Read full description

Open and preview the raw content of any file instantly, even files the operating system can't open on its own. Before you open a suspicious email or file, you can safely look inside it with Open Any File. You can do it in three ways: ① Tap the large button and choose any file from the document picker. ② In another app, tap Share, then select Open Any File from the Share Sheet to preview the selected file here. ③ Drag a file from the Files app, Mail, or another app and drop it onto the large button. The app preview video shows how it works: an email is dragged straight from Mail and dropped onto the large button, and its raw content opens right away.
