Duration: 15:12 min

Summary: In this lesson, we will discuss ADB (Android Debug Bridge) and Logcat. I will show you how to view the logs in Android Studio. We will also create some logging information in the java code and view the result in the Logcat window. But first, I will start my discussion on ADB. ADB is a very helpful tool. You can issue commands to see the current devices. You can also switch to a specific device and get some more information about it. As a matter of fact, you can also view the LogCat logs from ADB. Note that the ADB server is running on your computer, and the ADB daemon is running on the device. In our case, we will list the current devices, switch to a shell to issue other commands. We will also kill and start he server.
