Edit Text´s default text

How can I set a default text in an EditText of android. But I want only an informative text not editable, and when you click in the edit text you can write all you want without having to delete this text.

I want text that is present when the EditText is still empty, but disappears as soon as the user starts to type something.

Thank you.

Add the hint property for the edittext like this

android:hint="Email"

It sets a Hint text to display when the text is empty.
