PageFlow – The ultra-minimalist, native macOS PDF reader

I got tired of waiting for my PDF reader to open.

Modern software has a bloat problem. Subscriptions, slow load times, and cluttered interfaces filled with AI features I never asked for. (Yes, looking at you, Adobe).

As a student, I have simple needs: I want a clean window to read, focus, and highlight. That’s it.

Introducing PageFlow: The ultra-minimalist, native macOS PDF reader. I designed it with a specific philosophy:

Radical Minimalism: The interface disappears when you aren't using it. Native Speed: Built with Swift and PDFKit. It launches instantly. Zero Bloat: No ads. No subscriptions. No AI clutter. Privacy First: 100% offline. Your data stays on your Mac. It is completely free and open-source.

If you are a minimalist, want a 100% deep focus PDF viewing experience, or just miss the days when software did one thing perfectly, give it a try.

First - a new, lightweight PDF viewer for macOS is highly welcome, since Preview.app has turned into a slow, buggy mess. So thanks a lot for working on this!

However, the whole download experience for PageFlow is more than discouraging with the gumroad forms that include a suggested price and tip fields instead of directly offering the download.

Also, you advertise the application as being open source with no single link provided. Is the source available somewhere already?

johndoe0815•1mo ago
One more thing. The app seems to be compiled for macOS >= 26.0 according to Info.plist, but your web page indicates "Requires macOS 12 or higher". So I think there's something wrong with your build settings.
