Top Android NumberPicker Libraries

Top Android NumberPicker Libraries.

NumberPicker is a commonly used UI component in Android apps for selecting numeric values. While the default NumberPicker provided by Android has limited customization options, there are several third-party libraries available that offer enhanced features and customization options for NumberPicker. In this tutorial, we will explore some of the top NumberPicker libraries and learn how to install and use them in your Android projects.

1. NumberPickerEx​

NumberPickerEx is a library that extends the functionality of the default Android NumberPicker. It provides additional features like setting custom fonts, text color, and customizing the divider color.

Installation​

Add the following dependency to your app-level build.gradle file:

To use NumberPickerEx in your layout file, add the following code:

<com.github.philjay.numberpicker.NumberPickerEx
    android:id="@+id/numberPicker"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

In your activity or fragment, you can initialize and use the NumberPickerEx as follows:

val numberPicker = findViewById<NumberPickerEx>(R.id.numberPicker)
numberPicker.setMinValue(0)
numberPicker.setMaxValue(10)
numberPicker.setValue(5)

For further customization, you can use methods like setTypeface() to set a custom font or setTextColor() to change the text color.
