      3. It's recommended to install the Canary version alongside your stable version, so choose a different installation directory if prompted.
    • Mac:

      1. Open the downloaded .dmg file.
      2. Drag and drop Android Studio into the Applications folder.
      3. You can rename this version (e.g., "Android Studio Canary") to differentiate it from the stable version.
    • Linux:

      1. Unpack the .zip file you downloaded to an appropriate location for your applications.
      2. To launch Android Studio, open a terminal, navigate to the android-studio/bin/ directory, and execute studio.sh.

    • You can choose to import settings from a previous version of Android Studio or set it up as a fresh installation.
  5. Updates:

    • Android Studio Canary gets updates more frequently than the stable version. Always be on the lookout for updates in order to get the latest features and bug fixes. You can check for updates via Help > Check for Updates (on Windows/Linux) or Android Studio > Check for Updates (on Mac).

Remember, the Canary version is experimental and might have bugs. It's advisable to use it in parallel with the stable version and not for production app development.
