WinZip, the popular file compression/uncompression software utility for windows has now been released for android devices. WinZip android app lets you view contents of a zip file at the click of a button. It’s a one way purpose solver app in the sense that, WinZip android app lets you ONLY view/extract the contents of a zip file. You cannot create a zip archive using WinZip.
Sad, as it may sound but the good part is that although, it is limited in it’s functionality (as of now) but the cleaner interface, fast response time, kind of, sort of make it up for lack of zip creation functionality.
