THE QUICK GUIDE

A link. A wrapper. A new home.

Here’s exactly what Sitelet does, what you download, and how to make it yours. No complicated setup. No fine-print surprises.

STEP 1

Start with your website

Paste the full website URL and give the app a name. Use a site you own or have permission to distribute. The URL is saved in this browser so you can continue without an account.

STEP 2

Preview it. Pick your opening mode.

Switch between mobile and desktop previews. “Open original website” is the recommended mode: an app launcher opens the exact URL in a browser tab. “Show inside the app” puts the site in an iframe, if the site permits it. Embedded sign-in, cookies, payments, and other features may behave differently.

STEP 3

Create and download the wrapper

Select “Create my free app” to generate real files in your browser. Download the ZIP for a web-app package, or the single HTML launcher to open locally. There is no account, payment, or app-store submission.

STEP 4

Host it, then add it to your home screen

Unzip the package and upload all its files to an HTTPS static host of your choice. Keep the manifest, scripts, and icons beside index.html as arranged in the ZIP. Open the hosted index.html in a supported browser and use its Install app or Add to Home Screen menu. Installation wording and availability vary by device and browser. Hosting is separate from this free conversion.

Your website is not rewritten.

  • No source files, content, or data on the original website are edited.
  • The wrapper points to your exact URL; it does not copy or scrape your website.
  • The generated service worker caches only the wrapper’s own files, never the original website.
  • Your site still needs an internet connection. Normal actions performed on it can change its data.

Know the limits before you download.

A web app, not a native package. The download is a progressive web app (PWA), not an Android APK or iPhone IPA. Sitelet does not publish to any app store.

A launcher preserves the original context. Recommended original mode opens the website in a browser tab. It does not make the original website run inside a standalone app window.

Some websites cannot be embedded. We do not bypass security headers or browser restrictions. If the preview is blank or features do not work, use original mode. The converter cannot guarantee that an iframe behaves exactly like the original site.

No hidden hosting. Conversion and download are free. Choose your own HTTPS host; any hosting or distribution costs are separate. Opening the HTML file locally is only a preview, not an installed app.

Saved on this device. Only the website URL, app name, opening mode, and conversion status are kept in your browser’s local storage. Files are generated in your browser. Progress is not synced across devices and is lost if browser storage is cleared.
