Android studio App icons are too close

Question

I am playing around with the smart mirror code and when I build and run the app on a Android TV AVD, the app makes all the info on the screen too close. The app shown in the Github website has is all neat and spread out but mine as shown below is all together.

Is there a setting I forgot to change?

Answer 1

Try to add this line in activity_home.xml to control your textSize ,the example set 30sp, you can set other what you need.

Example

<TextView
        android:id="@+id/news_1"
        style="@style/NewsStyle"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="left"
        android:layout_marginBottom="@dimen/intra_group_margin"
        android:drawableLeft="@drawable/news_ap"
        android:drawablePadding="@dimen/icon_margin"
add >   android:textSize = "30sp" 
        tools:text="Obama, Sanders at the White House: Nice chat but that's all"/>
