Frequently asked questions

Is the MBOX Viewer free?

Yes — completely free with no daily limit and no account. ZapMorph’s viewers and developer tools are unmetered.

Is my file uploaded to a server?

No. The file is opened by your browser and displayed on this page. It is never uploaded, stored or logged — close the tab and it’s gone.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. It works in any modern browser on iPhone, Android, Windows, Mac and Linux, with nothing to install.

How large can the file be?

There is no fixed limit — it depends on your device’s memory. Files of a few hundred megabytes open fine on most computers.
