How to prevent soft keyboard cover my views

In the layout file of one of my activities I've got 2 inputs at the top and at the bottom and a next button.

The problem is, when keyboard shows, it covers the button. How can I bring the views above keyboard?

Just put in manifest.. Use "adjustResize"

It makes main window always resized to make room for the soft keyboard on screen.

<application
......
>
<activity
           .............................
            android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden|adjustResize" />

 </application>

Check this blog post On-screen Input Methods

You can use android:windowSoftInputMode attribute to specify what should happen whether the layout is resized or whether it scrolls.

In your manifest file

<activity name=".YourActivity"
        android:windowSoftInputMode="stateVisible|adjustResize">
        ...
</activity>
