Ontouch event of OnTouchListener gets called twice in android

Or just use onClickListener:

        myButton.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                //do what you gotta do
            }
        });

touchListener will be called for every MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN, MotionEvent.ACTION_UP, and MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE . so if you want to execute code only once , ie MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN then inside

onTouch()
 if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
//your code 
}
