just try to inherit Activity instead of AppCompatActivity to your quiz.java activity

like at top of code 

public class Quiz extends Activity{

Ok i think you need to provide context of the Activity. Try this:

new AlertDialog.Builder(YourClassName.this)
                .setTitle("Title")
                .setMessage("Message?")
                .setCancelable(false)
                .setNegativeButton("No", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                        //Function on no
                })
                .setPositiveButton("Yes", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                       //Function on yes
                    }
                })
                .show();

  • I only changed new AlertDialog.Builder(getApplicationcontext()) to (quiz.this) and it worked.Can you please tell me the difference as both approaches are fine to go with. – Umair Iqbal Jul 13 '18 at 09:35
