1. I searched and found some posts about importing webapis (not what I’m looking for), or for an otherwise unexplained term ‘webviewer’ but as a rank newbie with Thunkable, the first, simplest thing I need to be able to do is take a website I’ve already invested a lot of time getting to work and make it available as a mobile app. I have several PWA makers (that I don’t like) and paid for the Advanced package so I could build native apps that I could at least start by importing my existing websites into. Given it’s the basic function of a PWA, I have to assume it’s one of the most basic things I can do with Thunkable too, but I just can’t find any simple way to do it yet. 2. I’ve searched under every related vocabulary terms I can think of (Thunk of???) but none of the terms seemed to find a matching result that helped. 3. I need to be able to do this over and over and over again as I have a wide range of related apps I’m building to match their corresponding websites too. 4. I DO want to add more functionality on the app if possible, but that can wait for version 2.0 if needs be. ---

It would be good for the staff to answer this but I’ve used Thunkable for quite a while and I don’t believe there’s any way to do that. Yes, there is a Webviewer component that can be used to display html or run javascript but it’s not going to allow you to import a website (other than for display). I suppose there might be a way to export your website and then import it into Figma which can then be imported into Thunkable but I haven’t tried that. ---

A) THANK YOU! I definitely appreciate the response and the insights. B) Crap! It’s the primary reason I paid for this thing. #FourLetterWords!# Okay, well, I’ll definitely have to talk to the team and see if this is still a fit for us. ---

If you have a responsive website, then you can take the url of your website and put it into a [webviewer](https://docs.thunkable.com/app-design/ui-components/embed-components/web-viewer). The webviewer should render your website or any website you put in the webviewer. While testing, I would reccomend using the Thunkable Live app so you don’t run into any CORS issues that commmonly occurs in web preview. ---
