How to start keyboard with uppercase letter for the user to start writing without having to tap the arrow to make the letter uppercase?

I used android:inputType="textCapCharacters" but it didn’t work out right, because he writes the whole text on one line and I don’t want that to happen

Basically there are two ways to capitalize the first character on the keyboard, via XML and programmatically. See:

XML

Set up your ExitText thus using textCapWords|textCapSentences:

android:inputType="textCapWords|textCapSentences"

Programmatically 

EditText editor = new EditText(this); 
editor.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | InputType.TYPE_TEXT_FLAG_CAP_SENTENCES);

See more details in the documentation.

  • This textCapSentences works yes, but it does not break line understand? I will test this Edittext

    @Aline made an amendment, inserting textCapWord along with textCapSentences and it worked perfect here in my application. If there are any more questions, call here.

  • It worked here....
