Rar for android apk

Rar stands for "Roshal Archive," a type of compressed file. If you're familiar with zip files, it's the same idea: compressing one or more large files together into a single, smaller file, one that's easier to send and receive.

Since zip files are fairly simple, they can be opened by the basic file managers present on a PC or Android device.

However, rar files are a little more complicated and require specialized programs in order to open them up and extract their contents. In some cases, such as on Mac, you need to download third-party apps designed to extract these files.

There are a few options available for this pursuit like AZIP Master or ZArchiver, but one popular solution is the aptly-named RAR App.

This app functions the same as other major compression utility apps like 7-Zip or WinZip, but it's specialized for use on mobile devices. Plus, it's free, which is always nice, with the only trade-off being an occasional ad to sit through.

You can download the RAR App from its page on the Google Play Store and start using it righ
