Android and Android TV instances are overriding each others app

[VMBindraban]

Describe the bug
When i run npx rnv run -p android (or androidtv) it targets both the android and the androidtv sim.

I am getting the following message:

The app is however only installed on android and it was removed on the androidtv.
If i also run npx rnv run -p androidtv next to the existing android build it will say the same message but it removes the app from android and install it only on the androidtv.

The androidtv targets [ info ] [run] Found device Television_1080p_API_33:emulator-5556!

Desktop:

• OS: OSX 14.1.1
• Node Version: 18
• RNV Version: 1.0.0-feat-bonanza.12

Note:
I am running 2 sims to test/develop both devices at the same time, they are using a different server.

@VMBindraban thanks for reporting this issue.
I reproduced it on 1.0.0-canary.9

• OS: macOS Ventura 13.5.2 (Intel)
• Node Version 18.14.2
• RNV Version 1.0.0-canary.9
• rnv/template-starter Version 1.0.0-canary.9

Seems to be the issue with react native itself. This specific line - https://github.com/react-native-community/cli/blob/main/packages/cli-platform-android/src/commands/runAndroid/index.ts#L184 seems to launch the app on multiple devices even with the deviceId provided. I think that could be the case due to gradle by default tries to launch on multiple. However, I did find a workaround for this, if you add --interactive option to cli command it launches only on one specific device.

To do this more easily, you could run the rnv command with --printExec, which will show the raw react native command, to which you will be able to add the --interactive option
