SiteSucker is an iOS app that automatically downloads websites from the Internet. It does this by copying the site's webpages, style sheets, images, PDFs, and other files to your iOS device, duplicating the site's directory structure. When SiteSucker downloads a webpage or style sheet, it scans the file for links and downloads the links. SiteSucker "localizes" the pages it downloads, allowing you to browse a site while offline.
SiteSucker lets you save the current URL and settings in a document which you can use to download the same site in the same way whenever you want.
SiteSucker should only be used to download files that a user has the legitimate right to access.
This is not a pretty app. No fancy or flashy UI, but very effective at crawling websites for offline viewing. It offers a number of settings for refining the crawl, even going so far as to include a regular expression match and parsing javascript to render a page before saving. Possibly too complicated for some but if you are more technical of mind this is perfect. The Emacs of the crawler world. Not highly intuitive but quite powerful and flexible.
A Perfect Job!

This review has been written within 15 minutes of me downloading and using SiteSucker because it did what I needed immediately, did it well and was easy to use.Although the other reviews I read before buying it were from years ago, I was heartened to see that the program had been updated as recently as one month ago so was pleased to know that what I was buying is still currently supported and that is a big factor for me.A nifty and very useful app that is reasonably priced which I am most appreciative of and thank the developer.
customisable, easy and just works
totally not a goat
Used this to download some documentation sites to read while on a flight. It does what it says on the tin and does it well.Highly recommend.
Great in theory

Great in theory but I think there’s a bug making it unusable. There appears to be a delay (the ui shows “Delaying”) before downloading each single page, which takes a long time. There are settings that look relevant but changing settings didn’t help.
Fixed a bug that could cause SiteSucker to crash if an error occurs while saving a web view's subresource.
Fixed a bug that could cause SiteSucker to crash if there is a problem with the web view's authentication challenge.
Fixed a bug that prevented SiteSucker from localizing URLs that have a fragment containing an HTML entity.
