Print EditText output in \n format - android

I enter edittext text and I enter three lines of text. The output of these lines is as follows "Line1 line2 Line3 ". But I want it to be printed as" Line1 \ nLine \ 2Line \ 3 ".

 final EditText edittext = new EditText(getContext());
Solution

  • If the output you want to achieve is this

    Line 1
Line 2
Line 3

    Use this code

    String text = edittext.getText().toString();
List<String> splittedText = text.split(" ");
String formattedText = "";
for (int i = 0; i < splittedText.size(); i++) {
    formattedText += splittedText[i] + "\n";
}
Toast.makeText(this, formattedText, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
