Top 10 website to app converters in 2026: free and paid tools compared

There are dozens of tools that promise to turn your website into an Android app. Some are free, some cost hundreds of dollars a month, and a few quietly put their own ads or logo inside the app you build. This list compares the 10 we think are worth your time in 2026, with the strengths and the catch for each one.

Disclosure: AppMint and Free HTML to APK are made by our team. We put them first because they are free, need no account and never add our own ads or branding to the apps you build. If your app shows ads, they are your own AdMob ads and the earnings are yours. We still tell you plainly where the other tools are a better fit.

How we picked

• Real output: the tool must give you an installable APK, an AAB for Google Play, or both.
• Honest pricing: we note what is free, what needs a subscription and what the free version adds to your app.
• Who it suits: a student with an HTML game needs something very different from a shop with 5,000 products.

Prices and plans are as published by each vendor in October 2026 and can change, so check the vendor's own pricing page before you pay.

Quick comparison

1. AppMint: the all-in-one app maker on your phone

AppMint (HTML & Web to APK) is an Android app that turns a website, HTML, documents, audio playlists or videos into a real Android app, right on your phone. In October 2026 it was the top Google Play result for "web to apk" in most countries we checked. Its companion site is freewebtoapk.com.

• Strengths: signed APK and AAB, custom icon and splash screen, file upload and download, camera and GPS access, pull to refresh, PIN lock, OneSignal push notifications, AdMob ads, and an AI mode that writes the HTML for you from a prompt.
• No ads in your app: AppMint never adds its own ads or branding to the apps you build. The only ads in your app are the AdMob ads you choose to add, and you keep the earnings.
• The catch: each free build asks you to watch a short video ad inside AppMint itself. Optional premium plans remove that.
• Best for: anyone who wants to build, monetize and update apps without a computer.

2. Free HTML to APK: free signed APK and AAB in the browser

Free HTML to APK works right here on this website and in an Android app. Paste a website link, upload HTML files, a ZIP or a whole folder, or start from one of the templates and edit the code online. You get a signed APK to install and share, plus an AAB for Google Play.

• No ads in your app: we never add our own ads, watermark or branding to the apps you build. If you turn on AdMob, those are your ads and your earnings.
• Strengths: no account, no watermark and no branding in your app. Tabs, side menu, splash screen, dark mode, offline page, downloads, AdMob and a JavaScript bridge for phone features. The signing key can be made from your package name, so you can rebuild the same app from any phone or browser.
• The catch: it builds Android apps only. The Android app shows a short ad in the builder before a build, unless you buy the one-time Remove Ads upgrade. Building on the website is free with no ads at all.
• Best for: students, HTML5 game makers, AI website builders and small businesses that want a clean app for Google Play.

3. PWABuilder

PWABuilder is a free, open source project from Microsoft that packages a Progressive Web App for app stores. For Android it creates a Trusted Web Activity, which shows your site in Chrome without a browser bar.

• Strengths: free, well documented, backed by Microsoft and widely recommended by web developers.
• The catch: your site must already be a valid PWA with a manifest and service worker, and you must set up Digital Asset Links on your domain. A plain HTML file or a site without HTTPS will not work.
• Best for: developers who already maintain a PWA.

4. WebIntoApp

WebIntoApp turns a URL or HTML into an APK and AAB online.

• Strengths: quick to try, and a one-time paid option gives you a dedicated app with your own keystore.
• The catch: free apps show WebIntoApp's own ads, and free download links expire after a few days.
• Best for: quick tests before you commit to a tool.

5. Median.co (formerly GoNative)

Median.co builds native Android and iOS wrappers for websites and web apps, with a large library of native plugins.

• Strengths: iOS and Android from one project, push notifications, in-app purchases, biometrics and good reviews from paying teams.
• The catch: free builds show "Powered by Median", and publishing needs a paid plan, which many small developers find expensive.
• Best for: companies that need both stores and are happy to pay for it.

6. AppsGeyser

AppsGeyser is one of the oldest free app makers, with templates for websites, stores, games and more.

• Strengths: many templates and built-in monetization.
• The catch: free apps carry ads with a revenue share, and removing them needs a paid plan. Reviews often mention the ads.
• Best for: template apps where you do not mind shared ad revenue.

7. Appy Pie

Appy Pie is a large no-code platform with a drag-and-drop app builder and a website to app option.

• Strengths: a big brand, lots of features and support channels.
• The catch: its converter takes a website URL rather than your own HTML files, and publishing costs a monthly fee per app. Billing complaints are common in reviews.
• Best for: people who prefer a visual builder and a managed service.

8. webtoapp.design

webtoapp.design converts websites into polished Android and iOS apps with a clean setup flow.

• Strengths: good design, push notifications and help with store publishing.
• The catch: paid only after a 14-day trial.
• Best for: businesses that want a polished result and do not mind a subscription.

9. AppMySite

AppMySite focuses on WordPress, WooCommerce and Shopify, and syncs products and posts into a native app.

• Strengths: real store features such as product sync, carts and categories.
• The catch: monthly plans, and some reviewers report big price jumps and extra steps to remove branding.
• Best for: online shops on WordPress or Shopify.

10. WebViewGold

WebViewGold sells a ready-made WebView app template that you configure and build yourself.

• Strengths: one-time purchase, full source code, push, biometrics and in-app purchase options.
• The catch: you need Android Studio (or Xcode for iOS) and some technical comfort to build it.
• Best for: developers who want source code and control.

Which one should you choose?

• You only have a phone: AppMint or the Free HTML to APK Android app.
• You have HTML files, a ZIP or an AI-made site and want a clean, free result: Free HTML to APK on the web.
• Your site is already a PWA: PWABuilder.
• You need iOS too and have a budget: Median.co or webtoapp.design.
• You run a WooCommerce or Shopify store: AppMySite.

FAQ

Is there a truly free website to APK converter with no watermark?

Yes. Free HTML to APK builds a signed APK and an AAB on the web with no account and no watermark, and AppMint is free with a short ad per build inside AppMint. Neither one adds its own ads to the app you build. Several other free tools add their own ads or a "powered by" label to your app, so check before you publish.

Can I publish these apps on Google Play?

Yes, if the tool gives you an AAB signed with a key you keep. Google Play needs an AAB for new apps. Read our Google Play guide and the closed testing guide if you have a new personal developer account.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. Every tool on this list works without code for a basic website app. Coding helps when you want custom features, and an AI chatbot can write that code for you.
