What is an easiest way to port a PHP Web App to Android?

Question

I have a web application written in PHP. It have been running for several years. Now I want to run it as a stand-alone application on an Android smartphone or tablet. How can I do it?

Answer 1

There are php packages that run on andriod but as far as I know they are
only for developers. The install process would be to complex for users.

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

It may be possable to package up an app with php/mysql but I would expect
there are many hurdles.

Perhaps porting to another language that will run on android would be better.

Lua runs on Andriod and I think this language runs on Lua

Answer 2

There are simple web servers you can run on Android, and also
standalone PHP parsers too (i'm using one myself - search the play
store for php server). Is that the sort of thing you wanted.
