GZ File Viewer - Open Gzip Archives on Android & Online

A GZ file is a gzip archive, the single-file compression format the GNU Project released in 1992. Built on DEFLATE, gzip became the usual way to shrink data on Linux and Unix, so server logs, database dumps and source distributions routinely arrive as .gz downloads. Android provides no built-in way to inspect one.

With GroupDocs.Viewer Cloud an Android app displays what a GZ archive holds, and no extraction utility has to be installed on the device. The REST API delivers the packed content as HTML markup, PDF pages, or PNG and JPG images, while page navigation, zoom and thumbnails keep a long compressed log readable on a phone.

Development begins with an SDK for Java, added as a Gradle or Maven dependency together with worked examples; requests may be tested in the API Explorer first, and a free trial covers the evaluation. Because the same endpoint accepts over 180 formats, code written for archives also opens the PDFs, spreadsheets and text files beside them. A single archive can be opened at once in the free online GroupDocs.Viewer app.
