Remove app from device (fast)

This guide is a fast way to remove an apk you have been developing from the device:


  1. For easy access to the adb binary, create a folder in your home directory bin and place a symbolic link to your original adb binary.
    cd ~
      • mkdir bin
      • cd bin
ln -s ../Software/android-sdk-linux_86/platform-tools/adb adb
(if your original adb binary lives in /home/your_user_name/Software/android-sdk-linux_86)
  1. Re-login to your Ubuntu workstation and you are done.
Next time to quickly remove your app, open a terminal prompt (Ctrl+Alt+T) and type adb uninstall your.app.package.name.
