Wish Compile without install

Now that I am working on Android Wear projects, I have found a real NEED for being able to compile without install. I have to unplug all Android devices, compile watch app (to get the .apk without it being installed on any devices), copy the compiled .apk, set it to read only, plug devices back in, compile the phone app and then it installs to phone. Even with the relatively short period of time I have been debugging my DataLayer lib, this is becoming a burden and I see my USB ports being ruined in no time.

So, pretty please, can we have this option, so I can compile and get the .apk without having to unplug my devices?

Thanks

You want the apk as well? Then I guess my suggestion won't work

indeed moster . Yes had already suggested that to me but I need the apk. Thanks for trying

Plug a usb extension cable into your laptop.
Connect all android devices to a usb hub.

Connect/disconnect extension cable and hub to connect/disconnect all devices at once without wearing out your laptop usb ports.

The crisis has been avoided to an extent, lol.

I thought I'd try plugging the watch into computer and installing direct. I didn't think it would link / relate to the phone app properly but it appears it does.

Would still be nice to have this feature for final packaging, but for the now the need is not si urgent.
