Install Md Preview, open the file from Files or the iOS Share Sheet, and preview it locally on iPhone or iPad.

How it works

Save the source file

Save the Markdown file from Chrome Downloads. Keep the original .md, .markdown, .mdx, .rmd, .qmd file available in Files, Mail, a browser download, or the source app.

Open the iOS Share Sheet

Open Chrome Downloads or Files, locate the Markdown file, tap Share, and send it to Md Preview for a local rendered view.

Choose the viewer

Choose Md Preview as the target viewer. It opens the file locally on iPhone or iPad for this workflow: open a Markdown file from Chrome Downloads.

Preview and check

This route is useful for .md, .markdown, .mdx, .rmd, and .qmd files downloaded through Chrome.

Why this Markdown workflow breaks on iOS

Chrome on iPhone can download .md files from GitHub, docs tools, AI chat exports, and cloud drives. The file saves correctly, but the preview may still be raw text.

The shortest answer

Install Md Preview, open the file from Files, the Share Sheet, or the source app, and preview it locally. The app has no subscriptions, no in-app purchases, and no ads.

The Chrome Downloads workflow

Open Chrome Downloads or Files, locate the Markdown file, tap Share, and send it to Md Preview for a local rendered view.

What to check before opening

This route is useful for .md, .markdown, .mdx, .rmd, and .qmd files downloaded through Chrome.

Why local preview fits this job

Md Preview is focused on file preview. It avoids uploads, account setup, ad clutter, and heavy editing features when the user simply needs to read a Markdown file now.

If you also receive HTML files

AI and document workflows often produce both Markdown and HTML. Html Preview is the companion viewer for that file type.
