Android SpannableStringBuilder add Editetxtview in Textview

I have found the following code where i can add an image within a Textview with the help of SpannableStringBuilder. I would also like to add a EditText field within the textview, just like how image is added below. I'm struggling with this from a lot of time. Thanks in advance 

TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView);    
SpannableStringBuilder builder = new SpannableStringBuilder();
        builder.append("My string. I ")
                .append(" ", new ImageSpan(getActivity(), R.drawable.ic_action_heart), 0)
                .append(" Cree by Dexode");

textView.setText(builder);

As you can see in the Picture attached, image was successfully spanned within the textview. Similarly I would like to an EditText field within Textview

You cannot attach another View inside a View. Remember that ImageSpan is not a ImageView but a Bitmap drawn inside TextView just like texts..

If you wish to let user input inside your view you Should use a EditText along TextWatcher or Simply Position a EditText over your TextView.
