Installing an Application on Android Using the Emulator
You can launch an emulator from the Package Explorer view to install the final binaries for Android on an Android device. The device must either be a physical device that is connected via USB to your machine. Or it can be an Android Virtual Device (AVD) that you configured in Android Studio. For more information, see

Mobile Development to use to compile mobile applications for Android devices. You can either configure the
ANDROID_SDK_ROOT environment variable as described in
