The thing you want to do is supported by tehe native files app on iOS. set the VoiceOver focus to the ZIP file, then swipe up or down until you hear decompress, then double-tap on the screen. The files app will now decompress the ZIP package and create a folder of it.

Thanks very much. It did not work quite that way, but that was close enough to get me there, I activated “open” and it automatically unzipped.

Hi,
Alright, then it seems that the behavior was changed by Apple. It's now similar as it works on macOS.
