What is the Android version of of HTML’s TextArea?
What is the view element in Android which gives an effect like an HTML textarea input widget?
I want to create a form to send Email and for the body field I want to create a textarea type of UI element in the form.
Can someone suggest the way to do this?

Answer 1
EditText would seem to be the obvious choice here.
