What’s new
Version 1.3 · Updated October 10, 2026
Simple Viewer now opens email files (.eml). • See the subject, sender, recipients, and date at the top of the message. • Inline images show in place. Remote images and trackers are blocked, so nothing loads from the internet. • See all attachments with their sizes. Tap an attachment to open it in the app. Emails attached to an email open too. • HTML emails keep their own layout. They follow Dark Mode when the email supports it. • Plain-text emails and emails in other languages and character sets display correctly. • Open .eml files from the Files app, or with the + button in Simple Viewer. Also in this version: • Fixed: In an Excel file opened from inside a ZIP archive, the Notes button now opens the notes list.
