RAR is the official app for Android devices of one of the most popular programs that exists on Windows and Mac for compressing and decompressing files: the legendary WinRAR. Thanks to this app, you'll be able to open files in RAR format and many others. You can even move files from one compressed format to another in a matter of seconds, all from the comfort of your Android device.

Compatible with almost all formats

Thanks to RAR, you can decompress any file in any of the following formats: RAR, ZIP, TAR, GZ, BZ2, XZ, 7z, ISO and ARJ, and you can also try to repair damaged compressed files. When it comes to creating your own compressed files, there are more restrictions, of course. You can only compress files in RAR or ZIP format. You can also preview file contents, review the history of compressed or decompressed files, compress with a password or even choose the processor cores used for compression tasks.

Add an extra layer of protection to your files

Whenever you compress a file and give it a password, you'll have the option to encrypt the contents of the archive itself. Thanks to this, you can prevent unwanted access to the file in question, making it impossible to guess the name or type of content that it contains. If a compressed file has been damaged, RAR lets you repair it. It is important to keep in mind, however, that the repair process is complex and doesn't always give you the results you might have been expecting. Additionally, cracking the password of a RAR file is very difficult, so if you forget it, you'll most likely be unable to recover its contents.

Differences between ZIP and RAR

One of the most frequent questions that most users have is the difference between ZIP and RAR compressed files. The answer is as simple as the fact that these are two different compression formats. ZIP format tends to be more compatible than RAR, but both have very similar levels of compatibility and performance. RAR, however, usually offers higher compression ratios. So in the end, your formatting choice comes down to preference. In fact, many users prefer not to use either and opt for 7ZIP instead.

A powerful editing tool

Download the RAR APK if you're looking for a good app to manage all your compressed files. Thanks to this app, you can decompress any compressed file you download from the Internet, as well as create your own RAR files from any you have on your device. This is a very useful tool for compressing any images, videos or documents that you want to store and protect.
