UIPopoverViewController-like element in Android

Question

I am now porting a iPad application to Android tablets, and it uses a lot of UIPopoverViewController. I have tried creating a "layout" to show in fullscreen at front with a small content view, it works well, but I was wondering if there is a native element for this kind of functionality. Thanks for your time.

Answer 1

I think you are asking for QuickActionController in Android. And I don't think there is a native element available in Android. But still the examples below make use of a pop up dialog with some animations to make it look like popoverviewController, Here is a example to start with,
