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?

    Make a script using AutoHotkey (ask for help in [email protected]) that goes through the list in a Windows desktop browser and remotely installs the apps to the device one by one. That’s how I’d do it, anyway.

    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.
