"Installing file to device" takes the most of time.
Will using Genymotion instead of Android emulator reduce the time of "Installing file to device" ?

Most probably yes. A real device will also be faster.

Note that you should use debug (rapid). In most cases it doesn't need to reinstall the APK and the compilation is very quick.

Erel,

Thank you. I don't use debug mode just release one. I will try to use debug (rapid) instead of release.
