How to remove the underline from the EditText field in Android?

Question

Whenever a word is typed in the EditText box, I always see an underline under the word being typed. But when I press a space after that word I no longer see the underline.

Answer 1

accepted answer is not given solution, and some other user given answer but no one given full anser, so that's why i write here working solution.

If you want to remove underline then just add below code.

XML

android:inputType="textNoSuggestions"

Java

EditText ed;
ed = findViewById(yourId);
ed.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_TEXT_FLAG_NO_SUGGESTIONS);

If you want to set more than one input type then,

ed.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER | InputType.TYPE_TEXT_FLAG_NO_SUGGESTIONS);

May be above information is helpful to others.

Answer 2

try:

android:inputType= InputTypes.TextVariationVisiblePassword;

Answer 3

You don't have to use any logic to remove the underlines -- just call getText().toString() when you want to use the value. It won't include special formatting or anything.

<EditText
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:background="@null"
        android:imeOptions="actionDone"
        android:inputType="textNoSuggestions"
        android:maxLines="1"
        />
