rate_review Editor's Take

LogicAPK editorial

ZArchiver sits at 4.1 stars across 1.4 million ratings on Google Play, and is still building an audience.

A rating in this range tells us the core loop works for most players; the usual friction points are cosmetic or balance-tweak territory rather than anything fundamentally broken.

ZDevs is the publisher behind this release; we'd suggest taking a quick look at their other titles on Google Play if the style clicks with you. The last visible update lands 2024-06-24, which is a small but useful signal that the team is still shipping fixes rather than treating the app as abandoned.
