ADB Command Generator

Pick what you're trying to do, fill in a couple of fields, and get the exact adb command ready to paste into your terminal.

What do you want to do?

APK File Path

Reinstall over existing app, keep data (-r)

Package Name

Package Name Activity Name

Action Package Name Permission

Common ones: android.permission.CAMERA, RECORD_AUDIO, ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, READ_CONTACTS, WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - only works for "dangerous"-level runtime permissions the app has actually declared in its manifest.

Only show user-installed apps (-3)

Package Name

Local File Path (on your computer) Destination Path (on device)

File Path (on device) Save To (on your computer)

Temporary Path on Device Save To (on your computer)

Output File Path (on device) Time Limit in Seconds (optional, max 180)

X Coordinate Y Coordinate

Coordinates are in pixels from the top-left corner. Use the Screenshot task first if you need to work out where something is on screen.

Text to Type

Key

Step 1 - run this in your terminal first (with the screen you want to fill already open on the device):

adb shell uiautomator dump && adb pull /sdcard/window_dump.xml .

(if multiple devices/emulators are connected, add -s your-device-serial right after "adb" in both places above)

Step 2 - the "." at the end saves window_dump.xml into whatever folder your terminal was open in when you ran the command (e.g. if your prompt showed C:\Users\Admin>, that's exactly where the file landed - check there first if you can't find it). Open that file, select all, copy, and paste it below:

window_dump.xml Content Advanced: the screen has text fields, but none were found (a custom-built input that does not report itself as a text field). Tick this to treat wide, tappable, labelled boxes as input boxes. Normal Flutter, Jetpack Compose, React Native and XML apps do not need it.

Action

URL

Filter App package name (optional - show only this app's logs)

Clear existing logs first (-c)

Device IP Address Port

Reboot Into

Brightness (0-255)

0 is dimmest (usually not fully black), 255 is maximum brightness.

Battery Level (0-100)

This only fakes the reported level for testing (e.g. low-battery UI) - it doesn't affect the real battery. Run Reset Battery Simulation afterward to go back to normal.

Tag (any identifier) Title (optional) Message Style

Device Serial (optional - only needed with multiple devices/emulators)

Generated Command

// Command will appear here

Pick a task and click "Generate Command" to see what it does.

Step 2 - run this separately, a second or two later

Some apps take a brief moment to validate what you just typed before their submit/login button actually responds - running this as its own paste, right after the first, gives it that moment instead of arriving in the same instant.
