Question

I did like below in xml

Answer 1

The best answer I found for multiline TextView is:

android:inputType="textMultiLine"

Answer 2

Simply put '\n' inside your text... no extra attribute required :)

          <TextView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
            android:text="Pigeon\nControl\nServices"
            android:id="@+id/textView5"
            android:layout_gravity="center"
            android:paddingLeft="12dp"/>
