Showing password in EditText like Linkedin "Style"

Question

I'm developing a APP for Android for educational purposes, and I see this in Linkedin APP. I like it!

Is a eye, and function is similar to CheckBox.

How I can do this?

Is a customized EditText? Is a customized CheckBox inside EditText?

**SHOWING PASSWORD** **UNSHOWING PASSWORD**

The password box is probably a Horizontal Linear Layout with a background border surrounding it. For the edittext, it seems like a custom styled one, you can look here to figure out how to implement one.

Edit: As for the checkbox, look here

just pass null to setTransformationMethod to show the password like --->

yourEditText.setTransformationMethod(null);
