In order to be able to use the Android Studio tools to install apps onto your phone, you will need to make sure that the Developer Options and USB debugging are enabled for both of your phones.

When you first connect a phone to your computer with Android Studio running, the phone might prompt you if it is OK to allow the computer to have USB debugging access to the phone. If this happens, make sure that you check the “Always allow from this computer” option and hit the OK button to allow USB debugging.
