BottomNavigationView

In Api version 25, new Design is introduced by Support Design Library

For Implment in your application you should add

compile ‘com.android.support:design:25.0.0’

in build.gradle

Next simply add the Bottom Navigation View widget to your desired layout file. We can add this view like so:

<FrameLayout
        android:id="@+id/content"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        android:layout_weight="1"/>

<android.support.design.widget.BottomNavigationView
        android:id="@+id/navigation"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="bottom"
        app:itemBackground="@color/colorPrimary"
        app:itemIconTint="@drawable/nav_item_color_state"
        app:itemTextColor="@drawable/nav_item_color_state"
        android:background="?android:attr/windowBackground"
        app:menu="@menu/navigation"/>

Attribute Which can used for setting value in XML:

app:itemBackground — background color for bottom nav app:itemIconTint — Tint Color for icon/Use Color State List(Selector) app:itemTextColor — Tint color for Text of menu/Use Color State List(Selector) app:menu — The menu resource to be used to display items in the bottom navigation menu

We can also set programatically like :

inflateMenu(int menuResource) — Inflate a menu for the bottom navigation view using a menu resource identifier. setItemBackgroundResource(int backgroundResource) — The background to be used for the menu items. setItemTextColor(ColorStateList colorStateList) — A ColorStateList used to color the text used for the menu items setItemIconTintList(ColorStateList colorStateList) — A ColorStateList used to tint the icons used for the menu items

For Menu like previouslly we use side navigation menu:

<item
        android:id="@+id/navigation_home"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_home_black_24dp"
        android:title="@string/title_home"/>

<item
        android:id="@+id/navigation_dashboard"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_dashboard_black_24dp"
        android:title="@string/title_dashboard"/>

<item
        android:id="@+id/navigation_notifications"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_notifications_black_24dp"
        android:title="@string/title_notifications"/>
