HTTrack Website Copier

Xavier Roche

About this app

HTTrack is a free software (GPL) offline browser utility, allowing you to download (copy) a website from the Internet to a local directory, building recursively all directories, getting html, images, and other files from the server to your device.

HTTrack arranges the original site's relative link-structure. Simply open a page of the "mirrored" website in your browser, and you can browse the site from link to link, as if you were viewing it online.
HTTrack can also update an existing mirrored site, and resume interrupted downloads.

(This is the Android version of the popular Website Copier.)

Ratings and reviews

Exceptional utility for capturing multiple downloads from a site, based on criteria you specify. A plethora of powerful options to control WHAT TYPE, FROM WHERE, as well as HOW you download a websites files. Many years ago now, HTTrack was a huge help to me on PC and (as of today) has become an asset on Android as well. In 5 minutes I set it up to batch download nearly a hundred PDF files from a site that had each one listed as separate links, so they could be merged and referenced offline.

Disappointing. The core functionality is great, it's extremely flexible and powerful. The problem is it's quite hard to use unless you have experience and have read the documentation very carefully. The app needs better deep links to the docs in the relevant places. And it fails to save my settings for subsequent runs. At least on Linux I can easily re-run a command by pressing the "up" arrow key, but in this version all previous runs configuration seems completely lost.

Contrary to some of the reviews here this application works and it works fine! You won't be able to open downloaded sites with most modern browsers, but that's on them, not the application. You'll need to get yourself some other HTML viewer (the one included with MiXplorer does the job), and it won't download heavily scripted sites as well, but that's because of the hostile web design. It's free as well and I suspect a lot of effort went into creating it. Many well deserved thanks to developer!

What's new

Android 6 & 7 fixes (crashes at startup and/or during browse), SDcard is now selected by Additional Android 6 (Marshmallow) and 7 (Nougat) fixes related to crash at startup and/or issues accessing downloaded websites (crashes when asking to browse or see the documentation), and update to the latest HTTrack source codebase. Sorry for the Android 6/7 issues, related to drastic changes in policy from Android.as output.
