What does decreasing ZIP file size mean?

What is it

Decreasing a ZIP file size means re-archiving its contents with stronger compression so the same files take up less space. filecompressor.app re-compresses every entry in your ZIP at the maximum DEFLATE level (9), all inside your browser.

No files are removed and no data is lost — the archive simply shrinks. Because the process runs on your device, your ZIP stays private, and there are no upload limits or accounts required.
