I have tries below command and this works :

val startCommand = "adb shell am start -S -W $appPackage/$launchActivity -c android.intent.category.LAUNCHER -a android.intent.action.MAIN"

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("$startCommand")

But when I tried to write log into file its not:

val writeLog = "adb logcat -d | grep --line-buffered ABC >> logcat.txt"

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("$writeLog")

You cannot do redirects inside exec() . You would need a shell to understand the >>

[mbonnin]

And the pipes too

You can take a look at https://github.com/jakubriegel/kotlin-shell

Or elsee you'll have to use https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/lang/Process.html#getInputStream-- and do the redirects/pipes yourself
