CLUSTER ZIP-FILES-IOS · 26 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2011-01-13
Mobile file archiver apps
This cluster comprises mobile and web-based file manager/archiver utilities, predominantly iOS apps that extract, create, and manage compressed formats like ZIP, RAR, and 7z, often with additional file organization, conversion, or encryption features. The dated history before the index start is scattered across a 15-year span, with most months having one entry and occasional months (e.g., 2025-07, 2026-02) having two. Traction is led by github-mobile-upload with 3 stars, while other listed members have 0 stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
