You can get Current hour from instance of Calender class like below

int nowHour = Calendar.getInstance().get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY);

Then you can use a if-else ladder like below

if(nowHour>=0 &&<nowHour<=6)
{
  textView.setText("late night");
}
else if(nowHour>=7 &&<nowHour<=11)
{
   textView.setText("morning");
}
else if(nowHour>=12 &&<nowHour<=15)
{
   textView.setText("noon");
}
else if(nowHour>=16 &&<nowHour<=18)
{
   textView.setText("afternoon");
} //and so on
