Frequently asked questions

What kind of archives can I extract?

This tool extracts standard .zip archives. Drop one in and every file inside is decompressed and listed for download. Folders inside the archive are unpacked too, with files shown by their full path.

Is my ZIP file uploaded anywhere?

No. The archive is read and unpacked entirely in your browser, on your own device. Nothing is ever uploaded to a server, so your files stay completely private.

Can it open password-protected ZIP files?

No. Password-encrypted or AES-encrypted ZIP archives are not supported. Only standard, unencrypted .zip files can be extracted.

Is there a file-size limit?

There is no fixed limit, but because the archive is decompressed in your device's memory, very large ZIP files may be slow or run out of memory on phones and low-RAM computers.

How does the unzipping work?

Your .zip file is loaded into memory and decompressed locally using a fast in-browser library. Each file inside is extracted and offered as a direct download — no internet processing required.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes. The ZIP extractor runs in any modern browser on Android, iPhone, and iPad, as well as desktop, so you can unzip files without installing an app.
