  • If you want to build NOT signed `apk` (so just `.apk` you can use on your own without publishing it to store) try Build -> Build Bundle(s) / APK(s) -> Build APK(s) and after a while the alert will pop. Click "Locate" and you will be taken to the folder containing `.apk`. – Karzel Jan 10 '19 at 06:24

In menu go to Build-> Build Bundles/APK ->Build APK .It will build your apk file.Once successfully finished, dialog will appear at bottom and just click locate it will move to the debug folder and you can get the apk file.It will install in all mobiles.

If you dont see apk file in that folder just follow the instructions in this link.

After Android Studio 3.1.1 update, the 'locate' link does not open generated APK folder

refer this too:

If you already have successfully build your project then apk file will be stored in your project/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/ folder.
