Dynamically add and remove tabs in TabLayout(material design) android
I have a TabLayout and inside that I have ViewPager. I need to dynamically add and remove tab in tablayout(material design). I can able to add the tabs dynamically but while removing the tab, tab is removing correctly. But viewpager last item is deleted. So tab is not showing specific fragment. FYI i have used FragmentPagerAdapter.
I have followed this tutorial to implement this

public class TabFragment extends Fragment {
public static TabLayout tabLayout;
public static ViewPager viewPager;
public static int int_items = 2;
private MyNewsFragment mMyNewsFragment;
private ArrayList<TabFragmentModelClass> mFragmentArrayList;
private TabLayoutAdapter mTabLayoutAdapter;
@Nullable
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
mMyNewsFragment = new MyNewsFragment();
/**
*Inflate tab_layout and setup Views.i;;a
*/
View x = inflater.inflate(R.layout.tab_layout, null);
tabLayout = (TabLayout) x.findViewById(R.id.tabs);
tabLayout.setTabMode(TabLayout.MODE_SCROLLABLE); // scorllable tab
tabLayout.setTabGravity(TabLayout.GRAVITY_FILL); // tab name fill parent
viewPager = (ViewPager) x.findViewById(R.id.viewpager);
mFragmentArrayList = new ArrayList<>();
mFragmentArrayList.add(new TabFragmentModelClass(new MyNewsSelectionFragment(), "", ""));
mFragmentArrayList.add(new TabFragmentModelClass(mMyNewsFragment, "", getResources().getString(R.string.mynews)));
mFragmentArrayList.add(new TabFragmentModelClass(new BreakingNewsFragment(), "", getResources().getString(R.string.breakingnews)));
// Selected news from shared preference
ArrayList<MyNewsSharedPreferenceModelClass> tempSharedPreferenceModelClass = new MyNewsSharedPreferenceClass().loadFavorites(getActivity());
for (int i = 0; i < tempSharedPreferenceModelClass.size(); i++) {
mFragmentArrayList.add(new TabFragmentModelClass(new CategoreyNewsFragment(tempSharedPreferenceModelClass.get(i).getmCatID()), tempSharedPreferenceModelClass.get(i).getmCatID(),

Answer
Remove tab from TabLayout
...
public void removeTab(int position) {
if (mTabLayout.getTabCount() >= 1 && position<mTabLayout.getTabCount()) {
mTabLayout.removeTabAt(position);
mPagerAdapter.removeTabPage(position);
}
}
...
Add a removeTabPage method to your PagerAdapter
...
public void removeTabPage(int position) {
if (!tabItems.isEmpty() && position<tabItems.size()) {
tabItems.remove(position);
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
}
...
Add a Tab
...
private void addTab(String title) {
mTabLayout.addTab(mTabLayout.newTab().setText(title));
mPagerAdapter.addTabPage(title);
}
...
Add a addTabPage method to your PagerAdapter
...
public void addTabPage(String title) {
tabItems.add(title);
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
...
