MobyDroid

MobyDroid is a simple and cross-platform Android Devices Manager.
It runs on any operating system with Java support (Mac OS X, Windows, Linux, BSD, Solaris…).

THIS IS JUST A BETA RELEASE !

Prerequisites

Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.8 or later
ADB

Usage

Simply extract and run the jar file:

java -jar "mobydroid.jar"

Motives

I have been running linux from while now. And what I noticed is there is no GUI Android Devices Manager until now (QtADB didn’t work for me). Basicly I kept using ADB command line and kept waiting for someone to make something or some alternatives.
Some day a friend of mine kept complaining about the same problem. After that, I decided to make a simple Apk installer with a graphical user interface. And something lead to another.
And I wanted to share it for any one having the same problem.

So here it is !
