what you are currently using is :

popupWindow.showAtLocation(mainLayout, Gravity.TOP, 0, 0);

What you want to use is :

popupWindow.showAsDropDown(anchor, offsetX, offsetY, gravity);

The above code shows the popup relative to the specified anchor view. you can use the view of the item at the time of OnClick or OnLongClick Event. This will show as a dropdown relative to the item. If you want to show it above the itemView, You can change it accordingly by changing the value of offsetY. like :

popupWindow.showAsDropDown(anchor, 0, -anchor.getHeight() + popupView.getHeight());
