How can i dynamically change bottom navigation items text?

Question

Im trying to achieve the above design. I'm able to change the icons, but cannot change the bottom text. Im using material bottom navigation bar

I achieved the icon change by implementing separate selector drawables for each icon. Is there any way that i can do the same with the nav titles?

MainActivity.class

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
BottomNavigationView navView;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    navView = findViewById(R.id.nav_view);

    // Passing each menu ID as a set of Ids because each
    // menu should be considered as top level destinations.
    AppBarConfiguration appBarConfiguration = new AppBarConfiguration.Builder(
            R.id.navigation_home, R.id.navigation_saved, R.id.navigation_applied, R.id.navigation_profile, R.id.navigation_more)
            .build();

    NavController navController = Navigation.findNavController(this, R.id.nav_host_fragment);
    NavigationUI.setupActionBarWithNavController(this, navController, appBarConfiguration);
    NavigationUI.setupWithNavController(navView, navController);



}

Answer 1

I change the title and Icon programmatically like that:

fun changeMenuItemTextAndIcon(){
    val item: MenuItem = bottom_navigation.menu.findItem(R.id.action_scan)
    item.title = getString(R.string.label_scan_item)
    item.icon = ContextCompat.getDrawable(activity, R.drawable.ic_barcode)
}
