I'm developing an Android application. I have my activity here with some widgets including a Spinner. I want that Spinner object to be searchable using the quick search button. The idea is that the user tapped the Spinner object and he sees the list (the adapter). If he taps the quick search button he should be provided with a text field to enter a letter and then the spinner list jumps to the fist word it finds with the letter supplied. Just as it works with html and select tags.

Here is an workaround: Spinner spinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R. id. spinner); ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<>(context, R.

You can add a dropdown menu to your Android application in a few simple steps. For starters, you need to edit the XML files. Integrate the dropdown menu into them using Android Studio's drag-and-drop feature. Next, you have to create a string array to add all the relevant items to your dropdown menu.
In Android, Spinners provides you a quick way to select one value from a set of values. Android spinners are nothing but the drop-downlist seen in other programming languages. In a default state, a spinner shows its currently selected value. It provides a easy way to select a value from a list of values.
Looks like you are talking about similar functionality given in AutoCompleteTextView
