        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
        android:text="Show Progress"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"

android:layout_height="match_parent">

<Button

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:text="Show Progress"

app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"

app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"

app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"

app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />

</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>

Step 5- Let’s write the backend code to display the progressdialog box in your android device.

MainActivity.kt

import android.app.ProgressDialog
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import android.os.Bundle
import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.activity_progress__dialog.*

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

        val progressDialog = ProgressDialog(this)
        progressDialog.setTitle("Please Wait")
        progressDialog.setMessage("Loading ...")
        Progress.setOnClickListener { progressDialog.show() }
    }

}

import android.app.ProgressDialog

import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity

import android.os.Bundle

import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.activity_progress__dialog.*

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)

setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

val progressDialog = ProgressDialog(this)

progressDialog.setTitle("Please Wait")

progressDialog.setMessage("Loading ...")

Progress.setOnClickListener { progressDialog.show() }

}

Below is the output screenshot when you will run the android app in android emulator or your real android device.
