OpenHTML: HTML, PDF & Markdown
ZIP, JSON, Media & Code
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
OpenHTML is a private, on-device viewer for HTML, Markdown, ZIP web projects and source files on iPhone and iPad.
Open files from Files, Mail, chat apps, AI tools or Safari. Preview pages offline, inspect what went wrong when a file does not render, and export finished pages when you need a clean copy.
What you can do:
- Open .html, .htm, .xhtml and Markdown files
- Import ZIP archives and multi-file web projects
- Render LaTeX math in Markdown offline, with no scripts
- Preview local pages with network access off by default
- Diagnose missing files, blocked resources and JavaScript issues
- View JSON, XML and source files with a code-friendly reader
- Export full pages to PDF or long images with OpenHTML Pro
- Keep selected files in your OpenHTML folder in iCloud Drive and open them on your other devices with OpenHTML Pro
Private by default:
OpenHTML has no accounts, no analytics and no ads. Files are copied into the app's private storage and stay on your device unless you add them to your own OpenHTML folder in iCloud Drive. Remote resources stay blocked unless you choose to allow them for a trusted document.
OpenHTML is designed for developers, students, researchers, writers and anyone who receives HTML reports, AI-generated pages, saved webpages or packaged web projects and wants to inspect them safely on iOS.

Developer Response Thanks for the request! Unfortunately this is a system limitation from Apple: iPhone and iPad apps can only run on Macs with Apple silicon, and there is no way for developers to make them available on Intel-based Macs. We're sorry we can't add support for your Mac at this time.

• Pages opened from the Home Screen now fill the whole screen.
1.8.0 Oct 16
• New Make One with AI: describe the tool you want, then copy a ready-made prompt into the AI you use. The prompt already tells it how pages run in OpenHTML.
• Pages can now show alert, confirm and prompt dialogs, just like in Safari. If a page keeps opening them, you can stop them.

1.7.1 Oct 6
• Each document now keeps its own web data. Deleting or clearing one no longer affects the others, and project data stays after you reopen it.
• New Copy for AI: copy a page's errors, environment and source in one tap, then paste it into your AI assistant to fix it.

• Use Shortcuts to export PDF, PNG and single-file HTML with Pro, including sequential batch conversion
