To adjust the EditText keyboard to only allow numeric input on Android, the following steps can be taken:

  1. In the XML layout file, add the following line to the EditText element:

android:inputType="number"

This sets the input type to numeric only.

  1. Alternatively, in the code, the following line can be used to achieve the same effect:

editText.setInputType(InputType.TYPECLASSNUMBER);

This sets the input type of the EditText field to allow only numbers.

  1. Additionally, you can add the following line in order to show the numeric keypad automatically when the EditText is focused:

editText.setRawInputType(Configuration.KEYBOARD_12KEY);

This will show the numeric keypad with only numbers and will not display the full keyboard.
