There are number of ways by which you can view PDF. 1)Using Web View 2)Using android PdfRenderer class (https://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/pdf/PdfRenderer.html) 3)You can use JavaScript(https://github.com/loosemoose/androidpdf) 4)You can use android Open source library for PDF reader. — ViramP, Mar 22 '17 at 05:37

String filename = null;
                File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() +"/"+ filename);
                Intent target = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
                target.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(file),"application/pdf");
                target.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY);

                Intent intent = Intent.createChooser(target, "Open File");
startActivity(intent);
