MarkText for Android v0.1.0 — the first release.

A quiet, focused Markdown editor that brings the desktop MarkText writing experience to the phone, without a native rewrite. It runs MarkText's Muya editing core, reworked for mobile.

Unofficial community port — not affiliated with, endorsed by, or maintained by the MarkText team.

What's inside

A real editor. Live-preview (WYSIWYG) editing with full CommonMark and GitHub Flavored Markdown — math (KaTeX), tables, footnotes, front matter, diagrams, and syntax-highlighted code. A document outline and in-editor search stay smooth even in long files, and you can export to PDF with math, code, and fonts included.

Your words stay safe. Autosave, recovery drafts, and atomic, all-or-nothing writes mean an interrupted save never leaves a half-written or corrupted file. Everything stays on the device: no account, no cloud, no telemetry.

Yours to shape. Build the bottom quick bar and the floating selection (paste) bar from a shared command pool; light, dark, and custom themes; adjustable type; and deep Markdown, code, and per-file encoding controls.

Built for the phone. Open and save your real .md files through the system picker and share sheet — no import/export shuffle. A one-handed, editor-first layout, wide tables that scroll on their own, WCAG 2.2 AA contrast, and ten interface languages chosen automatically from your system.

Small, too — the whole app is around 7.8 MB.
