About

Eledom

Features
Read full description

Eledom shows HTML full screen. No address bar, no tabs, no bookmarks — just the page and a single button in the bottom left corner. Made for anything that lives as HTML and gets used regularly: maintenance manuals, inspection instructions, exported wiki pages, training material, reports, dashboards. WHAT YOU CAN OPEN • A single HTML file • A whole folder with CSS, JavaScript and images — the page stays intact • A web address STAYS LOADED Local files are copied into the app when you open them. The page then works without a network connection and comes straight back after every app launch — until you close it from the menu. No digging through the file system again, no reloading. ONE BUTTON The button in the bottom left corner opens a menu: open, reload, close, info, settings. Once a page is loaded the button shrinks and steps back so it stays out of the way. SETTINGS • Interface language: German or English • Appearance: System, Light or Dark PRIVACY Eledom has no account and no server. No data is collected, nothing is analysed, nothing leaves the device. Opened files live in the app's storage only. For iPhone and iPad.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Eledom at none against OpenHTML's 1. OpenHTML's advantage is iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
