Welcome to Orgro
Orgro is an Org Mode file viewer.
Files open in “overview” visibility mode, with top sections folded.
Tap a section header to expand it ↓
Orgro can understand the following Org Mode features:
Sections can be opened and closed by touching the section headline.
TODO keywords, priority markers, and tags are highlighted and laid out nicely.
Blocks are laid out with horizontal scroll to keep code readable. They can also be opened and closed just like sections by touching the block header.
(+ 1 2)
The example above also illustrates affiliated keywords (the #+RESULTS:
line)
and fixed-width areas (the : 3
line). Fixed width areas also have horizontal
scroll to ensure proper display.
Diminish meta lines like #+RESULTS:
with Reader Mode.
Syntax highlighting is applied for many languages in src
blocks.

return (param2 - param1 + 1 + 0b10l) or None
class SomeClass:
pass
>>> message = '''interpreter
... prompt'''
When the language is unknown or unspecified, code style
is used:
foo bar baz
Tables are rendered as GUI tables (rather than as raw text) to ensure proper spacing.
Foo | Bar | Baz |
---|---|---|
Lorem ipsum | 30.000 | 1 |
123 | ||
あいうえお | -1e24 | >3.5 |
Math in LaTeX markup is supported as both inline ($$ a^2 + b^2 $$) and block:
\begin{equation*} \oint∂ Σ \mathbf{B} ⋅ \mathrm{d}\boldsymbol{l} = μ_0 \left(\iintΣ \mathbf{J} ⋅ \mathrm{d}\mathbf{S} + ε_0 \frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}t} \iintΣ \mathbf{E} ⋅ \mathrm{d}\mathbf{S} \right) \end{equation*}
Special characters written with syntax like \Omega
or \leftrightarrow
are
shown with their “pretty” replacement characters: Ω ↔
Subscripts and superscripts are also prettified, and can contain entities: H2O, A^*, e_(α + 1)
When Reader Mode is enabled, list content is shown with content reflowed for easy reading on narrow screens.
- foo
- [X] bar
- [ ] baz
- buzz
- Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Vestibulum ipsum sapien, molestie nec posuere at, porta sit amet neque. Duis vulputate quis est et vestibulum. Quisque vehicula dolor vestibulum vestibulum porta.
- bazinga
- thing
- this
- thang
- that
Drawers are collapsed by default, but can be opened by touching the header.
External links open in your web browser:
- Org-style bracketed links like this
- Raw URLs like https://github.com/sponsors/amake
Links to other sections in the same document open in a narrowed view. See Narrowing.
Relative links to other Org Mode files are supported when Orgro has the required access permissions:
file:./orgro-manual-linked.org
The above link doesn’t require special permission because it points to a file bundled with Orgro. But your files will require permission; look for a banner at the top of a document prompting you to grant access.
For more details, including supported apps and OS restrictions, see the FAQ.
Image links are also supported; see Images.
Link abbreviations are supported if they are defined via #+LINK:
lines:
OrgroIssue:105
The default emphasis markers are supported:
- bold
- italic
- underline
strikethroughcode
verbatim
Hide the emphasis markers with Reader Mode.
Images referenced by relative paths can be displayed when Orgro has the required access permissions:
The above image doesn’t require special permission because it is bundled with Orgro. But your images will require permission; look for a banner at the top of a document prompting you to grant access.
For more details, including supported apps and OS restrictions, see the FAQ.
Further, HTTP(S) links to images can be optionally loaded and displayed inline:
Long touch an image to open it in a view where you can zoom and pan.
Images are cached on your device. To clear the cache and reset your choice if
you chose Always
or Never
, see the action menu on the top screen.
Jump to named foonotes by touching a footnote reference.[fn:1]
Orgro can follow citations when a BibTeX bibliography has been specified like above[cite:@OrgroManual]. Touch a citation for details.
Orgro can show attached images and open links to attached Org Mode files like so:
attachment:orgro-manual-attachment.org
Note that this depends on the ability to resolve relative links. See the Links section for details.
Orgro recognizes encrypted content (OpenPGP/RFC 4880 messages starting with
-----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE-----
) and will offer to decrypt it. Only symmetrically
(passphrase-only) encrypted messages can be decrypted.
If edited, decrypted content will be reencrypted with the same password on save. To make this possible, Orgro retains the password in memory until the document is closed. The password is not permanently stored anywhere.
Other syntaxes that are highlighted but not (yet) interpreted in any special way:
- Timestamps and ranges
- [2020-05-05 Tue]
- Anonymous footnotes
- guess what[fn:: this is an anonymous footnote]
- Macro references
- {{{date}}}
Some limited “structured” editing features are available:
- Tap a list item with a checkbox to toggle the checkbox
- [ ] Try me!
