BMP Viewer - Open Bitmap Image Files on Android

A BMP file that arrives by email or chat does not always open the way a JPG does. The Bitmap Image File format dates back to early versions of Microsoft Windows, and most BMP pictures keep one uncompressed record per pixel, so a single scan or screenshot can reach many megabytes.

One quick check needs no software at all. Load the free online GroupDocs.Viewer app in a phone browser, upload the picture, and read it on screen with zoom and thumbnails. The app costs nothing.

The same viewing can be built into your own products. GroupDocs.Viewer Cloud is a REST API that renders BMP pictures as PDF, HTML, JPG and PNG output. Its Android SDK for Java manages authentication and requests and arrives with worked samples, so a first preview needs very little code. Selected pages and password-protected files use those endpoints as well.

Because the service reads over 180 file formats, a viewer written for BMP also opens Word documents, PDF files and CAD drawings. The interactive API Explorer answers early questions, and a free trial covers the first integration.
