How to convert HTML to APK.
Prepare your website files, create a signed Android test app and understand what to check before installing it.
Prepare your HTML or website ZIP
Choose one of these approaches for the browser builder.
Upload one nonempty HTML file directly, up to 10 MiB. Include CSS in a style tag and JavaScript in a script tag inside that file; separate local files are not included when you upload only HTML.
If your site has several HTML pages or separate files such as style.css and script.js, put them all with index.html and any images into one ZIP. It must be at most 10 MiB compressed and expanded, with up to 1,000 entries and at most 10 MiB per HTML file.
Example ZIP layout
Place index.html at the ZIP root, with paths matching the links in your HTML. A single enclosing project folder is also supported.
website.zip
├── index.html
├── pages/
│ └── about.html
├── css/
│ └── style.css
├── js/
│ └── main.js
└── images/
└── logo.pngFor this layout, href="css/style.css" and href="pages/about.html" reference files inside the package. For a live site instead, select Link to APK and enter its HTTP or HTTPS URL. The APK opens the live site, requires internet and does not store a copy. HTTPS is recommended; URLs are visible inside the APK. The website is not checked during the build; HTTPS apps block HTTP redirects.
Build and download the test APK
The website builder runs in a modern browser with JavaScript enabled and an internet connection for the shared queue.
- Open the APK CreatorX builder and enter the app name you want on the Android launcher.
- Choose File to APK and your HTML or ZIP, or select Link to APK and enter the website URL. Then select a PNG, JPEG or WebP image for the app icon. The browser builder accepts images up to 6 MiB and 40 megapixels.
- Select Build & download APK. Jobs wait in a shared queue with a 2-second pause after each build. Keep the page open. The download filename reflects your app name, with unsafe characters replaced.
- Transfer the APK to an Android 6.0 or newer device and test it. Android may ask you to allow installation from the app used to open the file. Only install APKs you trust.
The generated APK is a WebView wrapper. It is not a complete Play Store release: publishing requires additional release configuration, signing and compliance checks.
Test your app and troubleshoot
Review the generated app on a device before sharing it.
Pages, images or styles are missing
Check that the ZIP contains index.html, that filenames and paths match exactly, and that referenced assets were included. Keep HTML files under the per-file limit. In file-mode apps, external links may open in the device browser.
A feature works in my browser but not in the APK
The app uses Android WebView, not a full desktop browser. Some web APIs, plugins, background features and external services may behave differently or require connectivity. Test the features your project depends on.
My app name or icon looks wrong
Enter the launcher name and choose the image before building. Changing the app name does not rewrite text, titles or branding inside your website; edit your website files for those changes.
I cannot install an update
An update must have a compatible package ID and signing certificate. Keep the app name and browser signing key unchanged; changing the site address, device or browser data can prevent an update. Uninstalling an existing app may delete its data.
Signing, privacy and the API
Choose the build method that fits your needs.
Files are processed locally; the server coordinates queue tickets. A signing key is saved in browser storage for future builds; storage may be cleared or unavailable.
Files are uploaded to the server. Each request uses a fresh key, so API APKs cannot update earlier builds. Its file limits differ from the browser builder.
Website files are encrypted inside the APK to deter casual inspection, but the app must decrypt them to run. A determined reverse engineer can recover them. Do not put passwords, API secrets or sensitive keys in an app. The launcher icon and app metadata remain visible.