- Slide a section from right to left to cycle its TODO keyword
In addition, plain text editing is available from the floating edit button in the bottom right corner.
If Orgro has the appropriate permissions, it will save changes back to the original file. This is an experimental feature; see the FAQ for details.
If Orgro does not have the permissions it needs, it will prompt you to share the content of your file when you close it.
Edits can be undone and redone from the action menu.
Orgro can “narrow” the view to a specific section in two ways:
- Open a link to a section
- file:::#narrowing-section
- file:::*Narrowing
- id:2F5F32A8-5DB9-4FE7-BAAE-8BD328A73228
- Even in other files:
- file:orgro-manual-linked.org::#a-section
- file:orgro-manual-linked.org::*Section
- Long touch a section headline
Close the narrowed view by touching the Back button in the top app bar.
Enable Reader Mode to reflow text, hide emphasis markers, and make meta lines
(lines starting with #+
) less prominent. The Reader Mode toggle can be found
in one of two places:
- Narrow screens (phones)
Reader mode
in the action menu- Wide screens (tablets)
- icon button in the top app bar
Rotate sections between expanded and collapsed states just like Org Mode in Emacs:
- Overview: Show only top-level headlines
- Contents: Show all headlines of all levels, but no body text
- Show all: Show everything
Activate with the button in the top app bar.
Touch the floating search button in the lower right of the screen. A search field will appear in the top app bar; enter your query here. Relevant sections will be expanded, while sections without hits will be collapsed. Hits are highlighted. Navigate hits with the up and down buttons in the lower right of the screen.
Touch the floating search button in the lower right of the screen. An input bar will appear at the bottom of the screen above the keyboard with filter buttons:
- Custom
- Write an arbitrary sparse tree filter in a subset of the query
language described in the Matching tags and properties section of the Org
manual. See the FAQ for details on limitations.
Orgro will remember the last 10 custom filters. Long press the “Custom” button to directly apply a past filter.
- Keywords
- Filter by
TODO
,DONE
, etc. - Priorities
- Filter by section priority, e.g.
A
,B
,C
- Tags
- Filter by section tags
Adjust the text size and font.
- Narrow screens (phones)
- in the action menu
- Wide screens (tablets)
- icon button in the top app bar
On large screens, optionally let the document take up the entire screen width.

Org Mode supports a variety of options for controlling the initial appearance of
a document. These are specified with the #+STARTUP:
keyword like so:
Options recognized by Orgro:
- [no]hideblocks
- [no]hidedrawers
- hidestars / showstars
- entitiespretty / entitiesplain
- [no]inlineimages
- [no]fold / overview / content / show[2..5]levels / showall / showeverything
Org Mode allows customizing headline keywords (default: TODO
, DONE
). Orgro
will interpret the #+TODO:
, #+SEQ_TODO:
, and #+TYP_TODO:
keywords to inform:
- What are valid keywords (invalid keywords are merely part of a section title)
- What is the next state when cycling the keyword
Orgro supports right-to-left text layout:
من النهر إلى البحر / فلسطين ستتحرر
By default the direction for a paragraph is determined the same way as in Emacs:
from the first strong directional character. To override this, you can set
bidi-paragraph-direction
to right-to-left
or left-to-right
in a local
variables list.
Emacs allows defining a local variables list like below. Orgro can interpret the following settings from the local variables list:
org-entities-user
- Specify additional entities for prettification. Syntax
is the same as the “real”
org-entities-user
, but only name and utf-8 replacement are used:- Name
- LaTeX replacement
- LaTeX mathp
- HTML replacement
- ASCII replacement
- Latin1 replacement
- utf-8 replacement
With the setting in this file, you can use e.g.
\avocado
to display \avocado. org-entities-local
- Same as
org-entities-user
but for use when you don’t want to overwrite your globalorg-entities-user
value or include the entire value in your local variables. This is applied after the defaults andorg-entities-user
. org-pretty-entities
- Whether to prettify entities. Pretty entities are enabled by default; you can use this to disable them.
org-hide-emphasis-markers
- Whether to hide emphasis markers. Emphasis markers are hidden in Reader Mode, but this allows hiding them outside of Reader Mode as well.
bidi-paragraph-direction
- Override per-paragraph detection of text direction; see Right-to-left scripts and bidi texts.
To avoid having the local variables list show up in your exported docs, put it
under a section with the COMMENT
keyword or noexport
tag.
