Solution

  • If you haven't already, you'll need to download the Command Line Tools for Android apps.

    If you unzip the command line tools to a known location, the blackberry-deploy command is located in;

    <unzip location>\blackberry.tools.SDK\bin (Windows)

    or

    <unzip location>/blackberry.tools.SDK/bin (Mac)

    (the command itself is included in multiple SDKs, but you seem to currently be working with Android)
