ZArchiver lets you:

- Create the following archive types: 7z (7zip), zip, bzip2 (bz2), gzip (gz), XZ, lz4, tar, zst (zstd);
- Decompress the following archive types: 7z (7zip), zip, rar, rar5, bzip2, gzip, XZ, iso, tar, arj, cab, lzh, lha, lzma, xar, tgz, tbz, Z, deb, rpm, zipx, mtz, chm, dmg, cpio, cramfs, img (fat, ntfs, ubf), wim, ecm, lzip, zst (zstd), egg, alz;
- View archive contents: 7z (7zip), zip, rar, rar5, bzip2, gzip, XZ, iso, tar, arj, cab, lzh, lha, lzma, xar, tgz, tbz, Z, deb, rpm, zipx, mtz, chm, dmg, cpio, cramfs, img (fat, ntfs, ubf), wim, ecm, lzip, zst (zstd), egg, alz;
- Create and decompress password-protected archives;
- Edit archives: add/remove files to/from the archive (zip, 7zip, tar, apk, mtz);
- Create and decompress multi-part archives: 7z, rar(decompress only);
- Install APK and OBB file from backup (archive);
- Partial archive decompression;
- Open compressed files;
- Open an archive file from mail applications;
- Extract split archives: 7z, zip and rar (7z.001, zip.001, part1.rar, z01);

Particular properties:
- Start with Android 9 for small files (<10MB). If possible, use direct opening without extracting to a temporary folder;
- Multithreading support (useful for multicore processors);
- UTF-8/UTF-16 support for filenames allows you to use national symbols in filenames.

ATTENTION! Any useful ideas or wishes are welcome. You can send them by email or just leave a comment here.

Notes:
File modification in the archive it is the ability to update the file in the archive after changing it in an external program. To do this: open the file from the archive, select the application (if required), edit the file, save the changes, return to ZArchiver. You will be prompted to update the file in the archive when you return to ZArchiver. If for some reason you are not prompted to update the file, the modified file can be found on the memory card in the folder Android/ru.zdevs.zarchiver.pro/temp/.

Mini FAQ:
Q: What password?
A: The contents of some archives may be encrypted and the archive can only be opened with the password (don't use the phone password!).
Q: The program is not working correctly?
A: Send me an email with detailed description of the problem.
Q: How to compress files?
A: Select all the files you want to compress by clicking on icons (from the left of filenames). Click on the first of selected files and choose "Compress" from menu. Set desired options and press the OK button.
Q: How to extract files?
A: Click on the archive name and select suitable options ("Extract Here" or other).

Ratings and reviews

There have been so many things to love about this app over the years, but at the top of my list are, first, the ongoing development that keeps pace with all the “crazy” that goes on with Android OS rollouts, and second, the “List Item Size” interface setting that allows me to enlarge a thumbnail up to 250% without enlarging the text. I can comfortably view a thumbnail image and still see its full file name—no other app I have does that. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Hi. can you please add a dual panel mode? that would be great if you can add it to ZArchiver handling files would be much more easier and also more importantly please add a password manager for password protected zippeds of any kind that remembers the zipped by checking it's MD5 checksums to identify what password is for a specific zipped file rather than relying on file names or file paths, I know that feature is still not added that's why I'm asking if you add it thanks in advance

Never had any problems using this app. I have been using it for years. It's a standalone file manager with excellent compression/archiving capabilities. Rooted or not, the application for me is a must have for it's archive support, simple interface and options. I tried a lot of apps before this one. Password protected archives don't work on other apps. If there exists a better app, i don't need it.
