Open .enex exports on any device. No install, no upload, no account.

Univik
Drop your .enex file here

Or choose it from your device. Every note opens right here, on the computer, phone or tablet in front of you. The file never leaves it.

Nothing uploaded Runs in this tab Free, no account
Exports from Evernote 10, Evernote Legacy and other ENEX writers, loose or zipped. Any size, attachments included.

An online Evernote viewer that never uploads your notes

Other online ENEX viewers post your export to a server and show you what comes back. Here the viewer is the page. Your browser scans the .enex file on your own disk, lists every note and decodes only the one you click.

100% private

No account, no server, no copy of your data anywhere. Load the page, cut the internet and it keeps working. Fit for journals, client notes, passwords and anything you exported because you did not trust a cloud with it.

Any computer, any phone

Desktop or pocket: Windows, Mac, Linux, Chromebook, iPhone, iPad and Android. A current Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari is all it takes to open an Evernote export here.

Save any attachment

Every picture, PDF, audio clip and file in a note has its own Save button, in the note and in the Attachments tab. Each one keeps its original name and is decoded on your device, not on a server.

Built for big exports

A 4 GB notebook full of PDFs opens in seconds. The file is scanned once for note boundaries and each note is read from disk only when you open it.

Open an ENEX file on every device

Short answer: Univik Online Evernote Viewer opens .enex exports on iPhone, iPad, Android, Windows, Mac, Linux and Chromebook. A modern browser is the only requirement. Evernote does not have to be installed and your notes are never sent anywhere.

MACOpen an ENEX file on Mac

Evernote for Mac imports an .enex into your account and never shows the raw export. In Safari or Chrome, drop the file on this page and read every note, including exports from a colleague or an old Legacy backup.

IPHONEOpen an ENEX file on iPhone

Save the .enex from Mail or a chat app into Files, then come to this page in Safari and tap Choose ENEX file. The note list is a drawer on the left and the note fills the screen.

IPADOpen an ENEX file on iPad

Safari on iPadOS gets the full desktop layout: note list, details panel, zoom and downloads. Keep the .enex in Files and choose it from there.

ANDROIDOpen an Evernote export on Android

Chrome, Samsung Internet and Firefox on Android all work, phone or tablet. Choose the .enex from Downloads or Google Drive. Rendering happens on the device, so the page keeps working offline.

CHROMEBOOKOpen an ENEX file on Chromebook

ChromeOS has no Evernote desktop app and the web app only imports. This page reads the export directly. Choose it from Files or Google Drive and the notes open in Chrome.

LINUXOpen an ENEX file on Linux

Any distribution with Firefox or Chromium: Ubuntu, Fedora, Mint, Arch. Evernote has never shipped a Linux client. Notes, tags, checklists, pictures and attachments render in the browser.

WINDOWSOpen an ENEX file on Windows without Evernote

Edge or Chrome on Windows gives you a quick look at an export without importing it into your own Evernote account. For bulk PDF, Word or image output from notebooks, install the Univik ENEX Converter.

MOBILEENEX viewer for phones and tablets

The Evernote mobile app syncs an account; it does not open an .enex file you were sent. This page does, and there is no app store download. The layout adapts to a small screen.

What the online ENEX viewer shows

The viewer parses the Evernote export format directly. It follows the ENEX DTD and the ENML note markup and rebuilds each note from what is stored in the file.

Notes, tags and dates

Every note with its title, created and updated time, tags, author, source URL and location. Sort by title or date and narrow the list to one tag.

Formatted text

Headings, bold, italic, colours, highlights, fonts, alignment, links, bullet and numbered lists, tables, code blocks and quotes, as Evernote saved them.

Pictures and attachments

Photos and screenshots inline where they belong. PDFs, audio recordings, videos and any other file appear as cards you can save, matched to the note by their hash.

Checklists and tasks

Ticked and unticked to-do boxes from Evernote Legacy and the newer checklists and task lists from Evernote 10, with due dates where the export has them.

Web clips

Clipped articles keep their layout and source link. Pictures that the clip left on the original website stay unloaded until you press Load, so nothing is fetched behind your back.

Encrypted text

Text you encrypted inside Evernote shows as a locked block. Enter the passphrase and it opens in place. AES blocks are supported; the passphrase is used once and never stored.

How to view an Evernote ENEX file online

Pick the file

Drag an .enex file onto the drop zone above, or click Choose ENEX file. Several exports, or a .zip of them, can be picked at once and each keeps its own group.

Read your notes

Titles appear on the left with tags and dates. Click a note or press the arrow keys, zoom in on small text and search across every note in the file.

Save what you need

Click the Save button on any attachment to keep it. Pictures, PDFs and other files come out with their original names, decoded right in your browser.

Questions people ask about viewing Evernote files online

Direct answers about opening .enex exports in a browser, on any device, without Evernote.

