How do I set the same text size in an Android app?

I am wondering how to make the MainScreen text the same for all devices (I am using android studio) I have 65dp text, but as soon as I run it on an emulator that has more screen, my text is much smaller.

Never use "dp" to specify texts. Always use "sp" for text and "dp" for everything else.



android:textSize="25sp"

android:layout_width="50dp"

You can use the current screen resolution and the text size will be proportional for each individual device. Thus, you can use something like this:

//get your textView
TextView text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.titleField);
text.setText("Your title here");
text.setTextSize(65 * getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density);


you can do this for every TextView on your MainScreen. Hope this helps you :)

PS You can find more suggestions for your case here: Text size with different resolutions

WarrenFaith The compiler accepts both "dip" and "dp", although "dp" is more appropriate for "sp".
