Set app as default for .md files about beautyxt

[soupslurpr]

Could you send me a screenshot of the menu it doesn't appear in? It does support setting it as the default app for opening .md files.

The files app opens the .md file automatically with the app, but when I try to open a file from whatsapp it doesn't works

Its likely a WhatsApp issue. You can try installing this app https://github.com/MuntashirAkon/AppManager/releases/download/v3.1.6/AppManager_v3.1.6.apk and opening the file with it and sending a screenshot of the result to see what WhatsApp is putting in the intent.

As you can see, WhatsApp is setting the type as application/octet-stream in the intent. The correct type for Markdown is text/markdown.

[soupslurpr]

application/octet-stream is the MIME type for arbitrary binary data.

"Generic binary data (or binary data whose true type is unknown) is application/octet-stream."
