ADB Kit connects an Android phone or tablet to Chrome or Edge over WebUSB, or over Wi-Fi and TCP/IP through a small agent on your own computer, and gives you the everyday ADB tools in one workspace, with no platform-tools to install and no terminal.
Mirror the live screen and control it with the mouse, capture screenshots with a session history, record to WebM, install APKs with a confirmation step and stream logcat with filtering and search.
It is local-first: your device data is not sent to a server. It is free today; a paid plan for automation is planned for later.
ADB Kit is also available as a mobile app on Google Play and the App Store, with live screen, logcat, APK install, file transfer and Wireless ADB over Wi-Fi.
