Open Markdown Files on iPhone with Md Preview: ChatGPT, Mail & Files

Use Md Preview from Files, the iOS Share Sheet, or Open In to preview .md, .markdown, .mdx, .rmd, .qmd locally on iPhone and iPad without uploading. When ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, DeepSeek, Grok, NotebookLM, Obsidian, Notion, GitHub, Mail, iCloud Drive, Google Drive, or Dropbox gives you a Markdown file, open it in Md Preview for a clean rendered view. No subscriptions. No in-app purchases. No ads.

When this is the right iOS fix

Use this route when the file already exists and you need a reliable preview path on iPhone or iPad.

Best-fit search intent

You have a Markdown file from ChatGPT, GitHub, Files, Mail, or cloud drives and iOS shows an icon, raw code, or an unreadable preview.

Native iOS path

Start from Files, Mail, Safari downloads, AirDrop, a cloud drive, or the source app, then use Share or Open In.

Viewer role

Md Preview is the dedicated local viewer for .md, .markdown, .mdx, .rmd, .qmd; it avoids upload and converter workflows.

When not to use it

If raw text is enough, Files can show many .md files. Use Md Preview when you need rendered Markdown, code, math, tables, or Mermaid on iPhone or iPad.

If the file is HTML instead

Use Html Preview, the companion iOS viewer for HTML files, when this workflow produces HTML instead of Markdown.

Next action

Open the App Store listing, install the viewer, then return to the file and share it to Md Preview.
