Setting ANDROID_HOME enviromental variable on Mac OS X

by

Where the Android-SDK is installed depends on how you installed it.

  1. If you downloaded the SDK through their website and then dragged/dropped the Application to your Applications folder, it’s most likely here:

    /Applications/ADT/sdk (as it is in your case).

  2. If you installed the SDK using Homebrew (brew cask install android-sdk), then it’s located here:

    /usr/local/Caskroom/android-sdk/{YOUR_SDK_VERSION_NUMBER}

  3. If the SDK was installed automatically as part of Android Studio then it’s located here:

    /Users/{YOUR_USER_NAME}/Library/Android/sdk

Once you know the location, open a terminal window and enter the following (changing out the path to the SDK to be however you installed it):

export ANDROID_HOME={YOUR_PATH}

Once you have this set, you need to add this to the PATH environment variable:

export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools

Lastly apply these changes by re-sourcing .bash_profile:

source ~/.bash_profile

  1. Type – echo $ANDROID_HOME to check if the home is set.

echo $ANDROID_HOME
