I would like to have a button with 2 lines of text and if text is longer than 2 lines and size of maxWidth, the text should fit into the button borders.

android:maxLines="2"

doesn't work

Any tips?

Use something like:

<com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
    android:layout_width="150dp"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:maxLines="2"
    ../>

enter image description here

Android normal Button widget not having as such functionality.

You have to use the android new library 

implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.0.0-beta01'

Here is the reference.

@Gabriele Mariotti Already define the one way to use of it.
