5/5THIS is a markdown viewer
Other viewers try to do too much (editing) while doing too little (being ugly). This is the one. It has a “recent” list, it has a table of contents, and it displays rendered markdown. Its default styles are similar to GitHub’s (nice-looking and readable) and supports dark and light modes. That’s literally all you need. The only downside is I can’t throw money at the developer for it.

5/5Excellent markdown reader
I do most of my work at my desktop PC, but I don’t want to be tied to it when reviewing lengthy documents. I have found this to be an excellent solution because I can read markdown documents, which I generate frequently, on my iPad while sitting on my deck and not feel like I’m a slave to my desktop.

5/5Simple and it works
My experience so far has been great. It just opens the file and renders it. Seems lightweight. Exactly what I was looking for.

4/5A great quick markdown viewer
This is a nice markdown file viewer, opens quickly and renders the markdown I expect, with the ability to see content outline for navigation and some search functionality as well. Looking forward to seeing where the product goes in the future.

5/5My favorite Markdown reader so far. Super tidy!
This app rocks and I love the iOs version, too. It’s wonderful and beats most of the established players on sheer aesthetics.

Fixes and polish: • Reading positions are now remembered separately for files that share a name — every README.md used to share one spot. • Fixed a rare hang where a document would never finish loading. • GitHub files in Recents now show their repo and folder, so same-named files are easy to tell apart.
