This will kill existing broken server running if any, then re-start with the default port assigned.

This will help you to install apk in device if you are struggling to install apk.

I use this often while installing apk by running “ionic cordova run android” as this sometimes freezes and do not installs apk properly.

Hope this will help you. 🙂
