The AI app builder that ships production-ready web apps in minutes

Bolt.new is an AI-powered full-stack development environment that runs entirely in the browser. Describe what you want to build — a SaaS dashboard, a booking app, a productivity tool — and Bolt generates working React or Vue code with a complete backend in minutes.

Projects built on Bolt.new are deployed instantly to the web via StackBlitz infrastructure, giving every app a public URL immediately. Bolt supports Supabase for databases and authentication, Stripe for payments, and connects to any REST or GraphQL API your app needs.

Millions of developers, indie hackers, and non-technical founders use Bolt.new to ship software faster than traditional development — often completing a full MVP in a single afternoon. The result is a polished, production-ready web application at a shareable URL. Free App Maker takes that URL and makes it an Android app.

3.9 billion Android users can't install websites from a browser

Your Bolt.new app is powerful — but it lives only in a browser tab. Android users can't find it in the Play Store, can't add it to their home screen with a real icon, and lose the app the moment they clear their browser history. That's a massive distribution gap for any serious product.

A native Android APK solves all of this. Users install it once, tap the icon on their home screen, and the app opens instantly — no URL to remember, no browser chrome in the way. Push notifications, offline caching, and full-screen immersion become available to your app.

For startups and indie founders, distributing via Android APK also means you can reach users through direct download links, beta testing groups, or enterprise MDM systems — without waiting for Play Store approval. Share an APK link and your Bolt app is on anyone's phone in seconds.

Convert Your Bolt App to Android in 3 Steps

No Android Studio. No Gradle. No Java. Just paste your URL and your APK is ready in about a minute.

Get your Bolt.new URL

Open your Bolt.new project and click the Deploy or Share button in the top-right corner. Copy the live URL — it will look like https://your-app.bolt.new or your custom domain if you connected one. Make sure the project is set to public, not private.

Configure your Android app

Paste your URL into Free App Maker at freeappmaker.ai. Enter a name for your Android app (this appears under the home screen icon) and your email address. Optionally upload a square 1024×1024 PNG icon — if you skip it, we generate a clean default icon automatically from your app name.

Download and install your APK

Free App Maker wraps your Bolt.new URL into a WebView APK, signs it, and emails you a secure download link within 60 seconds. Open the link on any Android device, tap Install, and your Bolt app runs as a standalone app with its own home screen icon — just like any other Android application.

Who Converts Bolt.new Apps to Android?

From solo founders to enterprise teams, converting a Bolt app to Android opens distribution channels the web alone can't reach.

Startup Founders & Indie Hackers

You built your MVP in Bolt.new in a weekend. Converting it to an Android APK lets you distribute it to beta users directly — no Play Store listing required yet. Share the APK link in your Discord, Reddit post, or Product Hunt launch and get real feedback from real Android users immediately.

Agencies & Freelancers

Your client asked for an Android app on top of the web version you built in Bolt. Converting the live Bolt URL to an APK delivers an Android app in minutes — not months. Present it at the client meeting, get sign-off, and upload to the Play Store when they're ready to launch officially.

Students & Hackathon Teams

Hackathon judging panels often request both a web demo and an installable Android submission. Converting your Bolt.new project to an APK takes 60 seconds and gives your team a legitimate Android entry — a significant advantage over projects that are web-only or crash during the live demo.

Enterprise Internal Tools

Internal dashboards, field-worker tools, and warehouse management apps built in Bolt.new can be distributed as APKs through your company's Mobile Device Management (MDM) system. No Play Store account or listing needed — deploy directly to company-managed Android devices.

What Works — and What to Test First

Free App Maker uses a full Android WebView, which means most modern web features work exactly as in Chrome. Here's a practical breakdown for Bolt.new projects.

✅ Works out of the box

  • React, Vue, and SvelteKit frontends built in Bolt
  • Supabase Auth (email/password, magic links)
  • Supabase Realtime and PostgreSQL queries
  • Firebase Firestore, Auth, and Storage
  • REST API and GraphQL calls to any backend
  • WebSocket connections over wss://
  • Stripe payment flows and Stripe Elements
  • CSS animations, Tailwind CSS, shadcn/ui
  • File uploads and downloads
  • Responsive layouts optimized for mobile viewports

⚠️ Test before publishing to Play Store

  • Google OAuth sign-in (opens external browser — works, adds one extra step)
  • Clipboard API — requires HTTPS and user gesture (works on modern Android)
  • Camera and microphone access — requires explicit permission prompts in AndroidManifest
  • Deep links to external apps (maps, phone dialers) — test on a real device
  • PWA install prompts — suppressed inside a WebView (expected behavior)
  • Heavy Canvas or WebGL scenes — test on mid-range devices for performance

6 Reasons Bolt Builders Choose Free App Maker

Beyond the speed, there are real technical and strategic advantages to converting your Bolt.new app with us.

