Install and update Android Studio (Beta) on Ubuntu 14.04



Before you set up Android Studio, be sure you have installed JDK 6 or greater (the JRE alone is not sufficient), or Install Oracle JDK 8 on Ubuntu 14.04.

The installation is very straightforward:
  • Download Android Studio Beta v0.8.0 with the Android SDK for Linux HERE.
  • Unpack the downloaded Tar file, android-studio-bundle-.tgz, into an appropriate location for your applications.
  • To launch Android Studio, navigate to the android-studio/bin/ directory in a terminal and execute studio.sh.
