CoverZip
Browse ZIP comics comfortably from Finder
A macOS app for reading comics and image collections stored inside ZIP files. It adds cover thumbnails to Finder through a Quick Look extension, launches the viewer with the space bar, and keeps reading smooth with spreads, reading direction options, and GPU read-ahead caching.

See it before you even open it.
From Finder Quick Look to a fast dedicated viewer, it refreshes the entire ZIP comic reading flow.
Quick Look thumbnails
Automatically shows the first image in the ZIP, prioritizing cover-like filenames, as the Finder icon so you can recognize the content immediately.
Quick Look viewer
Launches the comic viewer with the space bar. Page turns, two-page spreads, and left-to-right or right-to-left reading are all available directly inside Quick Look.
Built-in app viewer
Supports arrow-key navigation, 10-page jumps, and first/last page moves. A page slider and thumbnail strip let you jump directly to any page.
Routing rules
Uses filename and folder rules to decide which app should open a ZIP on double-click. Partial match, prefix match, and regular expression modes are supported.
Spread view and reading direction
Supports two-page spread composition and switching between left-bound and right-bound reading to match different comic styles.
Resume where you left off
Remembers the last page and settings for each ZIP file, keeping the latest 100 entries so you can continue reading automatically next time.
Slideshow mode
Can advance pages automatically at a configured interval, which is handy when you want hands-free reading.
GPU read-ahead cache
Uses GPU pre-rendering and read-ahead caching for smooth performance even with large ZIP files, and releases memory automatically under pressure.
