In Android how can I show a very long text (190 words), is there any idea better then textview?

Question

I have a long text, about almost 1000 character including spaces (190 words). I tried to show that on a large textview, but it wasn't that great, didn't look pro, so is there any other idea?

Thanks for helping, and for trying to help.

Answer 1

What about using a WebView and pull the data from your resources? The data you load into a webview can come from anywhere, including a local file.

Answer 2

wrap the text view in a ScrollView, then it doesn't matter how long your text is.
