediately. Excellent. No instructions, just tap on the file and done. I think the message, in Dutch?, says welcome.

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2013-10-18*

Works brilliantly!
