Android TabHost provides a nice way to present multiple thing on a Single Screen. These things are presented by Tabs.
In order to use tabs we need to set 2 things to Tab
1: Tab Indicator : Text to show on Tab, done by setIndicator("Tab Name");
2: TAB Content: The activity that will be opened when user selects/clicks particular tab, done by setContent(activityObject);
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TabHost xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:id="@android:id/tabhost">

android:id="@+id/LinearLayout01"
