GZIP Viewer - Open GZ Files on Android and Online

GZIP is the standard compression format of the Unix world: the gzip tool has shipped with practically every Linux system since the early 1990s, and .gz files wrap everything from server logs to source archives. Android can do little with one, since the stock file manager has no reliable handler for the extension.

GroupDocs.Viewer Cloud lets an Android application show what a GZIP file contains without asking anyone to extract it first. The REST API renders the archived content as HTML, PDF, JPG or PNG pages, and the Android SDK for Java keeps the client side to a few calls. Users move between pages, zoom in and scan thumbnails.

Because one endpoint accepts more than 180 formats, the file inside the archive is rendered too, whether it is a report, a workbook or an image, and a password-protected document opens when the password is supplied.

A single archive needs no code at all: send the GZ file to the free online GroupDocs.Viewer app and its contents appear in the browser. For developers, a trial account and the API Explorer are the fastest route to a real test.
