MD Viewer shows Markdown files as clean, readable documents. READ FIRST Every file opens in reading mode. Headings, lists, quotes, tables, code blocks, links and images are rendered natively with the system fonts, your text size and your accent colour. Text is selectable, links open in your browser, and the layout adapts from a phone to a full Mac window. EDIT WHEN YOU WANT Tap Edit to change the source. In Formatted mode the Markdown is styled as you type, with headings large, emphasis rendered, code monospaced and the syntax dimmed, plus a formatting bar for headings, bold, italic, strikethrough, code, links, images, lists, quotes, code blocks, tables and rules. Prefer the raw source? Text mode is a plain editor. Either way the file stays plain Markdown, saved automatically, with undo. YOUR FILES, WHEREVER THEY ARE Files app, iCloud Drive, Finder, Dropbox and other providers, Share, Open With, drag and drop. Multiple windows on iPad and Mac. Keyboard shortcuts including ⇧⌘E to toggle editing. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No servers, no analytics, no ads, no tracking. Your documents never leave your device; the only network use is loading images your own document links to. Supports CommonMark plus tables and strikethrough. Requires iOS 17, iPadOS 17 or macOS 14 or later.
