AppCompatActivity

This package is part of the Android support library which is no longer maintained. The support library has been superseded by AndroidX which is part of Jetpack. We recommend using the AndroidX libraries in all new projects. You should also consider migrating existing projects to AndroidX. To find the AndroidX class that maps to this deprecated class, see the AndroidX support library class mappings.

Base class for activities that use the support library action bar features.

You can add an ActionBar to your activity when running on API level 7 or higher by extending this class for your activity and setting the activity theme to Theme.AppCompat or a similar theme.

For information about how to use the action bar, including how to add action items, navigation modes and more, read the Action Bar API guide.
