## Using bottom navigation
Before you can use the Material bottom navigation, you need to add a dependency
to the Material Components for Android library. For more information, go to the
[Getting started](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/docs/getting-started.md)
page.
A typical layout looks like this:
```xml
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
...
<com.google.android.material.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigationView
android:id="@+id/bottom_navigation"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:menu="@menu/bottom_navigation_menu" />
</LinearLayout>
```
The `@menu/bottom_navigation_menu` resource should point to a file named
`bottom_navigation_menu.xml` inside a `menu` resource directory:
```xml
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:id="@+id/item_1"
android:enabled="true"
android:icon="@drawable/icon_1"
android:title="@string/text_label_1"/>
<item
android:id="@+id/item_2"
android:enabled="true"
android:icon="@drawable/icon_2"
android:title="@string/text_label_2"/>
</menu>
```
**Note:** `BottomNavigationView` does not support more than 5 `menu` items.
In code:
```kt
NavigationBarView.OnItemSelectedListener { item ->
when(item.itemId) {
R.id.item_1 -> {
// Respond to navigation item 1 click
true
}
R.id.item_2 -> {
// Respond to navigation item 2 click
true
}
else -> false
}
}
```
There's also a method for detecting when navigation items have been reselected:
```kt
bottomNavigation.setOnItemReselectedListener { item ->
when(item.itemId) {
R.id.item_1 -> {
// Respond to navigation item 1 reselection
}
R.id.item_2 -> {
// Respond to navigation item 2 reselection
}
}
}
```
That results in:
![Bottom navigation bar with a white background, one selected purple icon and
another unselected icon.](assets/bottomnav/bottom-nav-default.png)
**Note:** We have deprecated the
`BottomNavigationView#setOnNavigationItemSelectedListener` and
`BottomNavigationView#setOnNavigationItemReselectedListener` methods in favor of
the listeners in `NavigationBarView`. This allows you to share selection
handling code between the `BottomNavigation` and `NavigationRail` view elements.
### Making bottom navigation accessible
You should set an `android:title` for each of your `menu` items so that screen
readers like TalkBack can properly announce what each navigation item
represents:
```xml
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
...
android:title="@string/text_label"/>
...
</menu>
```
The `labelVisibilityMode` attribute can be used to adjust the behavior of the
text labels for each navigation item. There are four visibility modes:
* `LABEL_VISIBILITY_AUTO` (default): The label behaves as “labeled” when there
are 3 items or less, or “selected” when there are 4 items or more
* `LABEL_VISIBILITY_SELECTED`: The label is only shown on the selected
navigation item
* `LABEL_VISIBILITY_LABELED`: The label is shown on all navigation items
* `LABEL_VISIBILITY_UNLABELED`: The label is hidden for all navigation items
### Adding badges
![Bottom navigation with 3 icons with badges, an icon only badge and two
numbered badges showing 99 and
999+](assets/bottomnav/bottom-navigation-badges.png)
Initialize and show a `BadgeDrawable` associated with `menuItemId`, subsequent
calls to this method will reuse the existing `BadgeDrawable`:
```kt
var badge = bottomNavigation.getOrCreateBadge(menuItemId)
badge.isVisible = true
// An icon only badge will be displayed unless a number or text is set:
badge.number = 99 // or badge.text = "New"
```
As a best practice, if you need to temporarily hide the badge, for instance
until the next notification is received, change the visibility of
`BadgeDrawable`:
```kt
val badgeDrawable = bottomNavigation.getBadge(menuItemId)
if (badgeDrawable != null) {
badgeDrawable.isVisible = false
badgeDrawable.clearNumber() // or badgeDrawable.clearText()
}
```
To remove any `BadgeDrawable`s that are no longer needed:
```kt
bottomNavigation.removeBadge(menuItemId)
```
See the [`BadgeDrawable`](BadgeDrawable.md) documentation for more information
about badges.
## Bottom navigation bar
![Example bottom navigation bar with four icons along the bottom: favorites,
music, places, and news. The music icon is
selected](assets/bottomnav/bottom-nav-generic.png)
### Bottom navigation bar example
API and source code:
* `BottomNavigationView`
* [Class description](https://developer.android.com/reference/com/google/android/material/bottomnavigation/BottomNavigationView)
* [Class source](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/lib/java/com/google/android/material/bottomnavigation/BottomNavigationView.java)
The following example shows a bottom navigation bar with four icons:
![Bottom navigation bar with four icons](assets/bottomnav/bottom-nav-generic.png)
In `layout.xml`:
```xml
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<com.google.android.material.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigationView
android:id="@+id/bottom_navigation"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:menu="@menu/bottom_navigation_menu" />
</LinearLayout>
```
In `bottom_navigation_menu.xml` inside a `menu` resource directory:
```xml
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:id="@+id/page_1"
android:enabled="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_star"
android:title="@string/page_1"/>
<item
android:id="@+id/page_2"
android:enabled="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_star"
android:title="@string/page_2"/>
<item
android:id="@+id/page_3"
android:enabled="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_star"
android:title="@string/page_3"/>
<item
android:id="@+id/page_4"
android:enabled="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_star"
android:title="@string/page_4"/>
</menu>
```
In code:
```kt
bottomNavigation.selectedItemId = R.id.page_2
```

[styles](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/lib/java/com/google/android/material/bottomnavigation/res/values/styles.xml),
[navigation bar attributes](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/lib/java/com/google/android/material/navigation/res/values/attrs.xml),
and
[bottom navigation attributes](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/lib/java/com/google/android/material/bottomnavigation/res/values/attrs.xml).
## Theming a bottom navigation bar
Bottom navigation supports
[Material Theming](https://material.io/components/bottom-navigation#theming),
which can customize color and typography.
### Bottom navigation theming example
API and source code:
* `BottomNavigationView`
* [Class description](https://developer.android.com/reference/com/google/android/material/bottomnavigation/BottomNavigationView)
* [Class source](https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/tree/master/lib/java/com/google/android/material/bottomnavigation/BottomNavigationView.java)
The following example shows a bottom navigation bar with Material Theming.
![Bottom navigation bar with brown icons (favorites, music, places, news) and
pink background](assets/bottomnav/bottom-nav-theming.png)
#### Implementing bottom navigation theming
Use theme attributes and a style in `res/values/styles.xml`, which applies to
all bottom navigation bars and affects other components:
```xml
<style name="Theme.App" parent="Theme.Material3.*">
...
<item name="colorSurface">@color/shrine_theme_light_surface</item>
<item name="colorOnSurfaceVariant">@color/shrine_theme_light_onSurfaceVariant</item>
</style>
```
Use a default style theme attribute, styles, and a theme overlay, which apply to
all bottom navigation bars but do not affect other components:
```xml
<style name="Theme.App" parent="Theme.Material3.*">
...
<item name="bottomNavigationStyle">@style/Widget.App.BottomNavigationView</item>
</style>
<style name="Widget.App.BottomNavigationView" parent="Widget.Material3.BottomNavigationView">
<item name="materialThemeOverlay">@style/ThemeOverlay.App.BottomNavigationView</item>
</style>
<style name="ThemeOverlay.App.BottomNavigationView" parent="">
<item name="colorSurface">@color/shrine_theme_light_surface</item>
<item name="colorOnSurfaceVariant">@color/shrine_theme_light_onSurfaceVariant</item>
</style>
```
Use the style in the layout, which affects only this specific bottom navigation
bar:
```xml
<com.google.android.material.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigationView
...
style="@style/Widget.App.BottomNavigationView"
/>
```
