From Official documents about Re-using Layouts     Although Android offers a variety of widgets to provide small and   re-usable interactive elements  you might also need to re-use larger   components that require a special layout  To efficiently re-use   complete layouts  you can use the  tag to embed another   layout inside the current layout    Here is my header xml file which i can reuse using include tag   lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt   lt RelativeLayout xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android      android layout width  fill parent      android layout height  fill parent      android background   FFFFFF       gt         lt TextView         android layout width  fill parent          android layout height  fill parent          android layout centerHorizontal  true          android layout centerVertical  true          android gravity  center          android text   string app name          android textColor   000000    gt    lt  RelativeLayout gt    No I use the  tag in XML to add another layout from another XML file    lt RelativeLayout xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android      android layout width  fill parent      android layout height  fill parent      android background   f0f0f0   gt         lt include         android id    id header VIEW          android layout width  fill parent          android layout height  wrap content          layout   layout header    gt            lt LinearLayout         android layout width  fill parent          android layout height  wrap content          android layout margin  5dp          android background   ffffff          android orientation  vertical          android padding  5dp   gt         lt  LinearLayout gt

Note that if you include android id    into the  lt include   gt  tag  it will override whatever id was defined inside the included layout   For example    lt include    android layout width  fill parent     android layout height  wrap content     android id    id some id if needed     layout   layout yourlayout    gt    yourlayout xml     lt LinearLayout    android layout width  fill parent     android layout height  wrap content     android id    id some other id  gt      lt Button        android layout width  fill parent         android layout height  wrap content         android id    id button1    gt    lt  LinearLayout gt    Then you would reference this included layout in code as follows   View includedLayout   findViewById R id some id if needed   Button insideTheIncludedLayout    Button includedLayout findViewById R id button1
