   import android.widget.Toast;
   
   import java.util.ArrayList;
   import java.util.List;
   
   public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
   
       //Create objects
       List<String> data = new ArrayList<>();
       MultiAutoCompleteTextView textView;
   
       @Override
       protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
           super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
           setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
   
           //Create list to show suggestions
           for (int i = 1; i <= 500; i++) {
               data.add("" + i);
           }
   
           //Create adapter to add suggestions to autocomplete textview
           ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
                   android.R.layout.simple_dropdown_item_1line, data);
   
           //Initialize textview
           textView = (MultiAutoCompleteTextView) findViewById(R.id.autoCompleteTextView);
   
           //Add adapter
           textView.setAdapter(adapter);
   
           //set tockenizer to select multiple items
           textView.setTokenizer(new MultiAutoCompleteTextView.CommaTokenizer());
   
       }
   
       //show selected data on toast
       public void showData(View view) {
           Toast.makeText(this, textView.getText(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
       }
   
   }

       android:layout_height="match_parent"
       tools:context="com.pankaj.autocompletetextviewdemo.MainActivity">
   
       <LinearLayout
           android:layout_width="match_parent"
           android:layout_height="match_parent"
           android:layout_margin="10dp"
           android:orientation="vertical">
   
           <MultiAutoCompleteTextView
               android:id="@+id/autoCompleteTextView"
               android:layout_width="match_parent"
               android:layout_height="wrap_content"
               android:hint="type numbers" />
   
   
           <Button
               android:layout_width="match_parent"
               android:layout_height="wrap_content"
               android:layout_marginTop="100dp"
