Zipster is a file manager and archive tool for the files already on your phone. Open a RAR, ZIP or 7z, look inside before you unpack, and extract straight into the folder the archive is sitting in.
Everything happens on the device. A native engine built into the app reads and writes the archives — nothing is uploaded, and there is no account to create.
OPENS
RAR • RAR5 • ZIP • ZIPX • 7z • TAR • GZ • BZ2 • XZ • ZST • LZ4 • LZMA • Z • ISO • ARJ • CAB • DEB • RPM • DMG • WIM • CPIO • LZH • XAR • EGG • ALZ • CHM
CREATES
ZIP • 7z • TAR • TAR.GZ • TAR.BZ2 • TAR.XZ • ZST • LZ4 — with optional AES-256 password protection on ZIP.
One thing we would rather be straight about: no Android app can create RAR files. The format is proprietary and its licence forbids building a compressor. Zipster extracts RAR, and creates ZIP and 7z.
ARCHIVES, FOUND FOR YOU
The Archives tab lists every archive on the phone, so you can act on one without remembering where it went. Step through an archive like a folder, preview an image or a text file before extracting, and pull out a single entry instead of all of them.

WHY THE ALL FILES ACCESS PERMISSION
Zipster lists archives you never hand-picked, and extracts them next to the file they came from. Android's document picker can do neither. The permission is used for that and nothing else — there is no server to send anything to.
