how to change color of textview hyperlink?

I am using this code for hyperlink:

<TextView 
    android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
    android:layout_height="fill_parent" 
    android:id="@+id/hyperlink" 
    android:text="@string/hyperlink"
    android:autoLink="web"/>

By default it is showing blue color, but how do I change color of hyperlink in Android?

My Compose hyperlink changed color

val annotatedString = buildAnnotatedString {
    withStyle(style = SpanStyle(color = Color.Red)) { // your color
        append("Link Text")
        addStringAnnotation(
            tag = "URL",
            annotation = "https://www.example.com",
            start = 0,
            end = "Link Text".length
        )
    }
}

ClickableText(
    text = annotatedString,
    onClick = { offset ->
        annotatedString.getStringAnnotations(tag = "URL", start = offset, end = offset)
            .firstOrNull()?.let { annotation ->
              // link click action code             }
    }
)

You can also change the link color in your theme using android:textColorLink. You probably need to set both light and dark theme when you do that

Add these Lines of code to your textview in XML file and it will work perfectly fine

android:autoLink="web"
 android:textColorLink="@android:color/holo_orange_dark"
 android:linksClickable="true"

You can use on your XML file: 

android:textColorLink="Code"

the "Code" can be e.g. #ff0000 or @color/red

You can use on your JAVA code : 

tv.setLinkTextColor(color);

The color can be e.g Color.RED or Color.parseColor("#ff0000");

You need to use the android:textColorLink="#000000" where 000000 is your color's hex code. Hope it helps.

You need to use android:textColorLink="colorCode" . Hope it will work.

You can also open colors.xml and change the following color to whatever you want:

<color name="colorAccent">#FF4081</color>

If anyone needs to know the hex value for this blue it is #7bc9c2.

I used Eye Dropper to figure this out as I couldn't find it documented anywhere, it isn't on the Google Color Palatte anyway:

If you want to change it programmatically:

yourText.setLinkTextColor(Color.RED);
