Why this HTML workflow breaks on iOS

Invoices, newsletters, exported reports, and saved web pages can arrive as HTML attachments. iOS may show the attachment as a file instead of a readable page.

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 Mail, Gmail, Outlook workflow

Open the attachment, tap Share, send it to Html Preview, and preview the HTML file on your device.

What to check before opening

If the attachment came with a folder of images or styles, keep those files beside the HTML attachment before opening.

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 a 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.
