I Have a zip file in gmail that I cannot open. When I click the link it does not give me the option of "open in" and when I "open" it, Safari is unable to read the file. Ind not understand why I cannot open the file or transfer the file to any app that can open it. Please help.
iPad Air, iOS 9.0.1
Do you have any apps on your iPad that support zip files, and which support 'open in' ?
Yes, I downloaded several apps (winzip, izip, drive) and was finally able to open the file and get the pictures to my photo album but the process was anything but smooth. My gmail still never gave the option of "open in" so I ended up having to send them to drive but instead of going to the app which I assume is easier? faster? it was through their website. All in all, it took hours to do something that should be easy. Do you know a better, any help would be appreciated.
Here is a good instruction how to get zip files unpacked or read the content inside it.
