Android App Maker

Q: What is the difference between URL to APK and HTML to APK?

URL to APK makes an app that loads your live website — update the site and the app updates too, but it needs internet. HTML to APK packs your files inside the app, so it opens offline; to change it you rebuild. Full comparison.

HTML & URL to APK Builder

Turn a website link or your own HTML, CSS and JavaScript into a real Android app — signed APK to install today, AAB for Google Play tomorrow. No Android Studio, no Gradle, no laptop.

Two ways in

One Android app maker, two kinds of app

Pick by where your content lives. A live site becomes a URL app; files on your device become an offline HTML app.

URL to APK

You already have a website

The app opens your site full-screen, like a browser with no address bar — and with your icon on the home screen.

Content updates the moment you edit the site
Works with Wix, Blogger, WordPress, Shopify, Notion and more
Needs a connection; shows an offline screen without one

Get Website to APK

HTML to APK

You have HTML files

Your index.html, CSS, JavaScript and images are copied inside the app and load from the phone itself.

Opens instantly, works with no internet
Great for ChatGPT-made tools, quizzes, games and portfolios
Change something? Rebuild and install the update

Get HTML to APK

Make an app from…

Start from the site you already built

Each recipe covers that platform's quirks — custom domains, login walls, embeds and what to do about them.

How it works

What an Android app maker actually builds

Not a shortcut or a bookmark — a real Android package. Your content sits in a WebView (the same engine as Chrome), wrapped in the parts Android needs.

Point it at your contentPaste the URL or pick the HTML file / ZIP.
Brand itApp name, icon, theme colour, package name like com.yourname.app.
Build in the cloudA Gradle build compiles and signs it on a server — a few minutes.
Install or publishTap the APK to install; upload the AAB to Google Play.

FAQ

Android App Maker FAQ

What is an Android app maker?

An Android app maker is a tool that produces an installable Android app (an APK file, plus an AAB for Google Play) without you writing Kotlin or Java. The makers on this site wrap a website URL or your own HTML files in a native Android shell with your name, icon and colours, then compile and sign it in the cloud.

Is the Android app maker free?

Yes, both apps are free to download and you can build and install a signed APK without paying. Optional paid extras exist inside the apps for things like native bottom tabs or push notifications.

Do I need Android Studio or a computer?

No. You do everything on an Android phone: paste a link or pick a file, set a name and icon, tap build. The build runs on a server, so even an older phone can do it.

What is the difference between URL to APK and HTML to APK?

URL to APK makes an app that loads your live website — update the site and the app updates too, but it needs internet. HTML to APK packs your files inside the app, so it opens offline; to change it you rebuild. Full comparison.

Can I publish the app on Google Play?

Yes. Download the AAB (Android App Bundle) and upload it in Google Play Console. Google requires a developer account (one-time fee) and, for new personal accounts, a closed test before production. Your app also needs to offer more than a bare website to pass review — see what a no-code Android app can and can't do.

Can ChatGPT build an Android app?

ChatGPT can write the HTML, CSS and JavaScript for an app, but it can't hand you an installable APK. Save its code as index.html and put it through an HTML to APK maker. Step-by-step.
