How to create a helpful tooltip in Android [closed]

Answer 1

There are several libraries available that will assist you in implementing tooltips in Android.

I recommend the Android Tooltip library which you can find on Github

Example usage:

Tooltip.make(this,
    new Builder(101)
    .anchor(aView, Gravity.BOTTOM)
    .closePolicy(new ClosePolicy()
        .insidePolicy(true, false)
        .outsidePolicy(true, false), 3000)
    .activateDelay(800)
    .showDelay(300)
    .text(R.string.hello_world)
    .maxWidth(500)
    .withArrow(true)
    .withOverlay(true)
    floatingAnimation(AnimationBuilder.DEFAULT)
    .build()
).show();
