OK I didn't understand your explanation of what RecyclerView does but after looking it up now I understand. When a view (the container for one of the rows) goes off screen, instead of just being off screen and taking up resources for no reason, or just being deleted and replaced with a new one, Android keeps it but replaces all the content (the actual image and words you see) with new content. This way the system doesn't need to store all the hundreds of views (which would eat up all the memory), and it doesn't have to constantly delete view objects only to replace them with new ones (which would use up CPU power). Instead it only creates the minimum number of view objects (however many fit on the screen) and just replaces the content in them with whatever needs to be displayed.
Okay so I see a lot of people have problem with this tutorial. Problem 17:36 So in your build.gradle file add this code inside of android {} and make sure you press sync. BUILD.GRADLE buildFeatures { viewBinding true } And this is how your code should look like. CODE: class ToDoAdapter(var todos: List): RecyclerView.Adapter() { inner class ToDoViewHolder(val binding: ItemTodoBinding) : RecyclerView.ViewHolder(binding.root) override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): ToDoViewHolder { val layoutInflater = LayoutInflater.from(parent.context) val binding = ItemTodoBinding.inflate(layoutInflater, parent, false) return ToDoViewHolder(binding) } override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: ToDoViewHolder, position: Int) { holder.binding.apply { // tvTitle this now works } } override fun getItemCount(): Int { return todos.size } } This is not bad tutorial but for beginners it's hard. Also Philipp should update with pined comment or something about this problem. And how to solve it. Enjoy
the best explanation ever I'm learning android programming in Kotlin and for 1 week I've been trying to understand RV setting. Thanks you lot, Phillip!
A really easy improvement for anyone reading is to add etTodo.text.clear() to remove the text for the item that was just added. btnAddTodo.setOnClickListener { val title = etTodo.text.toString() val todo = Todo(title, false) todoList.add(todo) //update recycler view adapter.notifyItemInserted(todoList.size - 1) // Clear text etTodo.text.clear() } Nice tutorial, thanks!
at 17:14 in onBindViewHolder function I write holder.itemView and then . (dot) android studio doesnt find or recognize tvTitle or cbDone, I cant access those. Could anyone (or you Philipp Lackner) tell me what can be the problem? What am I missing? Please help!!!

Anybody wondering why your viewbinding isn't working? Here's how to fix it -->>> 1. Set it in gradle -> (NOTE: this belongs under -> android { } , section) buildFeatures { viewBinding true } 2. Use LayoutNameBinding as the class to inflate from in onCreateViewHolder (as "LayoutName" suggests, you replace this with the name of your xml layout) val layoutInflater = LayoutInflater.from(parent.context) val binding = LayoutNameBinding.inflate(layoutInflater, parent, false) return MyViewHolder(binding) 3. Send the binding to the ViewHolder (update the viewholder to hold a reference to LayoutNameBinding type) inner class MyViewHolder(val binding: LayoutNameBinding) : RecyclerView.ViewHolder(binding.root) 4. Enjoy viewbinding in bind() method! (NOTE, you may need additional implement's or whatnot in gradle. You can google for those)
I think this video is very clear. I'd just add the mention that as an option to LinearLayoutManager you can have LinearLayout.Horizontal in case you want to have it scrollable horizontally.
I wonder if you will answer my question - following your guide, for some reason the itemview does not show any of the views (like title etc) (in the apply part). As if it doesnt know them. Cant find a solution to this issue or why it is happening.
Thanks a lot! Take a look at codinginflow's channel, he has two new videos about recyclerview which I think are very detailed. I'm sure you can also find some good medium articles about recyclerviews
Hi! Thanks for this tutorial! I have a question though (probably a noob question): how can you access e.g. the rvTodos and its properties directly inside the main class? Same question for e.g. the tvTitle inside the TodoAdapter class. To access these have to first declare a val and find the needed object by id (e.g. val tvTitle = findViewById(R.id.tvTitle)).
Hi, I am just starting out with the tutorials. I can see that the recycler view state/ items in the todo list are not save when I reopen the app. Is there a way to go about this?
late 1 year and xml is outdated, and i know you already knew the answer, but the answer is "no", you need to write another code to save something to your phone.

