Just like the title says I'm trying to get rid of this bar and I could find no reference to it anywhere in my xml or code. I was looking around on this website also and could not find a suggestion that worked. I mean the blue area that says listview on it. Thanks!

  • Why do you want to remove the Toolbar? – OneCricketeer Nov 10 '16 at 15:37
  • Do you mean the scrollbar? – Dani M Nov 10 '16 at 15:37

    @TimCastelijns " I mean the blue area that says listview on it." I think he means the titlebar. – IAmGroot Nov 10 '16 at 15:40
  • You appear to be referring to [the action bar](https://developer.android.com/design/patterns/actionbar.html). The *vast* majority of Android apps use the action bar, as it provides common context to the user to know what app they are in, where to perform common actions, and so forth. As cricket_007 mentions, you can remove it, but *please know exactly why you are removing it*. – CommonsWare Nov 10 '16 at 15:43

You can take away it in your Activity like this

 onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
 super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

 // use this before you create a view
 ActionBar actionBar = getSupportedActionBar();
 if(actionBar != null){
     actionBar.hide();
 }

 setContentView(R.layout.some_layout);
 ...
 }
