Answer 1

This has worked for me

final Toast toast = Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "The following message will disappear in half second", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);     toast.show();      Handler handler = new Handler();         handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {            @Override            public void run() {                toast.cancel();             }     }, 500);
