Questions tagged [android-tabactivity]

TabActivity is an Activity class that contains and runs multiple embedded activities or views.

The TabActivity is an Android Activity subclass that can be used to show content in the form of tabs(with either Views or other child Activities). With the introduction of Fragments the TabActivity is deprecated and shouldn't be used in new written code(in favor of the more robust Fragment framework).
