Android APK Installer (CLI) βš™οΈ

A simple command-line tool to automate the installation of multiple APK files on a connected Android device using ADB.
This lightweight utility is powered by a single .bat script and is ideal for fast deployment, testing environments, or automation tasks.

  • ⚑ No GUI required β€” pure batch execution

πŸ›  How to Add ADB to PATH

  1. Open Command Prompt

  2. Run:

    echo %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools

    This will give you the path to adb.exe

  3. Open Start and search: Edit environment variables for your account

  4. Click PATH β†’ Edit β†’ New

  5. Paste the ADB path

  6. Click OK on all dialogs

  7. Restart any open terminals


πŸš€ Usage

  1. Place the batch file (install_all.bat) inside the folder containing your .apk files
  2. Double-click the file, or run it via Command Prompt:
    install_all.bat

Optional: Set a global shortcut

To simplify usage from any location:

set android_installer=C:\path\to\install_all.bat
%android_installer%

πŸ“‚ Example

πŸ“ MyAPKFolder/
