How can I do that? I mean showing the limit of character and how much was digited on the input text.
You can simply use TextInputLayout
widget for this task in your xml,
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:counterEnabled="true"
app:counterMaxLength="50">
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:maxLength="50" />
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>
Here counterEnabled
is to enable counter, and counterMaxLength
sets the maximum range of counter.
While maxLength
in EditText
sets the maximum number of characters, can be enters in your EditText.