Is my Evernote export uploaded anywhere?
Nothing leaves your device

No. The viewer is the web page you are reading. Your browser opens the .enex file straight from your disk, finds the notes inside and draws them on screen. No server takes part, so the page keeps working after you switch the internet off.

How do I open an .enex file without Evernote?

Come to this page, drop the .enex on the drop zone and the note list appears on the left. There is no download and no account. Evernote itself only imports an ENEX file into an existing account; this page lets you read it as it is.

Is the online ENEX viewer free?

Yes. Univik Online Evernote Viewer is free, has no limit on notes or file size and asks for no sign up. Saving a note as HTML, saving attachments and exporting all text cost nothing either.

How do I export notes from Evernote as an ENEX file?
Export notebook, ENEX format

In the Evernote desktop app, right click a notebook in the sidebar and choose Export notebook, then pick the ENEX format. Single notes export the same way from the note menu. Evernote Legacy for Windows and Mac uses File, Export in the same way. The web version of Evernote does not export ENEX.

What is inside an ENEX file?
One XML file, notes and attachments

ENEX is XML. Each note carries its title, the note body in ENML (a strict form of HTML), created and updated times, tags and attributes such as author, source URL and location. Attachments sit inside the same file as base64 text, which is why a notebook with photos or PDFs can run into gigabytes.

How do I open an Evernote export on a Mac?

In Safari or Chrome on macOS, choose the .enex file on this page. Nothing gets installed and Evernote does not need to be on the Mac. Notes, tags and attachments show the same way as on Windows.

How do I open an ENEX file on iPhone or iPad?

Save the .enex attachment into Files, load this page in Safari, tap Choose ENEX file and pick it. Notes open in the same tab, with the note list as a slide-in drawer and pinch to zoom on the note.

Why does a note show Encrypted text?
AES text opens with your passphrase

Evernote lets you encrypt part of a note with a passphrase. Since 2014 that uses AES-128. Click Decrypt on the block, enter the passphrase and the text appears in place. The decryption runs in your browser and the passphrase is not stored. Blocks made before 2014 use the older RC2 cipher, which this viewer cannot open; decrypt and re-encrypt them in Evernote first.

Can I see attachments, PDFs and audio notes?

Yes. Pictures appear inside the note where Evernote placed them. PDFs, audio recordings, videos and other files appear as cards with a Save button. Audio and video play in the note. The Attachments tab lists every file in the note with its size and lets you save each one.

How do I extract the pictures and attachments from an ENEX file?

Open the file here and click the note that holds what you need. Every picture, PDF, audio clip and other file shows a Save button, both in the note and in the Attachments tab on the right. Each one is decoded from its base64 form in your browser and keeps its original file name. Files that Evernote stored without a name come out as attachment-1, attachment-2 and so on, with the right extension.

How large an ENEX file can the browser viewer open?
Only the open note is decoded

Files of several gigabytes open in a few seconds. The viewer streams the file once to find where each note starts and ends, then reads a note from disk only when you click it. Attachments are decoded for the open note alone, so memory use stays close to the size of one note rather than the whole export.

Why is a picture missing or replaced by a box?
Web pictures stay unloaded until you ask

Two common reasons. Web clips often point at pictures on the original website instead of storing them; the viewer keeps those offline and shows a Load button on each so you decide. Or the note references an attachment by hash that is not in the file, which happens when Evernote failed to sync it before the export.

Which Evernote versions and export tools does it support?
Legacy, 10 and other tools

Exports from Evernote 10 for Windows and Mac, Evernote Legacy 6.x for Windows and Mac, and older exports back to the 2008 format. ENEX files written by other tools such as Joplin, Zotero, Notion migration and Apple Notes importers open as well, since they follow the same DTD.

Can I search inside my Evernote notes?

Type in the search box above the note list. Titles and tags filter at once. The viewer then reads the body of every note from disk and adds the ones that contain your words, with a running count while it works. The tag menu narrows the list to one tag.

Do I need to install anything to view ENEX files?

No. No app, no extension, no plugin. The page behaves the same in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, on desktop or on a phone.

Can the online viewer convert Evernote notes to PDF or Word?

No. This viewer shows your notes and saves single attachments. For PDF, Word, HTML, text or image copies of whole notebooks in one run, use the Univik ENEX Converter.

My Evernote export is HTML, not ENEX. Can I open it here?

Evernote Legacy could also export notes as web pages (.html with a folder of pictures). Those open in any browser on their own, so this page is not needed for them. This viewer is for the .enex kind, the single XML file that holds every note with its attachments inside. If you have both, .enex is the one to keep as a backup.

Where are my notebook names?

An ENEX file does not store the notebook name or stack. Evernote names the export file after the notebook, so this page shows the file name as the group heading. Open several .enex files together and each keeps its own group in the list.

Does it work offline?
No connection needed

Yes. After the page has loaded, disconnect and keep opening files. The viewer never talks to a server, and pictures that web clips link from other sites stay unloaded unless you ask for them.
