use SimpleDateFormate https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html – Jainil Patel May 24 '19 at 09:24

You can parse date string to Date object. From there, you can split date and time in any format using SimpleDateFormat – Ankit ihelper Sharma May 24 '19 at 09:25

Possible duplicate of [simpledateformat parsing date with 'Z' literal](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2580925/simpledateformat-parsing-date-with-z-literal). There are many, many similar questions. Please (always) search and go through the results you get before posting the same question again. – Ole V.V. May 25 '19 at 04:27

There are many ways. I would add [ThreeTenABP](https://github.com/JakeWharton/ThreeTenABP) to my Android project (if min API level below 26), build a `DateTimeFormatter`, possibly using a `DateTimeFormatterBuilder` and a couple of predefined formatters, parse into an `OffsetDateTIme` and convert it to `LocalDate` to get only the date. – Ole V.V.

public static String getDateTime(String created_on) {
SimpleDateFormat inFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z'");
SimpleDateFormat outFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd MMM yyyy hh:mm aa");
try {
inFormat.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC"));
Date value = inFormat.parse(created_on);
outFormat.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getDefault());
created_on = outFormat.format(value);
} catch (ParseException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return created_on;
}
Use this Function.It will help you to get Date and Time

Use some library for parsing String to e.g. OffsetDateTime, after from parsedDateTime variable get any part of the time (hour, min...) In kotlin (min API 26) :
val parsedDateTime = OffsetDateTime
.parse("2019-05-21 04:49:39.000Z", DateTimeFormatter.ISO_DATE_TIME)
val time = "${parsedDateTime.hour} : ${parsedDateTime.minute}"
check this link for more examples : examples

Update :
As Ole V.V. mentioned in comment - if you’re not yet on API level 26, you may add ThreeTenABP to your Android project and import OffsetDateTime from there (and than the same code works for lower API).

1If you’re not yet on API level 26, you may add [ThreeTenABP](https://github.com/JakeWharton/ThreeTenABP) to your Android project and import from `org.threeten.bp` with subpackages and then the same code works. – Ole V.V. May 25 '19 at 04:23
