Likewise, people ask, how do you make Edittext only accept numbers?
Choosing the input type configures the keyboard type that is shown, acceptable characters, and appearance of the edit text. For example, if you want to accept a secret number, like a unique pin or serial number, you can set inputType to "numericPassword".
Subsequently, question is, how do I change the numeric settings on my keyboard? If the text Num Lock is shown in a different color, find the matching-color key, such as Alt or Fn. Then press that key in combination with Num Lock. You're successful when the Num Lock light comes on. At that point, the keyboard has switched into numeric keypad mode.
