Implementation of Google design guidelines for Sliders

Yesterday I was looking for sliders in Android and found this website with the Google search: https://material.io/guidelines/components/sliders.html#sliders-discrete-slider

I know that I can use a SeekBar in Android to implement sliders. However, Google seems to have very nice examples of discrete sliders but I cannot find any code examples.

I already implemented a normal SeekBar that is looking like this:

How can I make it look like this?

(Difference: When I move my slider, there is no big drop that shows the current value)

I think I might just have missed the code documentation for these design guidelines. Does anyone know where to find it? Or is the design difference because I got Android 5.0.2 on my phone?

Now you can use the official Slider in Material Components Library.

Just use something like:

<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:clipChildren="false"
    android:clipToPadding="false">

    <com.google.android.material.slider.Slider
        android:id="@+id/slider"
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        app:labelBehavior="withinBounds"
        android:value="60"
        android:valueFrom="0"
        android:valueTo="100"
        ..../>

</LinearLayout>

NOTE: it requires the version 1.2.0 (currently 1.2.0-beta01) of the library.

If you want to customize the tooltip shape with a circle marker instead of the default label you can use the labelStyle attribute:

<com.google.android.material.slider.Slider
    app:labelStyle="@style/tooltip"

with:

<style name="tooltip" parent="Widget.MaterialComponents.Tooltip">
    <item name="shapeAppearanceOverlay">@style/tooltipShOverylay</item>
    <item name="backgroundTint">@color/....</item>
</style>

<style name="tooltipShOverylay">
    <item name="cornerSize">50%</item>
</style>
