Question

How can I show the digits in Arabic format? So, if I have integers: 1,2,3 they become '١', '٢', '٣'

Answer 1

If you want to see your number in persian or arabic format, you must use persian or arabic fonts. With android studio's default font you see them in English format . So do like this: 1. Go to this address File \new \ folder \ assets folder You can create a folder that is named as fonts 2. For your textview or edittext that you want to change it's font should do as this

Typeface face=Typeface.createformatassest (getassest (),"fonts/BZAR.TTF"); Textview.settypeface (face);

Fonts is my folder in assets folder.
