PreviewMD for Mac

Markdown reader with Finder Quick Look previews.

Free
In English
Version 0.5.0

PreviewMD overview

PreviewMD adds formatted Markdown previews to Finder Quick Look. Select a Markdown file and press Space to read headings, tables, task lists, and front matter.

The app opens files and folders in a native Mac reader. Browse a folder tree, follow Obsidian wikilinks, view Mermaid diagrams, and make changes in Preview, Split, or Edit views. Mermaid diagrams and clickable wikilinks are available in the app; Finder previews are static.

Remote images are blocked in Finder previews. In the app, they load only when you choose to load them.

Read Aloud in the app uses Univocal Connect and highlights the current word and sentence. It requires separately installed Univocal 0.3.29 or later, an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 14 or later, and permission in Univocal on first use. Univocal is a separate paid app with a 14-day trial.

What's new in version 0.5.0

  • Added Read Aloud through Univocal Connect, with current-word and sentence highlighting, following scroll, and click-to-jump reading.
  • Added first-use permission in Univocal and prompts to install or update Univocal when needed. Requires Univocal 0.3.29 or later.
  • Added Read Aloud from the toolbar or Edit menu with Shift-Command-R. Pause, sentence skip, speed, voice and stop controls are in Univocal's floating controls.
  • Added routing for Univocal's Option-Shift-R shortcut to start reading in PreviewMD or pause/resume an active session.
