TextField maxLength - Android Jetpack Compose

Question

Is there any out of the box solution for limiting the character size in TextField's ? I don't see any maxLength parameter like we had in XML.

Answer 1

With 1.x.y there isn't a built-in parameter. You can use something like:

var text by remember { mutableStateOf(TextFieldValue("")) }
val maxChar = 5

TextField(
    singleLine = true,
    value = text,
    onValueChange = {
        if (it.length <= maxChar) text = it         
    }
)
