It’s a simple, browser-based tool that lets you open and read GZ-compressed text files instantly, right from your device.
What Is the GZ to Text Converter?
The GZ to Text Converter is a lightweight online tool that works entirely in your web browser. There’s nothing to install and nothing to upload to a server.
You simply select your .gz file, and the tool extracts and displays the readable text on your screen within seconds.
It’s useful for:

How the Tool Works
Using the converter is very straightforward:
1. Upload Your File
Choose a .gz file from your device or drag and drop it into the tool.
2. Processing in Real Time
A progress bar shows the file being decompressed. This helps especially when working with larger files.

Once the process is complete, the plain text appears in a large text box. You can scroll through it, read it, or copy any part you need.
4. Download as a Text File
If you want to save it, just click Download Text. The extracted content is saved as a .txt file with the same name as the original file.
