Developing for mobile devices? Here's how you can use the features (like multi-touch, GPS, Camera etc.) from the comfort of the Unity Editor.

Use Unity Remote! This guide shows you how to set up the SDKs for Android development and troubleshooting and Unity Remote as well as Unity itself to help you test your game on your target device.

I just wanna give you such warm hug, I've checked like hundreds of tutorials, but none of them point out that you need to change JDK settings in case standard doesn't work. Man thank you so much, I don't know who you are but this 4 year old video solved my problem.

Thank you so much for this tutorial man, helped a lot. For me the trick was to install the official usb drivers on my phone, and i got remote 5 working fine on unity 2017.1.

wow it looks like your tips for the sequence of plug, start remote, start unity did the trick for me.

[keithloiselle]

Really great! Better than many I have watched. However, the script just added issues to my solution finding. Thank you.

For those who found this video in 2019, I was not able to get the above working as the android.bat in the "Command line tools only" download, which had been replaced with the sdkmanager.bat, neither of which worked as it wasn't able to locate java. The combination of JDK 11.0.2 (latest as of this date), and straight up downloading Android Studio, which is then automatically selected by Unity 2018, worked. The "adb devices" method still works to check if your phone is actually connected, but it's hidden inside of AppData\Local\Android\Sdk.

Thank you for this, I was stuck till your tutorial! Keep up the great work.

[Rayo]

Many thanks bro! After all day I got it to work.

[bryandelacruz]

[corentinchabanol]

So, the android studio was updated, having some trouble. I can't open the android batch file, Windows Command Processor pops up for a split second and then closes and nothing happens.

UPDATE: Installed the whole Android Studio and it already had the platform tools there.
All good.
