Answer 1

For next comers, I find the accepted answer overcomplicated for the task. Here is a nice extension code in Kotlin that uses Paint.breakText(). That said, it can probably be simplified further...

fun EditText.getMultilineText(): String {
    val maxWidth = (width - paddingLeft - paddingRight).toFloat()
    val original = text.toString().trim()
    val len = original.length
    val multiline = mutableListOf()
    var p = 0

    var count = -1
    while (count != 0) {
        count = paint.breakText(original, p, len, true, maxWidth, null)
        if (p + count < len) {
            var tmp = count
            while (tmp > 0 && original[p + tmp - 1] != ' ') {
                tmp -= 1
            }
            if (tmp > 0) {
                count = tmp
            }
        }
        val tmp = original.substring(p, p + count).trim()
        if (tmp.isNotBlank()) {
            multiline.add(tmp)
        }
        p += count
    }

    return multiline.joinToString("\r\n")
}
