I have seen guides to convert website to Android app using Android Studio. Is there any guide available which can teach me how to do the same using Ionic 1 ? Thanks.

If you just want to package a website up as a mobile app then the easiest way is probably [Adobe PhoneGap Build](https://build.phonegap.com/). If you want to build on Ionic or use Cordova plugins then you will most likely have to start from scratch.

When I last used it you just had to sign up and then upload the `www` folder of your website. Looks like you now have to do the same thing but through uploading it to a GitHub repo. All the [docs are here.](http://docs.phonegap.com/phonegap-build/getting-started/)
