Macpaw acquires The Unarchiver

Macpaw:

MacPaw just bought the Unarchiver, one of the Top Free apps on the Mac App Store. The Unarchiver is an overwhelmingly popular piece of software for dealing with a common problem — different archive formats on Mac.

MacPaw developers hope to not only maintain but improve The Unarchiver. We plan a major facelift and a couple of new features. The app is going to get prettier and we’ll keep it updated for the upcoming macOS. Naturally, it will always stay free for all users.

Not sexy news but for us old timers who remember the days of Stuffit Expander and the like, this is kind of interesting. The Unarchiver is my app of choice for the job and I’m glad to hear it will continue to exist.
