Completing code block with semicolon in intellij java

I'm tired of having to take time to reformat code after every statement. Call me lazy or call me spoiled, but every IDE I've used reformatted code automatically when I entered a semicolon.

I've been using intellij because eclipse and android studio have too many internal dependencies that cause problems. But it doesn't reformat code the way the other two do. Is there a plugin or method I could use to correct this?

Also try shift-ctrl-enter. This completes the line, adding semi-colon, closing brackets etc but as a side effect also reformats the line.

I didn't tried by myself but the following could address the problem with automatic re-format:

Regarding Eclipse (I didn't use it for a long time) wasn't automatic reformat of the code triggered on file save? You said you had in eclipse this support on entering a semicolon.

Kind regards.
