Find the answer
before the meeting starts.

GanttPeek is built for people who receive schedules but do not need to author them. It opens the useful structure without the machinery of a full project-management suite.

01

Timeline at a glance

Navigate a scalable Gantt, inspect extracted dates, follow dependency paths, and zoom the schedule without changing the source file.

02

Task table that works

Search the task hierarchy and inspect extracted dates, durations, predecessors, and successors. The built-in sample demonstrates additional interface fields.

03

Resources, surfaced

Review extracted resource names, groups, and assignments. GanttPeek clearly marks capacity, rates, and allocation signals when the parser cannot extract them.

04

Take the answer with you

Export a paginated schedule report to PDF or the task table to CSV. The original MPP remains untouched.

02 / Private by design

Your client’s schedule
is not our dataset.

GanttPeek has no account, advertising SDK, analytics SDK, or cloud parser. The selected file is accessed through Apple’s file picker, processed locally in the app sandbox, and never uploaded.

03 / Compatibility

Four binary families.
Decades of schedules.

Support is determined by the MPP binary family stored in the file, not only the label on the Microsoft Project box.

Binary familyCommon producer generationsStatus
MPP 8Project 98 / 2000 eraSupported
MPP 9Project 2002 / 2003 eraSupported
MPP 12Project 2007 eraSupported
MPP 14 / Project 16.x2010–2019 verified; 2021, 2024, and Microsoft 365 share this familyFamily supported
What “supported” means

Core extraction covers task names, dates, durations, hierarchy and dependencies, plus resource identities and basic assignments when present. Password-protected files are rejected. Baselines, progress, constraints, notes, real calendar exceptions, custom fields, resource capacity and costs, source critical-path flags, and some assignment details are not yet extracted and are called out inside the app. Exact Project 2021 vs 2024 vs Microsoft 365 origin cannot be distinguished because those editions share the Project 16.x / MPP14 family. Corpus acceptance confirms robust family handling; it does not mean every proprietary field is decoded.

06 / Questions

Before you open the file.

How do I open an MPP file on a Mac?

Install GanttPeek, choose Open Project or press ⌘O, and select an authorized MPP file. The schedule is processed locally and the source file remains unchanged.

Can I open an MPP file on iPhone or iPad?

Yes. Choose an MPP file from Apple’s document picker. GanttPeek parses it on your device without an account or cloud upload.

Does GanttPeek edit or save MPP files?

No. It is intentionally read-only and never writes back to the selected MPP file.

Does a schedule leave my device?

No. Parsing happens locally in the app sandbox on Mac, iPhone, or iPad. GanttPeek has no upload service or analytics SDK.

What is included for free?

You can open and reopen one real project, explore the built-in sample, and use the complete viewer and export tools. The one-time Lifetime purchase unlocks unlimited projects across supported Apple devices. There is no subscription.

I bought version 1.0. Do I need to buy Lifetime?

No. Customers who bought GanttPeek before the free-download update receive Lifetime access automatically.

What about Project 2021 and 2024 files?

They share the modern Project 16.x / MPP14 family handled by GanttPeek, so this is family-level compatibility rather than edition-specific certification. Public acceptance files are producer-verified through Project 2019; dedicated 2021/2024/365 files are optional evidence before any stronger “tested with this exact edition” claim.

Can it open password-protected files?

No. The current parser rejects password-protected MPP files with a clear message. GanttPeek does not recover unknown passwords or bypass protection.

Is GanttPeek made by Microsoft?

No. GanttPeek is independently developed by Eutopix Labs and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Microsoft.
