Pack a set of files into one ZIP or 7z, named the way you want, with the compression level you choose. It is one file to send instead of twenty. Nothing is uploaded on the way.

From the recording
6 files went in and Hangar wrote 1 file. It is the same run as in the recording, with the real names and sizes. Your originals are never changed.

How it works
Any file types, as many as you need. They all go into one archive.
ZIP opens everywhere, 7z is smaller. Pick Store, Fast, Normal or Max.
Give the archive a name. Clashing file names are handled for you.
New to Hangar? How to run a tool, step by step
Choose the format
The format decides who can open it, the level decides how small it gets. Photos and videos are already compressed, so Store packs them fastest with almost no size cost.
Opens on any computer without extra apps.
Best for sending files to clients and anyone else.
Tighter compression for the smallest file.
Best for archiving and big uploads.
Packs without compressing, so it is quick.
Best for photos and videos that are already compressed.
Every setting, explained in the Create archive guide Format · Compression · Archive name
The alternative
Your system’s built-in compress is free and perfect for zipping one folder. Hangar is for when you want a choice of format and size, the same way on every computer.
Who uses it
Bundle the final logos, exports and PDFs into a single named ZIP for the client.
Hangar for agencies and studiosPack the edited selects into one archive named after the client and the date.
Hangar for photographersSqueeze a month of documents into a compact 7z for the archive drive.
One app, one payment
The same app zips, unzips, renames and sorts whole folders, and handles your PDFs, images, video and audio too. One payment covers every tool.
A typical routine
Compress the images, give every file a clear name, then pack the set into one ZIP to send.
Every tool is free for 3 days, with no account and no card. After that, Hangar is a one-time payment from $45, with updates for the version you buy. There is no subscription.
Not yet. Archives are created without a password. To protect a PDF, use Encrypt PDF before packing it.
Not always. Some computers need an extra app for 7z, so choose ZIP when you are not sure what the other person uses.
Both. 7z can be smaller for text and documents. ZIP opens everywhere without extra software.
For ZIP, from Store, which packs without compressing, up to Max for the smallest file. With 7z, every level except Store gives the same result. Photos, videos and PDFs are already compressed, so they shrink very little.
No. You add files, not folders, and each file goes in by name into one flat archive, which keeps it tidy and predictable to unpack.
No. Your files are processed on your computer and never sent anywhere. Hangar sends anonymous usage counts to improve the app, never file names or contents, and you can turn that off in Settings.
Yes. A license works on any mix of Mac and Windows computers. Solo covers 1 computer, Crew 3 and Fleet 10.
Then pay once, from $45, for every tool and the updates for your version. No subscription. 30-day refund.See plans
