How do I get the currently displayed fragment?

Question

I am playing with fragments in Android.

I know I can change a fragment by using the following code:

FragmentManager fragMgr = getSupportFragmentManag

I know it's an old post, but was having trouble with it previously too. Found a solution which was to do this in the onBackStackChanged() listening function

  @Override
    public void onBackPressed() {
        super.onBackPressed();

         Fragment f = getActivity().getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_container);
      if(f instanceof CustomFragmentClass) 
        // do something with f
        ((CustomFragmentClass) f).doSomething();

    }

This worked for me as I didn't want to iterate through every fragment I have to find one that is visible. Hope it helps someone else too.
