Google's new Inbox app has a new SearchView. It is full screen with search suggestions (based on previous searches and common search phrases) with top results sections. Take a look at a screenshot:

enter image description here

Now I want to know is this a Android SDK standard view? Is it a support library (v21) view? If yes, do you know a good tutorial on how to use it? If no, do you know an available open source view like this?

If I want to implement this view, what is best approach? Creating another Activity when user clicks on Search button? opening a custom dialog? any idea?

  • It's a standard SearchView, have you tried this? – pskink Jan 04 '15 at 07:20
  • Did you manage to achieve it? I've been looking around for this too – gaara87 Mar 06 '15 at 01:26
  • that's definitetly not the standard SearchView, I'm looking for an implementation too. my current approaches are going in the way of showing a new activity or displaying a fragment over the activity – da_berni Jun 11 '15 at 15:00
