Can I unzip files without uploading them to an external server?

Yes! NexTools extracts ZIP archives directly in your browser memory using JSZip. Your files never leave your device, ensuring 100% data privacy.

Can I create a ZIP archive from multiple different file types?

Yes, you can drop any combination of photos, PDFs, text documents, or videos and bundle them into a single compressed .zip file in seconds.

Is there any file size limit for extracting or creating ZIPs?

Because processing is client-side, the only limit is your device's available RAM. Most devices easily handle archives of several hundred megabytes.
