Markdown is the default format for notes, docs and READMEs, but reading it on Android is oddly painful. Most apps I tried would break one of: tables, LaTeX, code highlighting, or wiki links. I wanted GitHub-quality rendering in my pocket.
So I built MdViewer. The parts I care about most:
-
Rendering correctness. Tables, task lists, inline/block LaTeX, syntax highlighting for common languages, images and
[[wiki links]]all render the way desktop tools show them. -
Folder workflow. You point it at folders (your Obsidian vault, a notes dir, a cloned repo) and it lists every
.mdinside. Pull to refresh. -
Offline GitHub import. Type
owner/repoand it downloads the repo's.mdfiles for offline reading. Private repos work with a token. - Small extras that add up: heading outline, in-doc search, highlights, bookmarks, PDF/HTML export, an editor with live preview, on-device OCR.
It is free (ads) and Android only:

If you find a file it renders wrong, I genuinely want to know.
Disclosure: I am the developer.
