• A dialog is usually a small window that appears in front of
the current Activity.
• Dialogs are normally used for notifications that should
interrupt the user and to perform short tasks that directly
relate to the application in progress (such as a progress
bar or a login prompt).
• Syntax to declare the AlertDialog box
AlertDialogalertDialog =
new AlertDialog. Builder(Main.this).create();
• Syntax to set your dialog's title like this

the form of a spinning wheel, for a task with progress
that's undefined, or a progress bar, for a task that has a
defined progression.
