This wikiHow teaches you how to open and view the contents of an Egg archive with the ".egg" file extension, using Android. Egg files can be opened in its native PANDA3D on any computer, but since this program is not available on mobile, you will have to use ALZip to view the compressed file contents of an Egg archive. ALZip is one of the few zipper apps available that support the Egg format.

Steps

1
Download and install the ALZip app from the
Play Store. You can search "ALZip" on the Google Play Store, and tap the green INSTALL button to download it.
- You can find the app details at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estsoft.alzip.
2
Open the ALZip app on your Android. The ALZip icon looks like a white egg that says "ZIP" in an orange square. You can find it on your home screen or Apps menu.
3
Tap Not Now on the welcome screen. This will close the tutorial.
- You will only see this screen once when you open the app for the first time. The app will automatically open up to the file navigator the next time you open it.
4
Tap Allow in the pop-up. This will prompt you to allow the app access to your files.
- You will only have to do this once after installing the app. Once you give ALZip access to your files, you'll always be able to directly view, navigate, open, and edit your files in the app.
5
Tap ALLOW in the system pop-up. This will allow the ALZip app access to the files on your local storage.
6
Find the Egg file you want to open. Use the app's file navigator to locate the Egg file you want to open.

Tap any file to open and view it. You can tap any file in the Egg compression package's contents, and open it in a compatible app on your Android.
