and supports a wide range of features and use-cases.
To download and install Qt for Android, follow the instructions on the
\l{Getting Started with Qt for Android} page. To build Qt from source,
see \l{Qt for Android - Building from Source}{Building from Source}.

\note Qt for Android support is inclusive of \b{but not limited to} these devices.
\note The above table is accurate at the time of this Qt patch release only.
It may change during the patch release cycle and should only be used as a
reference for what the Qt Company can rapidly reproduce bugs on.
\section1 Where to Go from Here
We invite you to explore the rest of Qt. We prepared overviews which help
you decide which APIs to use and our examples demonstrate how to use our
APIs.
\list
\li \l{Qt Overviews} - list of topics about application development
\li \l{Qt Examples and Tutorials}{Examples and Tutorials} - code samples and tutorials
\li \l{Qt Reference Pages} - a listing of C++ and QML APIs
\li \l{Qt Creator: Creating a Mobile Application}
\li \l{Qt Creator: Specifying Android Device Settings}
\endlist

\title Getting Started with Qt for Android
\brief Provides instructions to install and configure your development environment.
\ingroup androidplatform
\previouspage android.html
\nextpage android-building.html
The video below is a beginner's guide to using the Qt for Android toolchain,
including the Qt Creator IDE, to get you started developing Android apps.
\youtube 5OiIqFTjUZI
The rest of this page has more detailed getting started information.
To download and install Qt for Android, follow the instructions on the
\l{Getting Started with Qt} page.
\section1 Android Development Prerequisites
In order to develop with \l{Qt for Android}, you will also need the following
prerequisites:
\list
\li Java Development Kit (JDK) for Java development
\li \l{Android: Android command line tools}{Android SDK Command Line Tools}
for managing dependencies required for developing with Qt for Android,
including:
\list
\li \l{Android: Android SDK Platforms}{Android SDK Platform}
\li \l{Android: Android SDK Platform Tools}{Android SDK Platform Tools}
\li \l{Android: Android SDK Build Tools}{Android SDK Build Tools}
\li \l{Android: The Android NDK}{Android NDK}
\endlist
\endlist
The easiest way to manage these dependencies is by using Qt Creator's built in
Android development setup. For more information, see
\l{Qt Creator: Specifying Android Device Settings}.
\section2 Manually Installing the Prerequisites
If you prefer to manually install the prerequisites please follow
these next steps.
\section3 Java Development Kit (JDK)
Qt for Android development requires JDK 11 or above, provided by any of the
following supported distributions:
\list
\li \l{AdoptOpenJDK}
\li \l{OpenJDK}
\li \l{Java SE Development Kit}
\endlist
Please install your preferred JDK, and then make sure the \c JAVA_HOME
environment variable is pointing to the location of the installed JDK.
For example for Linux:
\badcode
sudo apt-get install openjdk-11-jdk
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64
\endcode
Or for \macOS:
\badcode
brew install openjdk@11
sudo ln -sfn "$(brew --prefix openjdk@11)/libexec/openjdk.jdk" "/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/openjdk-11.jdk"
export JAVA_HOME="$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 11)"
\endcode
\section3 Android SDK Command Line Tools
Install the latest version of the
\l{Android: Android command line tools}{Android SDK Command Line Tools}
for your operating system, and verify that the installation succeeded by running
the \l{Android: sdkmanager}{sdkmanager} binary:
\badcode
sdkmanager --version
\endcode
Then make sure the \c ANDROID_SDK_ROOT environment variable is pointing to the
location of the installed command line tools.
For example for \macOS:
\badcode
brew install android-commandlinetool
export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT="$(brew --prefix)/share/android-commandlinetools"
\endcode
\section3 Android SDK
The required version of the Platform, Platform Tools, and Build Tools for \QtVer is 31.
To install all of these run the following command:
\badcode
sdkmanager "platforms;android-31" "platform-tools" "build-tools;31.0.0"
\endcode
\section3 Android NDK
The required version of the Android NDK for \QtVer is 25.1.8937393.
To install the NDK run the following command:
\badcode
sdkmanager "ndk;25.1.8937393"
\endcode
Then make sure the \c ANDROID_NDK_ROOT environment variable is pointing to the
location of the installed NDK.
For example for \macOS:
\badcode
export ANDROID_NDK_ROOT="$(brew --prefix)/share/android-commandlinetools/ndk/23.1.7779620/"
\endcode
\section3 Emulator
If you wish to use the \l{Android: Android Emulator}{Android Emulator},
you can install it by running:
\badcode
sdkmanager "emulator" "patcher;v4"
\endcode
\section3 Platform Specific Configurations
\section4 Windows
The default USB driver on Windows does not allow debugging using
Android Debug Bridge (ADB) tool. You must install the additional USB driver
provided by the \e extras Android SDK package. To install it, run the following:
\badcode
sdkmanager.bat "extras;google;usb_driver"
\endcode
After the package installation is complete, install the driver from
\c{<ANDROID_SDK_ROOT>/extras/google/usb_driver}. Try running a few basic
\l{Android: adb}{adb} commands now and check whether your Android device
responds to them.
\section4 Linux
The following dependencies are needed for using tools such as \c adb or \c gdb which
can be used by Qt Creator:
\badcode
sudo apt-get install libstdc++6 libncurses5
\endcode
\target emulator dependencies
To run the Android emulator, the following dependencies are also necessary:
\badcode
sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2debian
\endcode
\section3 Testing Your Setup
Now you can test your development setup by running the examples shipped with the
Qt installation. For more information, see \l {Qt for Android Examples}.
To develop a simple application from scratch, see
\l {Qt Creator: Creating a Mobile Application}.
