WEBSITE TO APP
Website to App — Convert One URL to Android, iOS & Desktop
Paste your website URL. Our pipeline wraps it in a native shell, signs the App Bundle, generates your store assets, and emails you a build-ready .aab. The same URL also builds iOS for the App Store and Windows (.msi), macOS (.dmg) and Linux (.AppImage) desktop installers — in parallel. One website URL → mobile, desktop, and up to 7 stores.

How to convert a website to an app, step by step
- 01 ·
Check your website (free, no account)
Paste your URL into the PWA Checker above. You get your score (manifest, service worker, icons, HTTPS) and the build your site will get: TWA or Capacitor. No manifest or service worker? The Capacitor build converts any HTTPS website.
- 02 ·
Configure your app
Create a free account and a project. Set the app name shown on the store, the package ID (e.g. com.yourcompany.yourapp — permanent once published, so choose carefully), the target market and the icon: upload yours or let AI generate one from your live site.
- 03 ·
Launch the build
The pipeline picks TWA (full PWA) or Capacitor (any HTTPS URL) automatically. The Windows, macOS and Linux installers are built in parallel.
- 04 ·
Get your files and ship
Signed .aab + .apk for Android, an iOS build for the App Store, .msi, .dmg and .AppImage for desktop, your store listing text, and the Digital Asset Links file (assetlinks.json) for TWA builds. The same signing key is reused for every update.
Mobile app vs mobile website — what changes
| Feature | Mobile website | Mobile app (SaasToStore) |
|---|---|---|
| Home screen icon | Browser shortcut only | ✅ Real app icon |
| Full-screen launch | Browser UI visible | ✅ No browser chrome |
| Store listing | ❌ Not listed | ✅ Google Play + App Store |
| Push notifications | ⚠️ Limited, depends on the browser | ✅ FCM (Android) + APNs (iOS) |
| Offline mode | Browser cache only | ✅ Service worker preserved |
| Install | ⚠️ 'Add to Home Screen' | ✅ Standard store install |
What your app gets
The point of turning a website into an app is the native capabilities a browser tab can't reach: a home-screen icon people tap without typing a URL, a full-screen launch with your splash and icon, and a listing that shows up when someone searches your product on Google Play or the App Store. Push notifications bring people back without a single change to your website. And because the app loads your live URL, every change you ship to the web is live in the app right away, with no store resubmission.
- Home-screen icon + full-screen launch (no browser chrome)
- Push notifications — Firebase (Android) + APNs (iOS)
- Offline mode when a service worker is present
- Signed Android App Bundle (.aab) + iOS build for the App Store
- AI-generated icon, feature graphic and phone/tablet screenshots
- Your own signing key, kept encrypted and reused for every update
One URL → every channel
| What you want | What you get |
|---|---|
| Android app → Google Play | Signed .aab + .apk (TWA or Capacitor) |
| iOS app → App Store | iOS build for App Store Connect (in SHIP) |
| Android → Amazon Appstore | Same .aab, published to Amazon |
| Android → Samsung Galaxy Store | Same .aab, published to Samsung |
| Windows app → Microsoft Store | .msix generated via PWABuilder API |
| macOS app → direct download | .dmg via Tauri |
| Linux app → Snap / Flathub / direct | .AppImage + snap + flatpak |
This breadth is the differentiator: most website-to-app tools stop at Google Play (and maybe iOS). SaasToStore treats one URL as the source for mobile and desktop, across seven stores, from a single one-time purchase on the SHIP plan.
Pick the path that matches your goal
Built for your no-code stack
The pipeline detects which build fits: sites that ship a manifest and a service worker get the lighter TWA build, while builders that don't generate a service worker by default — Bubble, Webflow, Softr — get the Capacitor build, with no extra configuration.

Frequently asked questions
Can I convert any website to an app, or only PWAs?+
Any website accessible over HTTPS works. PWA-compliant sites (with manifest + service worker) get a TWA build. Sites without these get our Capacitor build, which works with any URL and also passes Google Play review.
How is a website-to-app different from just adding to home screen?+
'Add to home screen' is a browser shortcut — it opens Chrome, shows the browser UI, and isn't listed on Google Play. SaasToStore wraps your website in a proper native app: no browser chrome, listed on Google Play and the App Store, downloadable by anyone, with a real app icon and push notification support.
Does one website really build for Android, iOS and Desktop?+
Yes. From a single URL, SaasToStore builds a signed Android .aab, an iOS build for the App Store, and Windows, macOS and Linux desktop installers. iOS is live and included in SHIP (€39 one-time), which builds all platforms at once.
What happens when I update my website?+
Content changes are reflected in the app immediately — no rebuild needed. The app always loads your live URL. Only structural changes (new icon, new app name, permissions) require a new build.
Can one website be published to multiple stores?+
Yes. SHIP and AGENCY publish to Android stores (Google Play, Amazon, Samsung) and Desktop stores (Microsoft Store, GitHub Releases, Snap, Flathub). One URL, up to 7 distribution channels — plus the App Store on iOS.
Do I need to know how to code?+
No. You paste your website URL, set the app name, icon and package ID, and launch the build. No Android Studio, no Xcode, no Gradle, no terminal commands.
What files does the Android conversion produce?+
Two signed files: an .aab (Android App Bundle), the format Google Play requires, and an .apk you can install directly on a phone for testing. The free test build is an APK only, with the SaasToStore logo: it lets you try the app, it is not meant for publishing.
How long does it take to convert a website to an app?+
The Android build takes a few minutes, and the Windows, macOS and Linux installers build in parallel. If you publish on Google Play, Google reviews a new app before it goes live, which usually takes a few days.
