Minimal Zip

Minimal Zip is a fast, clean archive tool — make a zip, open a zip, and get on with your day.

No file-manager maze, no toolbar soup.

Every archive on your device, in one list

The home screen finds the archives already on your device and lays them out as clean cards with

sizes and dates — tap one to look inside without extracting anything.

Peek before you extract

Open any archive and browse its contents — names, sizes and folders — before deciding to unpack.

Extract everything with one button; progress is shown honestly, file by file.

Create zips in seconds

Pick files or whole folders from the built-in browser, name the archive, done. Protect it with a

password (AES) when it matters.

Opens the formats that actually show up

- ZIP — create, open and extract, including password-protected archives

- 7Z, TAR, TAR.GZ, GZ, BZ2, XZ — open and extract

- RAR — open and extract

Private by design

No account. Compression and extraction happen entirely on your device — your files never leave

it. Minimal Zip has no backend and collects nothing about your files.

Free, with an optional upgrade

Minimal Zip is free and supported by ads (Google AdMob). Prefer a clean, ad-free experience? A

Remove Ads monthly subscription turns them off — cancel anytime in Google Play.

Minimal Zip asks for All files access because finding archives anywhere in shared storage,

extracting into any folder, and zipping arbitrary files (documents, APKs, folders — not just

media) is its single core purpose. Network access is used only by ads and purchases, never to

send your files anywhere.
