Hi, can i deploy an app toba real android device without the emulatore?
From what I know, I don’t think so. I suppose you can go the long route and upload your project onto git, then build artifact that you can use? It would be nice if IDX allow us to access adb through IDX like how the Android Flash Tool can use ADB (I assume), despite being a web app.
You can use Firebase App Distribution, I believe. The firebase CLI is preinstalled, so you can start from there.
The easiest way to do it type flutter build apk from the terminal, it should display the path to the output of the apk. From there download the file
I was looking for a solution as well, and came across this gist which helps you do exactly that.
Thought it might be helpful to somebody in this thread.
Thanks for sharing this solution! Testing on a real Android device is an important step because it helps catch performance issues and hardware-specific behavior that emulators may not reveal. Real-device testing often leads to a smoother and more reliable user experience.
