Why this HTML workflow breaks on iOS

Bitbucket repositories can include generated HTML docs, saved web examples, and report files. On iPhone, the file often needs a focused local renderer.

The shortest answer

Install Html 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 Bitbucket workflow

Bitbucket: The app does not open ZIP archives. Extract the archive in Files, then choose one supported HTML file. Open one .html, .htm, .xhtml file from Files, the iOS Share Sheet, or Open In. For reliable preview, use self-contained HTML. Neighboring CSS, scripts, images, anchors, or other local pages may not resolve as a project.

What to check before opening

If the file comes from a repository archive, unzip it first and preserve relative paths before previewing.

Why local preview fits this job

Html Preview is focused on file preview. It avoids uploads, account setup, ad clutter, and heavy editing features when the user simply needs to read an HTML file now.

If you also receive Markdown files

AI and document workflows often produce both HTML and Markdown. Md Preview is the companion viewer for that file type.
