What the automatic APK process does
A test APK lets you install the Android app directly on a device before store submission. Web2Application prepares the Android project from your app settings, builds the package, and makes the result available from your dashboard.
Before requesting the APK
- Confirm the app name, website URL, icon, and splash screen.
- Check required permissions such as camera, file upload, location, or media.
- Complete Firebase setup first if you want to test push notifications.
- Review the Advanced Settings and navigation links.
Generate and install the test APK
- Open your app dashboard and choose the Android APK request.
- Start the build and keep the page open while the status updates automatically.
- When the download is ready, save the APK on an Android device.
- Allow installation from the browser or file manager only for this test, then install the package.
What to test
Open every main navigation item and test login, registration, forms, checkout, file upload, camera access, external links, phone and WhatsApp links, videos, back navigation, keyboard behavior, and push notifications.
When you need a new APK
Settings loaded from the server can update when the app reopens. Changes to native Android code, permissions, package details, or a newly introduced native feature require a new build and, for a published app, a new Google Play release.
