There is a very useful library that lets you do this - https://github.com/marvinlabs/android-slideshow-widget

You can also see a working demo of this library - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.marvinlabs.widget.slideshow.demo

If you want to implement the logic yourself, you can make the use of a timer and change the image references in the image view.
