I have an app in which i have done some work like updated database with some records. Now i want to generate its .apk file so if i send that .apk to another user he or she can continue work from where i left. Like i wrote a half article, now i want some one else to complete it so i send that .apk to him and he can install it and continue our work.
All i could find was to get apks for all applications but i want the generated apk to have all the work i done in my app so the other user can continue easily
ref: How to get the .apk file of an application programmatically
You can't send the apk to the other developer, you have to send the source code. Your best bet is to use an online repository (github for example) and share the code that way.

(How) Is it possible to extract the sql-file from an android application on my pc? We developed an app and used it on some devices but unfortunately some of them didn't save the information on our web interface. So we need the database from three phones and typing by hand is out of the question.
Yes, depending on where it is saved you can access the .db file via the device file explorer on the right in Android Studio.
I assume it is in data/data/yourPackageName/databases
There should be .db files, but again, they could be somewhere else depending on the way you created it.

I'm a beginner in android atudio, I recently make my first app, I put in many raw resources file(txt,mp3) that is why it's size is big (~200Mo).
I want to allow user to download what he need in order to benefit my service like listen to mp3 read text.
You should carefully consider why you need this much data in your app, remove all unnecessary parts and put everything you really need into the .apk as resource.
If I find some app is downloading 200MB to my phone, I'll uninstall that immediately.

I'm developing an app for someone who lives pretty far away from me. I'm using android studio. My boss wants to try the app on their phone however My boss doesn't have android studio and doesn't know how to use git. How can I get the app on their phone? Is there a way to access the app files so that they can be place on the phone easily?
Build your App in Android Studio. To be 100% sure, run your app on your test device
Locate your APK. It should be at MyApp/myapp/build/outputs/apk/myapp-debug.apk
Send the APK using email, or better, upload the APK to Dropbox, your web server and email the link
Export your .apk file and send it to him. All he needs to do is find the file and hit it. Then he can install it.

I have an Android application,already live on playstore, but due to certain changes in the requirement, I have to add one more activity to the app without updating the app again on playstore.
Also for future projects, how can I make the application update some part of its code, or patch a broken code without updating the app on the store.
In advance thank you!!
You cannot do that, unless your app is explicitly designed and written to support i.e. dynamic UI based on your external resoiurces/files etc. This is not the case so answer is "no".
or patch a broken code without updating the app on the store
You can download APK from external source and init its installation.

I want to create a simple app for android. I want it to install an .xml file to another apps existing directory when the user runs the app and clicks the install button. It is a patch for an existing app. I have created the .xml file but I want to make it easy for users to patch their app. Seeing as my Android knowledge is limited, I was wondering if I could get some help with this. I'm sure it's simple. Any help is appreciated, thank you.
Unfortunately this is not possible, at least without rooting the device and running your app as root.
This is so by necessity - think what would happen if any application could modify other apps files.
