Ensure you have latest platform-tools installed on your computer system.
If you do not have the SDK "platform-tools" installed on your computer, download it from this link and keep track where the the "platform-tools" folder is located:
Enable "Developer Mode" on the DataLink by navigating to Settings->About Phone->Build Number and tap at least 7 times on "Build Number."
Enable Settings->Developer options->USB debugging
Using a USB to Micro USB cable, plug the HereLink Blue into a computer and open the computer's terminal command line
For Windows, navigate to the "platform-tools" folder. In this folder, hold down Shift and then right-click. From the menu select the “Open Command window here” option. If the option to open the command window is not available, then click on the "open PowerShell window here".
For Mac, navigate to the "platform-tools" folder. Right Click the folder and select Services->New Terminal at Folder
Using the computer's terminal, check it the device is connected via the adb command protocol:
Mac:
Windows:
Move the .apk file to the SDK "platform-tools" folder on your computer
Install the .apk using adb install <app_name>.apk in your computers terminal
Mac:
Windows:
The new app should now appear in the app launcher's list.
To remove the app use adb remove org.myorg.appname
