But while the app is 'free', and doesn't include certain annoyances, for some users it behaves in ways that you should keep in mind before you commit to using it. Add to this the stellar service shown on its store page, and you'd normally have a winner. Overall, Zip Opener is a great app for what it does: it unzips files in one tap, often working fast enough it's hard to benchmark. Hopefully, their stellar service will result in changes over time. If you unzip a file of a specific format, for example, you may or may not have it appear in your Downloads folder, followed by Zip Opener asking you to purchase the functionality needed to open it.Īll of this does not directly contradict anything Tiny Opener has claimed, but it does stretch the truth. Some of the functionality advertised and even mentioned in this review is locked behind in-app purchases. Similarly bizarre is the app's 'in-app purchases'. Many users don't experience this, though, and in our testing, not every use of the app will cause this.

While these apps have their own utility, it's an unwelcome experience to have this kind of thing happen. But while using or installing the app, you may be prompted to install other apps, some of which are not free. The app claims to be free of junk, spam and toolbars, and this is strictly true. Unfortunately, this goes hand-in-hand with one of the app's biggest flaws. This is huge for any app, in this case it's even a reason to try it: if you have problems with the app, whether they were mentioned by this review or not, you can talk directly to the developers, and they'll offer to help fix the problem. If you leave a review of any kind, positive or negative, they will reply, with scant few exceptions.

It bears noting that Tiny Opener has been a presence on the app's page, with no sign of stopping.

Best to try again! Truly good service, false advertising Unfortunately, it does struggle in one area: very large zipped files (1 gigabyte or more) can fail to open.
