What MD Flow does, and why each piece matters.
#Browse folders in a file-first interface
Connect any folder on your Mac, iPhone, or iPad. MD Flow shows a clean, native file tree. Nothing to import, no database, no vault.
- Expand and collapse folders inline
- Drill into any folder to focus on its contents
- Filter to Supported files (Markdown) or show All
#Preview Markdown instantly
Click a file. Read it. That is the whole loop.
- Rendered Markdown with a clean reading typography
- Auto-generated table of contents for long documents
- Recent files always one click away
#Stay local and private
Your files never leave your device unless you choose to share them.
- No account, no sign-in, no cloud sync requirement
- Works offline
- No telemetry tied to your content
#Cross-device by design
Same workflow on Mac, iPhone, and iPad. Native on each, not a single Electron shell repackaged three times.
- macOS: keyboard-first navigation, native file-browser chrome
- iPad: two-pane layout with touch and pointer support
- iPhone: drill-in navigation optimized for one-handed reading
#Search that respects your files
Search file names for free. With Pro, search inside your documents too — matches show the line and its number. Everything is scoped to the folders you have connected, with no background indexer eating your battery.
#Built for Markdown-heavy workflows
- AI-generated exports from ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor
- Exported notes and wiki dumps
- Technical documentation and specs
- Research folders, reading lists, and archives
#With MD Flow Pro
The free version is fully usable on its own. Pro is a one-time unlock for people who live in Markdown-heavy folders all day:
- Unlimited connected folders. Connect as many as you want.
- Higher volume of recent and loose files. Surface more of what you have been working on across all connected folders.
- Search inside your documents. Not just file names — find the line you wrote, with its number, across every connected folder.
- Email drafts, one tap from your mail app. Give a Markdown file a
to:line in its frontmatter and MD Flow treats it as a draft — it opens prefilled in Mail, Gmail, or Outlook with the subject, recipients, and formatting intact. You press Send. - Export polished PDFs. Math, diagrams, callouts, and tables survive the page.