You are indeed the best teacher for this but I also noticed you didn't use the get function to get the individual items in your list item folder.Someone explain why
I'm having one problem with this tutorial. I don't know if anyone will reply in time to help me with this assignment, but I'll throw it out there in case anyone in the future has the same problem. In the adapter class, in the onBindViewHolder function, I tried using the same method to set the text in my recycler view, but I'm getting "unresolved references." For an example, I have a line of code "forecast_date.text = forecastList[position].date" where forecast_date is the ID for that particular TextView in my forecast_list_item.xml file. That is highlighted in red with the unresolved reference. I see that your program added that import kotlinx statement when started coding this part, but I don't seem to have that option. Any ideas why it's not seeing my forecast_list_item.xml file?...
Hi there! In MainActivity rvTodos is not identified. Anyone has an idea about how to fix it? I applied a suggestion posted below by someone who watched this video. This suggestion did not work for me. Also, in the the clicklistener Todo [line: Todo(title, false)] is not identified either. Thanks.
Back then we had a plugin called Kotlin synthetics which allowed us to call views directly. Nowdays, you'll need to get view references using either findViewById() or ViewBinding (preferred)
you're explanation was very detailed, but i found out this method was only possible in my case using a depreciated method of using 'kotlin-android-extensions' as plugin for gradle. i hope you can redo it in the new updated method as of 2023.
Hi, first thank you for this tutorial ! Why do we put todos.size in the getItemCount function ? The number of items showed should be different from the total number of items of the list, no? I don’t understand where in the code the adapter takes into account the site of the user screen, can you help me to understand please?

I didn't quite understand the whole thing about recycle view...can you please help me for am not so sure I can get a better place to learn than here? thanks in anticipation
Awesome tut. Only feedback is to use the GUI to add textviews/buttons/etc. instead of adding them manually via the XML editor as it is easier for viewers to follow along and see the app come together
If we search for the xml views in onBindViewHolder wont it search for the view for every item ? this is exactly why we have ViewHolder class, so that the activity don't have to search for the view for every item 😅😅correct me if i am wrong
You take the data from list in Main Activity (todolist), what if i want to take the data from some class? For example i have data class book that contain title, author, year released etc
I add the layout in onCreateViewHolder method. But I can't access the components of this layout in onBindViewHolder method . Anyone please help me .......
Hi Phillip, I hope you are well. I'm following your tutorial with my own example. I have two activities: MainAcitivity and CreateNoteActivity. I want to pass text from two EditTexts in CreateNoteActivity and display it in a RecyclerView in MainActivity. When I click in the Create Note button, the note is not display in the Main Activity. How I can fix this? Before, I try the same app but with an only one activity: MainActivity, and works fine. Now I have two activities and I don't achieve success yet. Please, any help will be gratefully.
Great video man Thanks for this Have a question The how does the view holder know the XML view item it should hold is gotten from the todoitemxml didn't see any reference to it Thanks 😊
Thanks so much, Philipp. I really love all your amazing videos. Could you please create a video about using advanced RecyclerView in Android (increase performance, best practice when using RecyclerView...). I think it will be useful for any Android Developer
Accessing the checkbox and text view using synthetics does not work anymore and to use ViewBinding we need the adapter class. I am confused here. Can you please make a video on this?
To avoid the synthetics, add the following to the inner class: init{ tvTitle = itemView.findViewById(R.id.tvTitle) cbDone = itemView.findViewById(R.id.cbDone) } Then refer to the items directly in onBindViewHolder, like this: override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: TodoViewHolder, position: Int) { holder.tvTitle.text = todos[position].title holder.cbDone.isChecked = todos[position].isChecked }
great video but I'm struggling with undeclared "tvTitle" when trying to populate> override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: TodoViewHolder, position: Int). I checked, double and treble checked, everything is named correctly. Any ideas?
@@malcolmfarrelle8591 The video doesn't show how to set it up, nor is it set up properly in the video. I honestly have NO IDEA HOW it even works for him. From what I see, it shouldn't even theoretically work. Perhaps this was an old way to do it that no longer works?
@@megumin4625 I happened to have it set in the module from a spinner tutorial I was following earlier. Turns out it was in the correct scope, so some other issue. I'm currently building a clone of the whole project from Philipp's GitHub, hopefully that will help
I'm struggling with that too. It seems like learning Android dev is 10x more difficult than it should be - everything is deprecated 6 months later, so in every course or tutorial you're basically fucked trying to solve issues you shouldn't have to while learning a new framework. As a consequence, what should be a 30min tutorial ends up taking me over 3 hours trying to figure out how to make the code work. It's absolutely frustrating.
@@PhilippLackner hello thank you for giving time in my question, I am having difficulties in data class that I want to put in recyclerview, I want to ask how can I make the data class into null? or no value at all or just say I don't want to have a default value on it, I want it to be dynamic? how can I do that using data class?
@@PhilippLackner How can I set that mutablelist to empty? then add value to the todoList mutablelistof Todo() dynamically, like what you did in the button? I don't want to have a value on it, what I want is I am the one to set the value, like adding value from a button.
This video helped me a lot! But everytime i restart the app the points on the list, that i added are gone, how can I keep them(bc thats pretty much the point of a list, where you can write things down)
For that you need to save them to a database so they are not lost when the activity gets destroyed. Check out my MVVM Playlist for that. There I show exactly that
Also there is problem on 20:21. You need add RecyclerView, Button and TextView to use it. So in your MainActivity add code like this. CODE: override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(R.layout.activity_main) var todoList = mutableListOf( ToDo("Text",false) ) // This was added val rv = findViewById(R.id.rvTodos) as RecyclerView val btnAddTodo = findViewById(R.id.btnAddTodo) as Button val etTodo = findViewById(R.id.etTodo) as TextView val adapter = ToDoAdapter(todoList) rv.adapter = adapter rv.layoutManager = LinearLayoutManager(this) btnAddTodo.setOnClickListener{ val title = etTodo.text.toString() val todo = ToDo(title,false) todoList.add(todo) adapter.notifyItemInserted(todoList.size - 1) } } Enjoy
Very nice video. Could you also make a video focusing on Emulator Devices. For example in this tutorial my app worked by i got the error Emulator: socketTcpLoopbackClientFor: error: fd 69252 above FD_SETSIZE (32768) and I don't know how i can fix it.

