ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

HTML Viewer Q holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HTML Viewer Q has 2.7K ratings behind it against 41, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 45% of HTML Viewer Q's written reviews are positive against 63% of HTML & HTML5 Editor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

HTML Viewer Q ships an update every 4 months, HTML & HTML5 Editor every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
