Android Tipitaka is based on the free and open source E-Tipitaka project by Sutee Sudprasert:
https://github.com/ssutee/E-Tipitaka-for-Android
and is available on github itself:
https://github.com/yuttadhammo/atipitaka
Tipitaka files are taken from the VRI tipitaka here:
http://tipitaka.org/romn/
On first run, the app will download the required database file (20+ MB). That's the only time it uses the Internet; there are no ads, etc. If it doesn't download the database properly, download the file here:
http://static.sirimangalo.org/pali/ATPK/ATPK.zip
put it in your sd card directory and unpack it with a file manager.
