What this app is. What it isn’t. What you could build.

One-liner

A no-frills file extractor for iOS that lets users unzip ZIP files quickly without needing cloud storage or complex workflows.

Strengths

Fast extraction of ZIP files directly on-device (review: 'Unzips instantly, no lag')
Supports password-protected archives (review: 'Works with my encrypted ZIPs')
Simple, minimal interface with no ads or in-app purchases (review: 'Clean and straightforward')
Handles large ZIP files up to 1GB (review: 'Extracted a 700MB file without issues')
No need to sync with iCloud or third-party apps (review: 'Just drag and drop from Files app')

Weaknesses

Only supports ZIP format—no support for RAR, 7Z, or other common archive types (review: 'Wish it supported RAR files')
No batch extraction feature (review: 'Had to extract each file one by one')
Limited file preview—can't view contents before extracting (review: 'Would be great to see what’s inside first')
No progress indicator during extraction (review: 'Sometimes I don’t know if it’s working')
No way to save extracted files to custom folders (review: 'Always dumps into Downloads')

Opportunities

Add support for RAR/7Z/ZIPX formats to capture users stuck with non-ZIP archives
Introduce batch extraction with selection and folder destination options
Build a file preview pane to show archive contents before extraction
Add progress bar and pause/resume functionality for large files
Enable direct integration with Files app and custom folder destinations
