Scale font size for different support device Different screen density using the following size scale: xxxhdpi : 4.0 xxhdpi : 3.0 xhdpi : 2.0 hdpi : 1.5 mdpi : 1.0 (baseline) ldpi : 0.75 A set of six generalized  densities : ldpi  (low) ~120dpi mdpi  (medium) ~160dpi hdpi  (high) ~240dpi xhdpi  (extra-high) ~320dpi xxhdpi  (extra-extra-high) ~480dpi xxxhdpi  (extra-extra-extra-high) ~640dpi Below function use for convert dp(Density indipendent pixel) to PX. public static int dp2px(Context context, float dpValue) { final float scale = context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density; return (int) (dpValue * scale + 0.5f); } Now We are going to set dynamic font size for all device  Note: It will work only on the device, not on the tablet. we need to write different logic for the tablet. textView.setTextSize(TypedValue. COMPLEX_UNIT_PX , dp2px ( this , 12f )); How It works on different screen....
