Question

I have an EditText in my activity class. What I want is, whenever my activity starts it automatically opens the input keyboard along with EditText. So how that can be done? Please anyone suggest it to me, if possible with example

Answer 1

If you want to always show soft keyboard whenever your activity is started, the simplest way is to add this piece of code in your Android Manifest file:

<activity android:name=".YourActivity"
          android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysVisible" />

This will just work without you doing anything else with your code.
