Java – How to set text on tab bar in lowercase letters?

I wrote the video, but in the tabs it appears in capital letters. I want it to be like “video”

TabLayout tabLayout = (TabLayout) findViewById(R.id.tab_layout);
tabLayout.addTab(tabLayout.newTab().setText("Videos"));
tabLayout.addTab(tabLayout.newTab().setText("Notes"));

Well, if I’m not misunderstood you have to create a styles.xml as follows:

<style name="CustomTabs" parent="TextAppearance.Design.Tab">
    <item name="android:textSize">YOUR_TEXT_SIZE</item>
    <item name="android:textAllCaps">false</item>
</style>

Then add : in the layout where the TabLayout is placed

app:tabTextAppearance="@style/CustomTabs"

If you don’t want to display headings without capital letters, you also have to add this on your style:

<item name="android:textAllCaps">false</item>

Solution

The best way to do this is to add it to your TabLayout xml

app:tabTextAppearance="@android:style/TextAppearance.Widget.TabWidget"
