You will need to use dimens file for supporting multiple screens. You can view official documentation for supporting multiple dimens here https://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html

Edit :

Create new values folder with name as values-hdpi, values-xhdpi, values-xxhdpi, values-xxxhdpi.

Then add the button size in dimens file as below

values-hdpi

<dimen name="btn_click_me_width">18dp</dimen>
<dimen name="btn_click_me_height">18dp</dimen>

values-xhdpi

<dimen name="btn_click_me_width">24dp</dimen>
<dimen name="btn_click_me_height">24dp</dimen>

and similarly for other folders

You can calculate the size for different version here http://jennift.com/dpical.html

and in your layout file change button width as below

    android:layout_width="@dimen/btn_click_me_width"
