Loading thousand of data in a listview without loading all the data at the same time

Question

Actually, I need a Android ListView which can load thousands of data, but the problem is that if i will load the data simply in ListView it will short the memory. So I need a dynamic listview which loads the data only which are visible to the user. Is it Possible?

Answer 1

Yes, it is possible by using Recyclerview. Make a list view in this only the displayed data is used or it makes intent only for the displayed part

Answer 2

you can try ListView dynamically Load more . check http://www.mysamplecode.com/2012/07/android-listview-load-more-data.html

Answer 3

ListView has already had build-in recycle view mechanism. Just don't ignore ViewHolder pattern. Check example.

You can try RecyclerView if you really need animation.
