How to empty edittext without setText("");

A function for that would be:

fun setTextViewEmpty(textView: TextView){
(textView as EditText ).text.clear()   }

inspired by this

you can use following way

Kotlin:

myEditText.text.clear()

Java:

EditText myEditText = ((EditText) findViewById(R.id.yoursXmlId));
myEditText.getText().clear()

Another option is: EditText.getText().clear(); But you'll have to cast anyway:

((EditText) findViewById(R.id.yoursXmlId)).getText().clear();
