Protractor does not support native Android apps: proof link.

With protractor you can mobile sites in browser or hybrid app that starts with WebView (by adding autoWebview: 'true', autoWebviewTimeout: '10000' in your config)

You want to test native Android app you need to use other client libraries:

1) wd.js

2) webdriverio

  • Once again: you can test any web site suing your configuration, protractor will start browser. You cannot run mobile app, e.g. Facebook, it just don't support it. – dmle Oct 24 '18 at 13:34
