Answer 1

I know I am late to this party. But I have shortest solution for this problem. If you want to show "Today" or "Yesterday" based on the Date then you just need to use this

String strDate = "";
if (DateUtils.isToday(date.getTime()))
    strDate = "Today";
else if (DateUtils.isToday(date.getTime() + DateUtils.DAY_IN_MILLIS))
    strDate = "Yesterday";

here variable date is the Date object.
