What ways are there to automate installation of a list of apps?
“adb install” can be used to install apks without rooting the phone.
fdroidcl can automate downloading apks from F-Droid.
Is there anything similar that can install a list of Play store apps / package names?
Not really. I’m sure you could set something up using fdroidcl or eget or something to grab apk’s from Github, but nothing would be “automated.”
This eget?
With automated in this context I mean non-interactive ways to install multiple apps, as opposed to having to manually tap install on each app.
