iZip
iZip is a file archiving utility for macOS that creates and extracts compressed archive files in formats including ZIP, RAR, 7z and others. It is used by home and business users who need to compress files for storage, share multiple files as a single download, or extract received archives. The app handles both compression and decompression workflows through a graphical interface. iZip v4 and above is a modern rewrite released in 2022 designed for compatibility with current macOS releases and Apple Silicon Macs.

1 suggestioniZip v4 and above already ships with native Apple Silicon support — the vendor explicitly states that versions from v4 onwards "natively support Macs with Apple Silicon processors (M1, M1 Pro, M1 Ultra, M2)" and modern macOS releases. If you are running an older version of iZip (v3 or earlier, also known as iZip Classic), update to the latest iZip v4+ by visiting www.izip.com and downloading the current installer; the newer build runs much faster on M-series Macs and will continue to work well beyond September 2028 when Rosetta 2 is removed. The vendor is actively maintaining iZip v4+ with regular releases and confirmed support for current macOS versions through at least Ventura. If you have an existing license or registration from an older version, check your email for the ZIPX registration archive and re-register within the new version if required.
