How to Set selected item in BottomNavigationView

Question

I am trying to set default item on activity created but it isn\'t working? This is my code:

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.o         


        

Answer 1

Instead of selected you need to setChecked(true) that item. Try this code

mBottomNavigationView=(BottomNavigationView)findViewById(R.id.bottom_nav);
mBottomNavigationView.getMenu().findItem(R.id.item_id).setChecked(true);

Checked item is highlighted in BottomNavigationView.
