Why this Markdown workflow breaks on iOS

Some iOS apps expose Markdown handoff through Open In, Copy to, or Open in another app instead of a clear Share button. Users still need a reader that renders the syntax.

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 Open In, Copy to Md Preview workflow

Use Open In, Copy to Md Preview, or open in Md Preview from the source app, then read the rendered Markdown locally.

What to check before opening

This path works well for Markdown attachments, GitHub downloads, cloud-drive files, and AI-generated .md documents.

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.
