How to create circular ProgressBar in Android using Kotlin?


This example demonstrates how to create a circular ProgressBar in Android using Kotlin.

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"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
   android:layout_width="match_parent"
   android:layout_height="match_parent"
   android:padding="8dp"
   tools:context=".MainActivity">
   <TextView
      android:layout_width="wrap_content"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
      android:layout_marginTop="70dp"
      android:background="#008080"
      android:padding="5dp"
      android:text="TutorialsPoint"
      android:textColor="#fff"
      android:textSize="24sp"
      android:textStyle="bold" />
   <ProgressBar
      android:id="@+id/circularProgressbar"
      style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleHorizontal"
      android:layout_width="250dp"
      android:layout_height="250dp"
      android:layout_centerInParent="true"
      android:indeterminate="false"
      android:max="100"
      android:progress="50"
      android:secondaryProgress="100" />
   <TextView
      android:id="@+id/textView"
      android:layout_width="250dp"
      android:layout_height="250dp"
      android:layout_centerInParent="true"
      android:gravity="center"
      android:text="25%"
      android:textColor="@color/colorPrimaryDark"
      android:textSize="24sp" />
</RelativeLayout>

Step 3 − Create a drawable resource file (circularprogressbar.xml) and add the following code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
   xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   tools:ignore="ExtraText">
   android:layout_width="wrap_content"
   android:layout_height="wrap_content">
   <item android:id="@android:id/secondaryProgress">
   <shape
      android:innerRadiusRatio="6"
      android:shape="ring"
      android:thicknessRatio="20.0"
      android:useLevel="true">
      <gradient
         android:centerColor="@android:color/holo_green_light"
         android:endColor="@android:color/holo_red_dark"
         android:startColor="@android:color/white"
         android:type="sweep" />
      </shape>
   </item>
   <item android:id="@android:id/progress">
      <rotate
         android:fromDegrees="270"
         android:pivotX="50%"
         android:pivotY="50%"
         android:toDegrees="270">
         <shape
            android:innerRadiusRatio="6"
            android:shape="ring"
            android:thicknessRatio="20.0"
            android:useLevel="true">
            <gradient
               android:centerColor="@android:color/holo_blue_dark"
               android:endColor="@android:color/holo_purple"
               android:startColor="@android:color/holo_orange_dark"
               android:type="sweep" />
            <rotate
               android:fromDegrees="0"
               android:pivotX="50%"
               android:pivotY="50%"
               android:toDegrees="360" />
         </shape>
      </rotate>
   </item>
   <item android:id="@android:id/secondaryProgress">
      <shape
         android:innerRadiusRatio="6"
         android:shape="ring"
         android:thicknessRatio="20.0"
         android:useLevel="true">
         <gradient
            android:centerColor="@android:color/holo_blue_dark"
            android:endColor="@android:color/holo_purple"
            android:startColor="@android:color/holo_orange_dark"
            android:type="sweep" />
      </shape>
   </item>
</layer-list>

Step 4 − Add the following code to src/MainActivity.kt

import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import android.os.Bundle
import android.os.Handler
import android.widget.ProgressBar
import android.widget.TextView
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
   internal var status = 0
   private val handler = Handler()
   lateinit var textView: TextView
   override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
      setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
      title = "KotlinApp"
      val resources = resources
      val drawable = resources.getDrawable(R.drawable.circularprogressbar)
      val progressBar: ProgressBar = findViewById(R.id.circularProgressbar)
      progressBar.progress = 0
      progressBar.secondaryProgress = 100
      progressBar.max = 100
      progressBar.progressDrawable = drawable
      textView = findViewById(R.id.textView)
      Thread {
         while (status < 100) {
            status += 1
            handler.post {
               progressBar.progress = status
               textView.text = String.format("%d%%", status)
            }
            try {
               Thread.sleep(16)
            }
            catch (e: InterruptedException) {
               e.printStackTrace()
            }
         }
      }.start()
   }
}

Step 5  − Add the following code to androidManifest.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   package="com.example.q11">
   <application
      android:allowBackup="true"
      android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
      android:label="@string/app_name"
      android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
      android:supportsRtl="true"
      android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
      <activity android:name=".MainActivity">
         <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
         </intent-filter>
      </activity>
   </application>
</manifest>

Let's try to run your application. I assume you have connected your actual Android Mobile device with your computer. To run the app from android studio, open one of your project's activity files and click the Run iconPlay from the toolbar. Select your mobile device as an option and then check your mobile device which will display your default screen.
