Different work flow between Clover Dev Kits?

Listed under "Important Notes" in Clover Station Developer Kit: https://cloverdevkit.com/collections/...

It specifies "Clover Station DevKits support network debugging and side loading apps" - I don't see this note in any of the other dev kits. Does that mean that all the other dev kits do not support direct loading of the debug apk outputted from android studio during development?

If so what is the intended development workflow? Does the apk need to be uploaded to clover before it can be downloaded and tested on devices other than the Clover Station development kit?

All Clover devices support sideloading apps and uploading/downloading apps through our sandbox App Market. If your app requires read/write permissions (for Orders, Inventory, etc.), you will need to upload the APK to your Clover developer account initially and download to your test merchant account to have your app granted those permissions. On subsequent APK versions, you can sideload the app and the permissions should persist.
