## What is Convert Archives?

Convert Archives for iOS allows you to convert almost all known archive formats or files to the below mentioned archives. Convert existing documents, images or other file formats to these archive formats! And after the conversion you can use multiple ways of sharing them!

How can we convert almost every file on your phone? Well, the converting can be accomplished by uploading your file to the cloud where it will be converted and downloaded back to your phone (and deleted from our servers). This all occurs really fast and while the converting is being done you can just continue using your phone.
However, the latest version also supports offline conversion which doesn't require an internet connection.

Supported output formats:
7Z, ARJ, TAR BZ2, CAB, EXE, KGB, LZH, RAR, RUN, SFX, SHAR, TAR, BZ2, TAR GZ, XZ, YZ1 and ZIP

Examples:
- Create an archive from a website URL
- Add a password to an archive
- Create a self extracting EXE
- Convert existing archives to a different archive format

Features:
- Load an URL and convert it to an archive
- Use the 'Open with' option to load files
- Use the image gallery to load an image or take one using the camera
- Send the created archive by email
- Change the theme of the app
