Winmail Viewer:for DAT,XPS,MSG App Reviews
Test
It doesn’t work at all. I’ve opened ten winmail.dat files but I can see just the mail body text.
Prompts for email upon launch, ads run on pop-up window, foreign developer, buyer beware. Apple: are you watching the apps that are being uploaded? Obviously, this is something you should pay attention to. Why not add this functionality to Mail.app?
I cant believe I found something to take care of opening the winmail.dat files. It has annoyed me for years that I couldnt open these attachments on my phone but had to go to my computer: And it was free--or I hope it remains free. Great appl!
Works Good!
Easy to use! And fixes that pesky Windat problem
Does the job
Does what it says. I use it frequently.
I just downloaded this app and it worked just as promised!!! I was able to see all of the files that were hidden in the winmail.dat! These were important documents. Thanks a lot!!
This app has opened all the Winmai|.dat files that Ive tried, and for free. I used to have trouble with many attachments that were sent from the home office of my employer. Now, I can open them on my phone or iPad and resend them to my computer. This app solved a BIG PROBLEM for me.

Downloaded to view a windat file attachment…when I click to open and view, I am immediately prompted to pay $7 to upgrade, so I can open the attachement. No, thank you…it appears the free version is worthless……
I needed something to open files people send to my gmail from there outlook accounts.It is easy to use and easily reads DAT files in emails.This app works perfect and quick.Thank you!
Just what I needed. Worked without having to thinking. I was able to open the winmail.dat file and open the attachments within it. I have been worried about this type of file for along time, until the emergence of this software. I can receive winmail.dat files from the senders from my partner who are using outlook. It woks very well.
I needed something to open files people send to my email from there outlook accounts. It works perfect. Its hard to believe that its free. I made it. It solved a big problem for me. It is awesome and I can finally do business on my Mac again. If you are business man, get it.
Deceptive Marketing
Adveryised as a free app but can't use without it pushing for a pay version.
Doesn’t work
Printing is not working - useless.
Horrible app
Asking me to pay for an app to pay a bill. Just send me the bill!
not simple
Cannot delete after having not open a document. No intuitive, not simple, not acceptable.
Useless.
Will not print files to PDF or printer.
Functional
Functions like a good file viewer.
Attachment
The attachment: winmail.dat does not open on my computer! Why?
Very helpful
This application helped me open .dat files into excel file.
Poor design choices
If all you need is to open a file then this is fine, but anything more than that and it hits you with paywall after paywall. Not to mention, they ask you if you want to pay them every time they open a file and open another page for you to drag and open along with the actual e-mail which is also just useless clutter. Do not recommend.
Won't open doc!
Downloaded app. When put doc in, can see the title but not the content!
B.S. software
paid the 9.99 and it still wont open the file! keeps asking for more money!!!!
scam
won't open a file unless you get paid version
doesn't work
doesn't work
Fixed Fee
I switched to this to avoid annuity fees. I am old school and purchase one time licenses. Maybe I am a fool.
DO NBOT USE OR PAY FOR
I find it a scam to have to open a business document and have to pay $10 to even open the attachment, then the attachament brings me to a drag and drop that wont even open the file either!
winmail viewer
Will not open attachment with out Paying Money stated FREE
It doesn't work
I can't open attachements sent to me .
unable to open
terrible. unable to open
Will not open
My Mac is not opening documents.
The file worked great, but....
It was easy to open the .dat file. However, I needed to change the file from a .dat to .exe format and I was unable to accomplish that. I am still looking for an app that will allow me to change .dat to .exe
big rip off
paid for the pdf at 9.99 nothing happens except they take your money stay away
Not Intuitive or just didn't work.
Was not intuitive and did not work to open the file for me.
What a Scam
Opened one file successfully. When I tried to open another, it wanted me to pay another $9.99.
Does not work
Won't open email attachments unless you upgrade
requires the overpriced add ons to open anything
Not free. Can't open anything without the addons.
doesn't open all attachments
The one on my iphone opens the attachments. this one doesn't. Plus, every time I try something, I get pestered for a rating, so I'm giving it a rating based on the small amount of time I've been trying and it hasn't worked.
Not Working
I have paid for this product and even up graded it . Everytime I try toopen it, it is promptiing me to pay again.
impossible to navigate
impossible to navigate
Very easy
Do not need the frequently so it was perfect for me. Easy to installed and ready to go. Thank you
horrible
doesnt work
TERRIBLE
cannot open any files from any source on my macbook pro.
Not very intuitive
Not alot of directions come with this. It is not nearly as seamless as it needs to be to get .dat files opened. VERY frustrating
I can't open the stupid attachment!!!
My tax guy sent me an attachment using the .dat and I can't open it. It keeps telling me I have to buy something and I dont want it!!
Confusing "upgrade" options
Typical bait and switch. To view attachments you have to pay. The thing that makes it worse is that there is no real way to know what you are getting for the upgrade prices.
Winmail.dat
App indicated it was free. I was able to read a message but not any of the attachments without a charge. Don't indicate it is free!
LOOK FOR OTHER APPS.
This app should be free for limited use. First of all, I've never been able to get it to work and Second of all it costs 4 times what another app that does work, only to use it once a year.
Couldn't make it work for me. Help!
Couldn't make it work for me. Help!
Winmail.dat
Did not work on my iMAC
gret design
The user-friendly interface makes viewing the contents of these files a breeze. Just drag and drop, and you're ready to view.
work well
The extraction and viewing capabilities make this tool a must-have for managing winmail.dat, msg, and xps files. It has truly streamlined my workflow.
Incomplete
Allowed me to preview the winmail.dat file but did not allow to open the attachments within the file.
No updates in 5 years
In-app paid upgrade not received. Requested refund.
cannot use
have to pay for it to work, and i can't delete it without a password that i never signed up for
Not Free...Useless
The app is not free since you cannot actually open a file without paying for some sort of upgrade. That is not a free app.
I can’t open it with my iMac!
The only thing that occurs when I drag a winmail file into the app is that it wants me to buy the $19.99 pro. What’s worse is that I am unable to figure out how to get a refund for the two $7.99 purchases that I made here in order to rectify the situation. I’m open to suggestions.
Doesn't work -- Scam
I paid for the full $20 pro version via in App purchase and the software doesn't work. This is false advertising. It says that I have to pay to be able to open .msg files. I paid and the app does not open the files. Apple should investigate this scam and help people get refunds.
Useless Scam
I just got this “free” app to open some important files. It won’t actually open the files, just gives options for upgrading. Then I’m unable to retrieve my important files!!!! This is A SCAM!! I want my files back!!! Do Not Get This APP. I want my FILES BACK! This is just another crooked operation.
Why would I pay if the trial does not work
The point of a trial is to convince me your software is worth my money. If I can't get it to work, why would I pay $20 for it to maybe not work there either.
Bate and switch
I wanted an app that would let me open windat files. This app apparently lets you look at the file icons. It does not open the file. It opens a pop-up screen for upgrading…. I remove this worthless app to find that it has taken the file I wanted to open. Worthless!!! Time wasting and very annoying!!!
