How to Add Footer to Navigationview - Android Support Design Library

How to add a footer to android menu drawer (navigation view)

There is no direct support in NavigationView to add footer . You can remove navigation view and a ListView in place of it and add header and footer to ListView .

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
    tools:openDrawer="start">

    <include
        layout="@layout/app_bar_home"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" />

   <ListView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/listView_nav"
        android:layout_gravity="start"
        android:background="@color/white"
        android:fitsSystemWindows="true"/>

</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
