Hi, welcome to StackOverflow. Without any indication what you tried and what you would expect to happen, it is very difficult to guess, what knowledge others could share to help you, except the obvious to read the docs (which is actually great advice if you haven't done soe). Consider reading [this](https://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask) before asking questions. — Emil Vatai, Dec 28 '20 at 04:26
@ShoaibKhalid This doesn't need code; what it needs is a clear explanation. HEET: Are you referring to the _password_ toggle? — Ryan M, Dec 28 '20 at 05:54

For normal setup the toggle button will be aligned center. I think it is caused by the padding setting?

Try to remove or adjust your padding of your TextInputEditText:

android:paddingLeft="@dimen/text"
android:paddingRight="@dimen/text"
android:paddingBottom="@dimen/pb"
