Android Question EditText view with URLs in text

HI, All

Is it possible to show long texts (non-HTML, just plain text) with underlined clickable URLs, if they exist in the text ?

See the Clickable Text example for CSBuilder. You can handle the word that was clicked using the Word_Click event.

You had mentioned using "plain text" so that is why I recommended CSBuilder.

You can try a RichText/RichString library which embeds the formatting in the text itself.
Take a look at:
