How do I select all the text in an editText after the user is finished typing in it?

Question

I have an EditText with some dummy text in it. When the user finishes typing I want to be able to have all the text selected.

How can I achieve this?

You can use Rx's debounce to do that,

    RxTextView.textChanges(editText)
        .debounce(3, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
        .subscribe { textChanged: CharSequence? ->
            Log.d(
                "TAG",
                "Stopped typing!"
            )
            editText.selectAll()
        }
