WinZip for iOS Works With iCloud Drive

WinZip for iOS adds to its cloud storage integration with iCloud Drive support, making it simpler  for iPhone and iPad users to navigate, zip, protect and safely share files through one  app.

A free update for current paid users, the WinZip for iOS is available for purchase through the Apple App Store.

WinZip compression makes it simple to Zip files and folders to create smaller attachments that are easier to send and enable you to maximize storage space across all your connected cloud accounts.
