I would like to add a form of input in my app where a list of options appear and multiple choices can be selected. I would use a spinner, but that only allows one option to be selected. I would then need for the options selected to be sensed for me to perform further operations with this. I think I would need something involving a checkedlistview but I am not sure. What would be the best way to go about doing this? I hope my situation is understood.
Use checkedlistview it Help you

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;
@SuppressLint("ShowToast")
public class ListMain extends Activity {
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
ListView mylist = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.companionsearch_listView1);
String[] list={"one","two","three"};
ArrayAdapter adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(ListMain.this,android.R.layout.simple_list_item_multiple_choice,list);
mylist.setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_MULTIPLE);
mylist.setAdapter(adapter);
}
}
