It s pretty simple  just use Android CenterInParent  quot true quot  to center both in horizontal and vertical  or use Android Horizontal  quot true quot  to center in horizontal and Android Vertical  quot true quot  And make sure you write all this in RelaytiveLayout

Summarized  Adding   android layout centerInParent  true    just works on RelativeLayout  if one of the following attributes is also set for the view   android layout alignParentLeft  true  android layout alignParentStart  true  android layout alignParentTop  true  android layout alignParentBottom  true  android layout alignParentRight  true  android layout alignParentEnd  true    which alignes the child view to the parent view  The  center  is based on the axis of the alignement you have chosen    left right -  vertical  top bottom -  horizontal  Setting the gravity of childs content inside the view   android gravity  center    is centering the child inside the parent view in any case  if there is no alignment set  Optional you can choose    lt  -- Axis to Center -- gt  android gravity  center horizontal  android gravity  center vertical    lt  -- Alignment to set-- gt  android gravity  top  android gravity  bottom  android gravity  left  android gravity  right  android gravity  fill        Then there is   android layout gravity  center    which is centering the view itself inside it s parent  And at last you can add the following attribute to the parents view   android layout centerHorizontal  true  android layout centerVertical  true
