    I do like Keka's interface and simplicity. It really does the job and I've not had any issues with it.

    While I'm a 7-zip fanboy, I absolutely adore Keka's app icon.

Not only will Keka handle esoteric archive formats with the respect they deserve, it also does this while sporting one of the cutest icons I have ever laid eyes on.

I am absolutely serious when I say that this is one app that you should choose based entirely on icon.

I would devote everything I have to caring for every single need this sweet icon has.

Ema hopefully you’re fulfilling the new icon as well, which is even more cute 😊

Yeah, this is one of those 100% reliable, 100% best-in-class apps. Any time I have un/compressing to do, I do it in Keka.

What is Keka?

Keka is a full featured file archiver, as easy as it can be.

With Keka you can compress as many files as you want in a bunch of formats. Divide files and protect them with a password is now a kids game. Just drop the files you want to compress to the Keka icon in the Dock or the main window.

Also Keka can extract lots of compressed files, from ZIP and 7Z to RAR archives, even parted ones. Just double click on those files and they will be extracted using Keka, or drop them to the icon in the Dock or the main window.

So simple, so strong

You do not even need to open Keka to compress a file, keep it in your dock and use it from there. Just drag and drop your files and folders to the Dock icon or the Keka window to create a slimmer version of them.

Privacy is very important

Share safely just setting a password and creating highly encrypted files. Using AES-256 encryption specification for your 7z files and Zip 2.0 legacy encryption specification for your Zip files.

Still too big...

If the files are really huge and they do not fit your mail or server, just split them into pieces. Don't worry, they will still expand to produce your original file :)

Keka can create files in these formats:

7Z ZIP TAR GZIP BZIP2 XZ LZIP DMG ISO

And extract all of these formats:

7Z ZIP RAR TAR GZIP BZIP2 XZ LZIP DMG ISO LZMA EXE CAB WIM PAX JAR APK APPX CPGZ CPIO