}
And this is how your code should look like.
CODE:
class ToDoAdapter(var todos: List): RecyclerView.Adapter() {
inner class ToDoViewHolder(val binding: ItemTodoBinding) : RecyclerView.ViewHolder(binding.root)
override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): ToDoViewHolder {
val layoutInflater = LayoutInflater.from(parent.context)
val binding = ItemTodoBinding.inflate(layoutInflater, parent, false)
return ToDoViewHolder(binding)
}
override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: ToDoViewHolder, position: Int) {
holder.binding.apply {
// tvTitle this now works
}
}
override fun getItemCount(): Int {
return todos.size
}
}
This is not bad tutorial but for beginners it's hard. Also Philipp should update with pined comment or something about this problem. And how to solve it.

thanks a lot for this video, please let me know is their any video in which this is done via internet
i.e. data is fetched from net
check my news app playlist
@@PhilippLackner 😀👍
what is """tvTitle""" ? it's not working and we didn't declare it before !!!
Loved it!
great lecture! Thank You!!
Thanks for the video. Is the code on github?
Right now cbDone.isChecked is not updated in todo item. When you create more items and scroll then changed cbDone will be set as default.
same prob here
Where is "rvTodoItems" coming from in the main activity????
thanks a lot you explain this unit very good
This video helped me a lot! But everytime i restart the app the points on the list, that i added are gone, how can I keep them(bc thats pretty much the point of a list, where you can write things down)
For that you need to save them to a database so they are not lost when the activity gets destroyed. Check out my MVVM Playlist for that. There I show exactly that
@@PhilippLackner I tried but unable to follow up! Too many things going on there.
good explanation. thanks
Thank you very much man!!!
Why is that only first data is shown
Also there is problem on 20:21. You need add RecyclerView, Button and TextView to use it. So in your MainActivity add code like this.
CODE:
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
var todoList = mutableListOf(
ToDo("Text",false)
)
// This was added
val rv = findViewById(R.id.rvTodos) as RecyclerView
val btnAddTodo = findViewById(R.id.btnAddTodo) as Button
val etTodo = findViewById(R.id.etTodo) as TextView
val adapter = ToDoAdapter(todoList)
rv.adapter = adapter
rv.layoutManager = LinearLayoutManager(this)
btnAddTodo.setOnClickListener{
val title = etTodo.text.toString()
val todo = ToDo(title,false)
todoList.add(todo)
adapter.notifyItemInserted(todoList.size - 1)
}
}
Enjoy
Thanks man.
Nice tutorial, how can i implement recyclerview with snapping on start?
HI! How delete item (position) ?
Nice one!
Thanks!
thank you, you explain really well.
Thanks!
is there a java version of this?
Add this line to clean the text in the EditText after it was added, otherwise you can not understand whether text was added or not
just add the following one line code for that: etTodo.getText().clear()
why did u set android:height = 0dp ,
Thanks so much for your help! You are kind of a heroe for me
People who write such comments like you are heroes for me 🙏
why this awesome video has less number of views.?
19:56 Did you ever ask your crush out Philipp?
Very nice video.
Could you also make a video focusing on Emulator Devices. For example in this tutorial my app worked by i got the error
Emulator: socketTcpLoopbackClientFor: error: fd 69252 above FD_SETSIZE (32768)
and I don't know how i can fix it.
Hi, Thanks for the Demo. Where we can find the source code?
Can you tell me how to delete the item in recycler view
By deleting the item from your list in the activity and then calling adapter.notifyItemDeleted(deletedIndex)
really good !!!!
Thanks bro!
Thanks a lot man
Make a video on deletion and onClick listeners for it please
