Solution 1 - Android

To add an Activity using Android Studio.

This step is same as adding Fragment, Service, Widget, and etc. Screenshot provided.

[UPDATE] Android Studio 3.5. Note that I have removed the steps for the older version. I assume almost all is using version 3.x.

  1. Right click either java package/java folder/module, I recommend to select a java package then right click it so that the destination of the Activity will be saved there
  2. Select/Click New
  3. Select Activity
  4. Choose an Activity that you want to create, probably the basic one.

To add a Service, or a BroadcastReceiver, just do the same step.

Solution 2 - Android

In Android Studio 2, just right click on app and select New > Activity > ... to create desired activity type.

Solution 3 - Android

I think natually do it is straightforward, whether Intellij IDEA or Android Studio, I always click new Java class menu, and then typing the class name, press Enter to create. after that, I manually typing "extends Activity" in the class file, and then import the class by shortcut key. finally, I also manually override the onCreate() method and invoke the setContentView() method.

In Android Studio, go to app -> src -> main -> java -> com.example.username.projectname

Right click on com.example.username.projectname -> Activity -> ActivityType

If you want to see your new Activity's XML representation, you can go to the AndroidManifest.xml file.

You will see your Activity like so:

...

<activity android:name=".MyExerciseActivity"
        android:label="My Exercise Chart"
        android:parentActivityName=".MainActivity"
        />
<activity android:name=".MainActivity">

...