Live updates — no new APK needed

Because the APK loads your live Bolt.new URL at runtime, every change you publish in Bolt.new appears in the Android app instantly. No App Store review, no new build, no forced update prompt for users — just open the app and get the latest version.

Signed APK — install and distribute anywhere

Every APK we generate is digitally signed. Android installs it without "untrusted source" warnings (once you enable side-loading on the device). The same signature passes Play Store submission requirements without extra steps on your end.

60-second builds — not 60-minute

A full Gradle build in Android Studio takes 5–20 minutes even on a fast machine. Free App Maker's build pipeline runs server-side in optimized containers and delivers your APK in under 60 seconds. Iterate quickly — test a new app name or icon in minutes.

Icon generation for all Android sizes

Android requires app icons at 7 different resolutions — from 48×48 to 192×192 px. Free App Maker auto-generates all required sizes from a single 1024×1024 PNG. No Figma, no Photoshop, no manual export needed. We generate a default icon if you don't have one.

No branding, no lock-in, yours to keep

The APK you download belongs entirely to you. There is no Free App Maker splash screen, no watermark, and no attribution requirement. Re-sign it with your own keystore, upload it to Play, distribute it via your own website, or send it directly to clients — zero restrictions.

Works on 99%+ of Android devices

Our APKs target Android 5.0 (Lollipop) and above — covering over 99% of active Android devices worldwide. Whether your users run Samsung Galaxy budget phones or Pixel flagships, the WebView rendering engine is current and automatically maintained by Google through Play Services.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about converting a Bolt.new app to an Android APK.

Does Free App Maker work with Bolt.new apps?
Yes. Any Bolt.new project that has a public URL — whether on a bolt.new subdomain or a custom domain — can be wrapped as an Android APK. Free App Maker loads your Bolt app inside a secure Android WebView, so the full interactive experience works exactly as it does in a browser.
Will my Bolt app's backend (Supabase, Firebase) keep working in the Android APK?
Yes. The APK wraps the live URL — all API calls, authentication flows, database queries, and real-time subscriptions happen over the internet exactly as they do in the browser. Supabase Auth, Supabase Realtime, Firebase Firestore, Firebase Auth, and any other cloud backend all work without any changes to your Bolt project.
Does the Android app auto-update when I push changes in Bolt.new?
Yes. Because the APK loads your live Bolt.new URL at runtime, every change you publish in Bolt.new appears in the Android app immediately — no new build, no new APK required. Users just reopen the app to get the latest version. This is one of the biggest advantages of the WebView approach for actively developed apps.
Can I upload the APK to Google Play Store?
Yes. The APK is signed and can be submitted to Google Play. You will need a Google Play Developer account ($25 one-time fee) and should review Google Play's policies for WebView apps. For production Play Store submissions, we recommend generating your own release keystore and re-signing the APK with it — this ensures you control your own signing key for future updates.
Is this completely free? Any hidden costs?
Yes — Free App Maker is completely free. You paste a URL, enter your email, and receive a signed APK download link at zero cost. There is no account, no credit card, no subscription, no per-build fee, and no branding added to your APK. The service is funded by MyMind Studio as a free tool for the builder community.
What is the minimum Android version the APK supports?
APKs built by Free App Maker target Android 5.0 (API level 21) and above. This covers over 99% of active Android devices worldwide as of 2026. The Android System WebView — the rendering engine that runs your Bolt app — is updated automatically through Google Play Services on all Android 5.0+ devices, ensuring compatibility with modern web APIs.
Does Bolt.new's OAuth or social login work inside the Android WebView?
Most authentication flows work. Email/password auth and magic links work natively. Google OAuth and GitHub OAuth open an external Chrome tab for the authorization step, then redirect back to the app — this round-trip works on Android, though it adds one extra step compared to desktop. Test your specific auth flow on a real device before submitting to Play Store.
My Bolt app uses WebSockets for real-time features. Will they work?
Yes. Android's WebView fully supports WebSocket connections over wss:// (secure WebSockets). Real-time features like Supabase Realtime, live chat, collaborative cursors, or any other WebSocket-based functionality will work inside the Android APK exactly as they do in the browser. Ensure your backend uses wss:// (not ws://) — Android 9+ blocks non-secure WebSocket connections.
