Customise android search view
I have a search view that looks like the following
I want it to resemble the following
Following is the code
<SearchView
android:id="@+id/search_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:iconifiedByDefault="false"
android:keyboardNavigationCluster="true"
android:queryHint="@string/search_teams"
android:textColor="@color/grey" />
I want to be able to left align and customize the query hint in the search view by changing the font. By default the text is center aligned, is there any way I can change that?

SerachViewis a widget/container, which internally uses many other view like textview and several other views inside to form theSerachViewlayout. What I would do is, read the SerachView class and find theTextViewbeing used and then get a reference to thatTextViewbysearchView.findViewById(serachviewTextViewId)and then apply the property to theTextView

You need to specify Searchable Configuration in a separate xml file and set below properties
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<searchable xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:label="@string/search_label"
android:hint="@string/search_hint"
android:voiceSearchMode="showVoiceSearchButton|launchRecognizer" >
</searchable>
From documentation refer here for more options
You can add voice search functionality to your search dialog or widget
by adding the android:voiceSearchMode attribute to your searchable
configuration. This adds a voice search button that launches a voice
prompt.
