How to get the keyboard for email addresses in my app?

Question

I have an EditText in my app and it's set to

android:inputType="textEmailAddress"

but it comes up as the default keyboard instead of this one with the "@" and ".com" buttons:

Is there a specific line of code to get it to show up???

Answer 1

'android:inputType' is merely a hint for your IME. Check this post.

Hope this would answer your question.
