My requirements: create "incoming bubble" with width by content and max width 90%.
I have this markup:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:orientation="horizontal" android:weightSum="1.0" tools:background="@color/white_smoke"> <LinearLayout android:id="@+id/flBubble" android:layout_width="0dp" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="start" android:background="@drawable/bubble_in" android:layout_weight="0.9"> <ImageView android:id="@+id/ivSay" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground" android:contentDescription="@string/default_content_description" android:padding="8dp" android:src="@drawable/ic_play_circle_outline_black_24dp" android:tint="@color/primary"/> <TextView android:id="@+id/tvValue" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" android:padding="8dp" android:textColor="@color/black" android:textSize="16sp" tools:text="I would like to go to an Italian restaurant"/> </LinearLayout> <View android:layout_width="0dp" android:layout_height="0dp" android:layout_weight="0.1"/> </LinearLayout> Sometimes I get the following result: 
But I expect the following result (it's falsely encouraging screenshot from Android Studio preview): 
How can I prevent breaking word restaraunt by letters?
UPDATE
Although I use minSdk=15 I tried to use breakStrategy and I haven't get expected result. android:breakStrategy="simple": 
android:breakStrategy="balanced": 
I found a related question: Force next word to a new line if the word is too long for the textview, but I didn't undestand how can I get maximum available width for TextView with layout_width="wrap_content?
It would be great if I could override the TextView.setText and place line breaks there if needed.

You can use webview to achieve this behavior. In webview you can use css to adjust text. Take a look at this answer
Update
You can calculate width of string and add \n to string where is string needs to split
Rect bounds = new Rect(); Paint textPaint = textView.getPaint(); textPaint.getTextBounds(text, 0, text.length(), bounds); int height = bounds.height(); int width = bounds.width(); Results is in pixels, so just check width of your view or screen and split the string.
UPDAE2: Example Code
I just wrote an example with simple layout in activity onCreate you can implement it in adapter or whatever works for you.
TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txt); //textview with empty text Rect bounds = new Rect(); Paint textPaint = textView.getPaint(); String text = "some long text here.....";// text data to work on textPaint.getTextBounds(text, 0, text.length(), bounds); int textWidth = bounds.width();// get text width in pixel int marginPadding = 100;// we have some padding and margin from xml layouts DisplayMetrics displayMetrics = new DisplayMetrics(); getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(displayMetrics); int rootWidth = displayMetrics.widthPixels-marginPadding;// maximum width on screan if (textWidth > rootWidth) { // check if need to split the string. int lineMax = (text.length() * rootWidth) / textWidth; // maximum Characters for each line String result = text.replaceAll("(.{" + String.valueOf(lineMax) + "})", "$1\n"); // regex to replace each group(lineMax) of Chars with group of char + new line textView.setText(result); } else textView.setText(text); UPDATE#3: Fixed code for Listview
onCreate
ArrayList<String> data = new ArrayList<>(); data.add("000"); data.add("aaaaaaaaaaa"); data.add("aaaaaaaaaaa bbbbbbbbbbbb"); data.add("aaaaaaaaaaa bbbbbbbbbbbb cccccccccccccccc"); data.add("aaaaaaaaaaa bbbbbbbbbbbb cccccccccccccccc ddddddddddddd"); data.add("aaaaaaaaaaa bbbbbbbbbbbb cccccccccccccccc ddddddddddddd eeeeeeeeeeeee"); data.add("aaaaaaaaaaa bbbbbbbbbbbb cccccccccccccccc ddddddddddddd eeeeeeeeeeeee ffffffffffffffffff"); data.add("aaaaaaaaaaa bbbbbbbbbbbb cccccccccccccccc ddddddddddddd eeeeeeeeeeeee ffffffffffffffffff gggggggggggggggg"); data.add("aaaaaaaaaaa bbbbbbbbbbbb cccccccccccccccc ddddddddddddd eeeeeeeeeeeee ffffffffffffffffff gggggggggggggggg hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"); ListView listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listview); MyAdapter adapter= new MyAdapter(data,this); listView.setAdapter(adapter); adapter.notifyDataSetChanged(); MyAdapter.java

Use MaxWidth property for textview or else you should provide width for textview
<com.custom.views.CustomTextView android:id="@+id/txt_send_chat" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" android:gravity="center_vertical" android:maxWidth="250dp" android:textColor="@color/color_chat_sender" android:textSize="16sp" app:font_name="@string/font_roboto_regular" /> Answers 3
Try this
<TextView android:id="@+id/tvValue" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" android:padding="8dp" android:textColor="@color/black" android:textSize="16sp" tools:text="I would like to go to an Italian restaurant"/> </LinearLayout> Answers 4
You can try with Autosizing TextViews
The Support Library 26.0 provides full support to the autosizing TextView feature on devices running Android versions prior to Android 8.0 (API level 26). The library provides support to Android 4.0 (API level 14) and higher. The android.support.v4.widget package contains the TextViewCompat class to access features in a backward-compatible fashion
For Example:
<TextView android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="200dp" android:autoSizeTextType="uniform" /> For more details Guidelines go HERE
Their is Library too HERE

Change your TextView to EditText and put this 2 lines. it should help you
android:inputType="textMultiLine" android:enabled="false" This will place you text properly and later on you can give a edit feature in your application if you need.

Try like this ;
String htmlText = " %s "; String myData = "Hello World! This tutorial is to show demo of displaying text with justify alignment in WebView."; WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView1); webView.loadData(String.format(htmlText, myData), "text/html", "utf-8"); Answers 7
Sorry couldn't comment,
try this:
android:inputType="textMultiLine"
