<p>Android Studio installs the app on your connected device and starts it.</p>

<h3>Run the app from a command line</h3>

<p>Open a command-line and navigate to the root of your project directory.

  Use Gradle to build your project in debug mode, invoke the <code>assembleDebug</code> build task

  using the Gradle wrapper script (<code>gradlew assembleRelease</code>).

  <p>This creates your debug <code>.apk</code> file inside the module <code>build/</code>

  directory, named <code>app-debug.apk</code>.  </p>

  <p>On Windows platforms, type this command:</p>

<pre>

> gradlew.bat assembleDebug

</pre>

<p>On Mac OS and Linux platforms, type these commands:</p>

<pre>

$ chmod +x gradlew

$ ./gradlew assembleDebug

</pre>

  <p>After you build the project, the output APK for the app module is located in

  <code>app/build/outputs/apk/</code>

  <p class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> The first command (<code>chmod</code>) adds the execution

  permission to the Gradle wrapper script and is only necessary the first time you build this

  project from the command line.</p>

  <p>Make sure the Android SDK <code>platform-tools/</code> directory is included in your

  <code>PATH</code> environment variable, then execute:

  <pre class="no-pretty-print">$ adb install app/build/outputs/apk/app-debug.apk</pre><p>

  <p>On your device, locate <em>MyFirstApp</em> and open it.</p>

<p>That's how you build and run your Android app on a device!

<h2 id="Emulator">Run on the Emulator</h2>

<p>Whether you're using Android Studio or the command line, to run your app on the emulator you need

When you do, <em>My First App</em> appears on the emulator screen.</p>

<h3>Run your app from the command line</h3>

 <ol>

  <li>Build the project from the command line. The output APK for the app module is located in

  <code>app/build/outputs/apk/</code>.</li>

  <li>Make sure the Android SDK <code>platform-tools/</code> directory is included in your

  <code>PATH</code> environment variable.</li>

  <li>Execute this command:

   <p>

   <pre class="no-pretty-print">$ adb install app/build/outputs/apk/apk-debug.apk</pre>

   </p>

  </li>

  <li>On the emulator, locate <em>MyFirstApp</em> and open it.</li>

 </ol>

<p>That's how you build and run your Android app on the emulator!
