You can use SimpleDateFormat

   String dateString = "14-04-2021 18:04:87";
     
   Date date = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss").parse(dateString);
    
   String result = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm aa").format(date);

    Please don’t teach the young ones to use the long outdated and notoriously troublesome `SimpleDateFormat` class. At least not as the first option. And not without any reservation. We have so much better in [`java.time`, the modern Java date and time API,](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/datetime/) and its `DateTimeFormatter`. Yes, you can use it on Android. For older Android look into [desugaring](https://developer.android.com/studio/write/java8-support-table). – Ole V.V. Apr 14 '21 at 16:42
