Convert a PWA to an APK for Google Play

A PWA can be added to a home screen from the browser, but most people look for apps in the Play Store. Build an APK and AAB from your PWA's URL and list it there.

Recommended settings

  • Start page: your PWA's start_url
  • Splash: your manifest icon on the theme colour
  • Bottom tabs: optional, if your PWA has no tab bar of its own
  • Push: OneSignal

Check before you build

  • The PWA works over HTTPS
  • Its own install prompt is hidden inside the app
  • Service-worker caching is fine — it keeps working in the app

Paste your site in the builder

Build a demo APK first to try it on your phone; Builder Pro builds the full app and the AAB.

Why put a PWA on Google Play

People search the Play Store, not your website, for apps. An APK listing makes your PWA discoverable, gives it reviews and ratings, and installs it in the way people expect.

No command line

Google's Bubblewrap tool also does this, but it needs Node, the JDK, the Android SDK and a keystore. The builder does the packaging and signing in the cloud: paste the URL, set the icon and build.

Keep your service worker

Your PWA's caching keeps working inside the app, so pages you cache stay available offline. Hide your "install this app" banner when the page runs inside the app — it no longer applies.

Questions people ask

Is this a Trusted Web Activity?

No. The app uses a WebView inside a native shell, which is why it can add native tabs, a splash, an offline screen and push without changes to your site.

Do I need Digital Asset Links?

No. That is only required for Trusted Web Activities.
