Marklens: Markdown Reader

Marklens is a fast, native Markdown viewer for macOS, iPadOS, and iPhone.
Open any .md file with a click and see it rendered immediately — beautiful
typography, light and dark themes, syntax-highlighted code, and Mermaid
diagrams. No editor, no library, no friction.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Instant render — every .md opens in a clean, focused window
• 30+ language syntax highlighting via highlight.js, bundled offline
• Mermaid 11 diagrams — flowcharts, sequence, state, xy-charts and more
• GitHub-Flavored Markdown — tables, task lists, footnotes, strikethrough
• Light and dark theme matching the system appearance
• Quick Look on macOS — press Space on any .md in Finder for a rendered preview
• Export to PDF on every platform
• Pinch-to-zoom on iPadOS and iPhone, ⌘+ / ⌘− / ⌘0 on macOS
• Open files via drag-and-drop, the Share Sheet, or the Files app

MADE FOR READING

Marklens doesn't try to be a notes app or a knowledge base. It opens a
file, renders it perfectly, and gets out of the way. If you write Markdown
in another tool — VS Code, Obsidian, GitHub, your favorite text editor —
Marklens is the viewer you reach for to look at the result.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Marklens collects nothing. No analytics, no telemetry, no crash reports,
no network requests. Every rendering asset — Mermaid, highlight.js,
fonts — ships inside the app. Read the full privacy policy at
