About ZArchiver
ZArchiver is a powerful file compression and archive management app built specifically for Android users who need flexibility and control without the extra fluff. It’s developed by ZDevs and has gained the trust of millions thanks to its no-nonsense approach to handling archive formats like ZIP, RAR, 7z, and more — all packed into a lightweight interface that respects your privacy and storage.
One of the most appealing parts of ZArchiver is that it operates completely offline. The app doesn’t request internet permissions, which means your personal files and backups stay right where they belong — on your device. For users who are cautious about privacy or simply prefer offline tools, that’s a major plus.
ZArchiver covers a huge range of use cases. You can compress folders into various formats, extract files from nearly any archive type (including split archives like .part1.rar
or .7z.001
), and even preview contents before fully extracting. It supports password-protected archives, so if you're working with sensitive backups or shared files, you can keep things locked down without external tools.
The app also provides features beyond basic compression. Need to install an APK from a zipped archive? You can do that directly. Want to back up your OBB files or copy Minecraft assets into tricky directories? While Android system limitations apply, ZArchiver helps you go further than most file managers. Its support for split archives and editing capabilities make it a smart choice for power users.
Its visual design might look minimal, but that’s intentional. ZArchiver sticks to what matters: fast file operations, smooth multi-threading on newer devices, and support for UTF-8/UTF-16 so filenames in other languages don’t break. And if you’re on Android 9 or higher, you’ll even notice faster access to smaller files without unnecessary steps.
ZArchiver has grown from a simple tool to a must-have utility for anyone dealing with compressed files on Android. Whether you're managing game data, unpacking downloads, or organizing backups, it gets the job done — fast, private, and flexible. No bloat. No fluff. Just straight-up utility that works when you need it most.
