You can change the Color of Android EditText View by creating a custom XML for the cursor,
1. Create a file custom_edit_text_cursor.xml under res/drawable folder,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<size
android:width="2dip" />
<solid
android:color="@color/green" />
</shape>
2. Now add attribute android:textCursorDrawable to your EditText View XML,
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="top"
android:lineSpacingExtra="10dp"
android:textCursorDrawable="@drawable/custom_edit_text_cursor"
</EditText>
⚠️ Note: textCursorDrawable was introduced in Android SDK Level 12, hence you need to set minSDK level 12 or above for this to work! You may get a warning if you set minSDK level below API Level 12.
❗️ Attribute "textCursorDrawable" is only available in API level 12 and higher (current min is 8)
