Android EditText Hint Size

Question

How to reduce EditText Hint size?

Answer 1

You can do it by setting a size in the string recource.

For example:

<string name="edittext_hint"><font size="15">Hint here!</font></string>

then in your XML just write

android:hint="@string/edittext_hint"

This will resault in a smaller text for the hint but the original size for the input text.
