Android Home should be the root folder of SDK.

export ANDROID_HOME="$HOME/android-sdk-linux"

EDIT: Open terminal and type these commands. (yes, on a ternimal , not in bashrc file)

export ANDROID_HOME=~/android-sdk-macosx
PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools

and then in the same terminal just type android. If configured you would be able to use build commands from this terminal. (it's a temporary solution)

For OSX   into    bash profile add   export ANDROID HOME   path to android-sdk-macosx  export PATH   ANDROID HOME platform-tools  ANDROID HOME tools  PATH    and then execute it in terminal to take effect immediately  into  etc sudoers add   you can use console  sudo visudo   Defaults        env keep     ANDROID HOME    since the building process has to start with sudo and Node s process env get the respective variables

The procedure is already well explained in the above answers  But if add the ANDROID HOME and PATH to the  bashrc or  zshrc present in  home username  and try to run the ionic command with sudo  you may get this error again   The reason is  it may look for the ANDROID HOME and PATH in the  zshrc file of root user instead of currently logged in user  So you shouldn t do that unless you add that in root user s  bashrc or  zshrc files

Setup for Linux Ubuntu Mint   download Android Studio or SDK only install set PATH   3 1  Open terminal and edit    bashrc  sudo su vim    bashrc   3 2  Export ANDROID HOME and add folders with binaries to your PATH  Common default install folders     root Android Sdk   Android Sdk   Example  bashrc  export ANDROID HOME  root Android Sdk PATH  PATH  ANDROID HOME tools PATH  PATH  ANDROID HOME platform-tools   3 3  Refresh your PATH  source    bashrc   4  Install correct SDK     When ionic build android still fails it could be because of wrong   sdk version  To install correct versions and images run android from   command line  Since it is now in your PATH you should be able to run   it from anywhere

You only have to edit your profile file like this   sudo su vim    profile   and put this at the end of the file   export ANDROID HOME  home  user name  Android Sdk export PATH  PATH  tools export PATH  PATH  platform-tools   Save and close the file and do   cd   source  profile   now if you do   echo  ANDROID HOME   it should show you something like this    home  user name  Android Sdk
