Step four: extract & configure the Android-studio tarball
After your download is complete, the next step of course is to configure the tarball and set it up for installation, to do that launch your terminal and navigate to download folder, to do that use the command:
- cd Downloads
If you type the ls command you should find the Android-studio tarball there, the next thing we’re going to do is to move the tarball to the /opt directory, you can do that with the command:
- mv android-studio-2021.2.1.16-linux.tar.gz /opt
After moving the tar file to the /opt directory you’re going to navigate to the directory with the command:Â cd /optÂ
Now to extract the file you can simply use the command:
- tar -xf android-studio-2021.2.1.16-linux.tar.gz
After the extraction has been completed successfully, then you can go ahead and delete the original tarball file with the command
- rm android-studio-2021.2.1.16-linux.tar.gz

Step five: create a shortcut command for Android-studio
After Android-studio tarball has been successfully extracted, the next thing we’re going to do is create a shortcut command for android studio so that we can easily access the studio application from any part of the terminal by using a simple command, so let’s navigate to the android studio bin from the /opt directory by using the command cd android-studio/bin
 In the bin directory we’re going to create an Android-studio shortcut by using the command:
- echo “bash /opt/android-studio/bin/studio.sh” >> /bin/android-studio
now we give storage access to the newly created shortcut by using the command :
- chmod +x /bin/android-studio
