Hope this can help you: I created a new shell file install_apk:

#!/bin/bash

# Usage
#   run ./install_apk          # to install debug apk
#   run ./install_apk release  # to install release apk

if [ $1 == "release" ]; then
    adb install -r ./app/build/outputs/apk/app-release.apk
    echo "install release apk"
else
    echo "install debug apk"
    adb install -r ./app/build/outputs/apk/app-debug.apk
fi
