How to Open & Compress RAR, ZIP, and 7Z Files on iOS

Got a .rar, .zip, or .7z file on your iPhone or iPad that won’t open? Or need to compress and share files in seconds?
unZipper Pro makes it fast, private, and easy.

Why iOS Can’t Handle Every Format

iOS can open basic ZIP files — but that’s it. It can’t extract RAR or 7Z, and definitely can’t compress multiple files. That’s where unZipper Pro steps in.

The Modern Solution

unZipper Pro lets you extract and compress .zip, .rar, and .7z files — even encrypted ones. With our custom FAST mode, you can compress multi-GB files in just seconds. Everything runs 100% offline, with background task support and full integration with the iOS Files app and Dynamic Island.

How to Extract a File

Download unZipper Pro from the App Store.
Open the app and tap in the box to Select files.
Choose where to extract the contents.
Enter a password (if needed).
Done. Your files are ready to use.

How to Compress Files

Open unZipper Pro and tap in the box to Select files.
Pick a format: ZIP or 7Z.
(Optional) Add a password and set compression level.
Press compress and choose destination folder and confirm.
That’s it. Ready to share.
