        I installed the UBports Docs app. I now realize it's a web app, and thus it works when I'm in touch with Wi-Fi (I don't have data on my phone), but otherwise won't work for me. So, I would like to see a version of the app with downloadable files, so I could peruse the help files wherever I choose.

          Here's the Documentation Online

          In the lower left hand corner on my browser there is a button you can press, "Read the Docs". You could then for example select "PDF" and it will open a downloadable PDF. So, on my computer I could download the PDF, then drag and drop the file onto the Documents folder on my device, then open the PDF in a PDF reader app on the device (you'll need to download one in the OpenStore)

            Thanks. Okay, I've downloaded docsubportscom.pdf onto my phone (in the Documents folder). How do I read it? When I select it with the File Manager, I'm given the choice of "OpenStore" and "Dekko 2", neither of which strike me as programs for reading pdf documents.

              Go to OpenStore and find a PDF viewer app, like PDFjsViewer and download that to view the PDFs

                Thanks. PDFjsViewer works well.

                  I also tried downloading the html file from the site you gave, @mirroronthewall. But, when using the file manager to open it, the manager did not give the web browser the opportunity to open it. It's a shame the file manager doesn't have the option to choose which app a user would like to open a document with.

                    @MarkG_108 The feature is available, but each app is responsible to declare and to handle how the files can be openned.
                    So I think MorphBrowser in this case doesn't tell the system that he can read HTM/HTML/... files.
                    I don't know if there is an issue open for that but if you want it, you can check existing issues for MorphBrowser and if this one doesn't exist open a new one.
