This example demonstrate about How to pass multiple data from one activity to another in Android

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"
   xmlns:tools = "http://schemas.android.com/tools"
   android:layout_width = "match_parent"
   android:layout_height = "match_parent"
   android:layout_margin = "16dp"
   android:orientation = "vertical"
   tools:context = ".MainActivity">
   <EditText
      android:id = "@+id/etName"
      android:layout_width = "match_parent"
      android:layout_height = "wrap_content"
      android:layout_gravity = "center"
      android:hint = "Name"
      android:inputType = "text" />
   <EditText
      android:id = "@+id/etAge"
      android:layout_width = "match_parent"
      android:layout_height = "wrap_content"
      android:layout_gravity = "center"
      android:hint = "Age"
      android:inputType = "number" />
   <Button
      android:id = "@+id/button"
      android:layout_width = "match_parent"
      android:layout_height = "wrap_content"
      android:layout_gravity = "center"
      android:layout_marginTop = "16dp"
      android:text = "Next" />
</LinearLayout>

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

package com.example.myapplication;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
   EditText etName, etAge;
   @Override
   protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
      setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
      etName = findViewById(R.id.etName);
      etAge = findViewById(R.id.etAge);
      Button button = findViewById(R.id.button);
      button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
         @Override
         public void onClick(View v) {
            String name = etName.getText().toString().trim();
            String age = etAge.getText().toString().trim();
            Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
            bundle.putString("name", name);
            bundle.putString("age", age);
            Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, SecondActivity.class);
            intent.putExtras(bundle);
            startActivity(intent);
         }
      });
   }
}

Step 4 − Add the following code to res/layout/activity_second.xml.

<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout 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:layout_margin = "16dp"
   android:orientation = "vertical"
   tools:context = ".SecondActivity">
   <TextView
      android:id = "@+id/tvName"
      android:layout_width = "match_parent"
      android:layout_height = "wrap_content" />
   <TextView
      android:id = "@+id/tvAge"
      android:layout_width = "match_parent"
      android:layout_height = "wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>

Step 5 − Add the following code to src/SecondActivity.java

package com.example.myapplication;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class SecondActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
   @Override
   protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
      setContentView(R.layout.activity_second);
      Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
      if (bundle ! = null) {
         String name = bundle.getString("name");
         String age = bundle.getString("age");
         TextView tvName = findViewById(R.id.tvName);
         TextView tvAge = findViewById(R.id.tvAge);
         tvName.setText(name);
         tvAge.setText(age);
      }
   }
}

Step 6 − 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.myapplication">
   <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>
      <activity android:name = ".SecondActivity"></activity>
   </application>
</manifest>

Let's try to run your application. I assume you have connected your actual Android Mobile device with your computer.
