How to use APK Readiness

Written and reviewed by the PWAs.app web platform editorial team.

01

What makes a PWA ready for an Android package?

A buildable website needs a reachable HTTPS origin, a valid manifest, a stable app name, a resolvable start URL and usable application icons. Standalone display and a maskable icon improve the Android experience.

Passing this public preflight does not authorize a build. PWAs.app requires the owner to verify email and domain control before using server capacity.

02

Readiness is different from Play Store approval

This tool checks technical inputs for creating a package. Google Play policies, developer account requirements, content rules and Digital Asset Links are separate release concerns.

Use the result to fix the website first, then claim the project in the owner dashboard when it is ready to compile.

COMMON QUESTIONS

APK Readiness FAQ

Short answers about what the public tool checks and what remains under browser or website-owner control.

Will this tool build the APK?

No. It performs a free read-only preflight. APK compilation is restricted to verified owners and monthly plan limits in the account dashboard.

Is a service worker required for the package?

A manifest and valid launch metadata are the primary packaging inputs. A service worker is strongly recommended for a resilient PWA experience but is reported separately.

Why is domain verification required after the test?

A public URL proves that an app exists, not that the person requesting a branded Android package controls it.
