There are multiple ways to do it  If you have the string which you want to replace you can use the replace or replaceAll methods of the String class  If you are looking to replace a substring you can get the substring using the substring API   For example  String str    manchester united  with nice players    System out println str replace   with nice players          int index   str indexOf       System out println str substring 0  index      To replace content within      you can use   int startIndex   str indexOf       int endIndex   str indexOf       String replacement    I AM JUST A REPLACEMENT   String toBeReplaced   str substring startIndex   1  endIndex   System out println str replace toBeReplaced  replacement

Kotlin Solution  If you are removing a specific string from the end  use removeSuffix  Documentation   var text    one two  text   text removeSuffix   two       one    If the suffix does not exist in the string  it just returns the original  var text    one three  text   text removeSuffix   two       one three    If you want to remove after a character  use      Each results in  one   text   text replaceAfter          dropLast 1     You should check char is present before  dropLast     or text   text removeRange text indexOf       text length     or text   text replaceRange text indexOf       text length        You can also check out removePrefix  removeRange  removeSurrounding  and replaceAfterLast which are similar  The Full List is here   Documentation
