How do I remove the title bar in android studio?

Question

In my app there is this title bar at the top where the overflow menu would be, but I don't need settings and only have one screen. When I change the theme like described in many other questions I get the old 2.2 theme. I want to have the modern theme just without the bar at the top.

Answer 1

this.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);

in onCreate() works!

Answer 2

Go to Project -> app -> main -> res -> values -> styles.xml

Change this line if you want to delete it for every view

 `<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">`

to

 `<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">`

if you want to make it just for one view you can change it in youre manifest data. Go to Android -> manifests -> AndroidManifest.xml. do following:

1. Search the View you want to get this type of change <activity android:name"...">
2. Add android:theme=""@style/Theme.AppCompat.NoActionBar"

In styles.xml file, change DarkActionBar to NoActionBar

    <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
    <item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimary</item>
    <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
    <item name="colorAccent">@color/colorAccent</item>

This was working for me on values/styles.xml add items:

       `<item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
        <item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>`

Answer 6

In the manifest file change to this:

android:theme="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar" >
