Is there a way to generate a user id for new users like 'yik yak' does, removing the need of a login id and password? i really want to implement this as the app i am creating is not e-commerce so there is no need for such tight security. Also would there be a way to display the generated user so users could add each other as friends?

I am not sure about a user ID, but I have used this to generate a device specific ID for similar purposes to what your are describing.

There is a way to do this using the faker library: https://www.bloco.io/blog/2015/faker-a-library-to-generate-fake-data-for-java-android

Please follow their tutorial.
