You can get BetterZip 4 from Setapp here. Note: BetterZip isn’t freeware ($24.95 for the paid version), but a free trial is offered. I recommend BetterZip to those of you who often need to handle a different kind of files on a PC and Mac.
Those additional features are not available in The Unarchiver or Archive Utility. You can read more from this press release.Īlso, I just found a more powerful app called BetterZip 4 - which allows Mac users to not only extract many types of archives, but you can also use it to create archives or preview content of an archive without extracting. However, it’s worth noting that the app has been acquired by MacPaw (the maker of CleanMyMac, an awesome Mac cleaning app) and is now part of the MacPaw family. My MacBook Pro is now with the latest 10.13 High Sierra, and I have to rely on third-party apps to extract RAR files.Īs for the best rar extractor app for Mac, the recommendation stays the same - The Unarchiver. I was hoping Apple macOS could add this feature to its built-in Archive Utility app, unfortunately, it seems that Apple macOS team doesn’t plan to do this. Things have changed a lot when it comes to unrar apps for Mac. It’s been two years since I first published this post. Hi there, Thanks for reading this article.
