File Viewer Overview

What is File Viewer? File Viewer is a utility app for Mac that allows users to view any file on their computer. It supports playback of various audio and video formats, displays many image, web, and page layout file types, and provides text, hexadecimal, and icon views to inspect file contents. The app can also identify unknown file types and locate programs that open them by linking to the FileInfo.com database. File Viewer supports over 60 file types, including audio, video, page layout, image, web, and text files, as well as some operating system files. However, some codecs may not be supported for AVI files, and single-page documents are only supported for EPS and PS files. Graphics are not supported for DOC and DOCX files.

Software Reviews and Criticism


  • By Ultravod

    Does what it says on the tin.

    I tried SIX other apps to see what lens I used with my 2005 Canon EOS 5D on a photo I took in 2019. I couldn't tell just by focal length and aperture. Every other app I used before this one either gave back no data, incomplete data or failed in some other manner. I'm glad to find an app that can do such a relatively simple task.

    Convenient for OneDrive, when Quick Look won't work

    Use it all the time, very convenient as an effective alternative when Quick Look isn't available (such as on Microsoft OneDrive)

    Good - If the files is supported

    If the file type that you’re trying to view is supported it works great. Sadly it doesn’t report much information on MP3 or other audio files. The text view is pretty cool though. Definitely worth a look!

    Nice way to view JS and HTML files

    But there is no search capabilities once you view the text.

    File Viewer

    I was unable to open files on icloud mail that have extetiion:part after my Maverick upgrade. Thanks to file viewer I am able to view all. I would like a fix for printing- now I have to copy and paste to a Word document to print.
