change font for editText hint

Question

Is it possible to change the font for the hint displayed in the EditText field? I want to set the font in the xml itself.

Answer 1

Take the approach of using a text input layout and placing a text input edit text inside

On the Fragment/Activity , Set the font you want for the hint onto the TextInputLayout(text_input_layout_Til) Then set the font on the edit text(editText) as well / If you do this , The text the user will input and the hint will have different fonts
