SuJian is a lightweight reader for Markdown documents rather than a note editor. Open a .md file from Files through the share sheet, save documents in the app's On My iPhone folder, or select several files at once. It supports Markdown extensions including .markdown, .mdown, and .mkd, and reads UTF-8, GB18030, and UTF-16 text. Files remain available offline; the app does not edit or sync them. The US App Store lists SuJian as free, and its privacy label says data is not collected. A useful detail for multilingual libraries is its GB18030 support for older Chinese documents. The app currently requires iOS 26 or later, so its device requirement is unusually recent and excludes users on older iOS versions.
