I am trying to override the menu item (web search) after long press in any text. The default menu contains "select", "select all" and "search" in icons. When I check search length icon, it lead me to google search with selected text.

I want to override that action. i.e when I click search lens I want to implement my custom action.

Please help me.

Please refer image below:

There is no easier way to do this. If you have to do that you need to create a custom webview class and get the inflate to work with your menu – Murtaza Khursheed Hussain Apr 17 '15 at 07:30
