Five screens. That's the whole app.

No wizard mazes, no toolbar walls. Every screen explains itself — you already know how to use it.

BROWSE

Open it. Don't unpack it.

A Finder-familiar list of everything inside the archive, including subfolders. Search finds a file in a 10 GB backup in milliseconds. Drag a row out to extract just that file.

Blue means compress and extract. Gray means extract.

Power tools, zero clutter.

⌘1

One-key extraction

Pin folders as Places. Press ⌘1 and the archive lands in Downloads — or drop files straight onto a Place in the sidebar.

A queue that never blocks

Compress, extract, and test in parallel. A file conflict pauses one item, not your afternoon.

Space to preview

Quick Look PDFs, images, and video inside the archive — streamed, never written to disk.

.001

Big files, small pieces

Split archives to fit any upload limit. Open a .001 and XZIP finds the rest of the set automatically.

Edit & save back

Open an archived file in any app. Hit save, and the archive updates itself. No unpack–repack dance.

Right there in Finder

Compress, extract, and run your presets from the right-click menu — without launching XZIP at all.

SECURITY

Honest security.

Real AES-256 on 7Z and ZIP. Passwords live in your macOS Keychain — never in our cloud, because there isn't one. Apps pulled from archives stay quarantined until you approve them.

And when a format can't fully protect you, XZIP says so — right in the dialog.

!ZIP shows filenames even with a password. Choose 7Z to hide them.

How XZIP compares.

Against the built-in Archive Utility and the usual suspects.
