This example demonstrates How to add checkbox list in the alert dialog

Step 1 − Create a new project in Android Studio, go to File ⇒ New Project and fill all required details to create a new project.

Step 2 − Add the following code to res/layout/activity_main.xml.

<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android = "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   android:layout_width = "match_parent"
   android:gravity = "center"
   android:layout_height = "match_parent">
   <TextView
      android:id = "@+id/click"
      android:layout_width = "wrap_content"
      android:textSize = "30sp"
      android:layout_height = "wrap_content"
      android:text = "Click"/>
</LinearLayout>

In the above code, we have taken text view.

Step 3 − Add the following code to src/MainActivity.java

package com.example.myapplication;
import android.annotation.TargetApi;
import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.os.Build;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AlertDialog;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Switch;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
   TextView text;
   @TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP)
   @Override
   public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
      setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
      text = findViewById(R.id.click);
      text.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
         @Override
         public void onClick(View v) {
            showAlertDialog();
         }
      });
   }
   private void showAlertDialog() {
      AlertDialog.Builder alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this);
      alertDialog.setTitle("AlertDialog");
      String[] items = {"java","android","Data Structures","HTML","CSS"};
      boolean[] checkedItems = {false, false, false, false, false,false};
      alertDialog.setMultiChoiceItems(items, checkedItems, new DialogInterface.OnMultiChoiceClickListener() {
         @Override
         public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which, boolean isChecked) {
            switch (which) {
               case 0:
                  if(isChecked)
                     Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Clicked on java", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
               break;
               case 1:
                  if(isChecked)
                     Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Clicked on android", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
               break;
               case 2:
                  if(isChecked)
                     Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Clicked on Data Structures", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                  break;
               case 3:
                  if(isChecked)
                     Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Clicked on HTML", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
               break;
               case 4:
                  if(isChecked)
                     Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Clicked on CSS", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
               break;
            }
         }
      });
      AlertDialog alert = alertDialog.create();
      alert.setCanceledOnTouchOutside(false);
      alert.show();
   }
}
