Settooltiptext() And Android:tooltiptext Are Not Working In Nougat

I have an ImageButton, when I did some test for my app, I found that I could not show the tooltipText in my Xiaomi Note 4 with Android N device. But it shows up perfectly fine in m

Solution 1:

setTooltipText (CharSequence tooltipText) is added in added in API level 26. To use it in devices with API level prior 26, you can use TooltipCompat#setTooltipText(View view, CharSequence tooltipText) from v7 support library.

To use it, add this in gradle

    implementation "com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.1.1"

Example:

`TooltipCompat.setTooltipText(view, "Tooltip text");`
