Android button animate

Question

I have these buttons here and i want them both to have some animation onclick. To grow up a little bit and then return to normal.

Here are the buttons xml codes.

<ImageButton
        android:layout_width="165dp"
        android:layout_height="60dp"
        android:text="next"
        android:id="@+id/next"
        android:src="@drawable/next"
        android:background="@android:color/transparent"
        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
        android:layout_alignRight="@+id/linearLayout"
        android:layout_alignEnd="@+id/linearLayout" />

    <ImageButton
        android:layout_width="170dp"
        android:layout_height="60dp"
        android:text="confirm"
        android:src="@drawable/confirm"
        android:background="@android:color/transparent"
        android:id="@+id/confirm"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
         />

These buttons are on one activity_main.xml file.

Can someone help me showing me some stuff of what should i do to make it happen?

Thanks a lot for your time.

Use Animator can achieve the goal easily:

findViewById(R.id.next).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Animator scale = ObjectAnimator.ofPropertyValuesHolder(v,
                    PropertyValuesHolder.ofFloat(View.SCALE_X, 1, 1.5f, 1),
                    PropertyValuesHolder.ofFloat(View.SCALE_Y, 1, 1.5f, 1)
                    );
            scale.setDuration(1000);
            scale.start();
        }
    });
