Is there any way of auto importing (like in Eclipse Shift+Ctrl+O) in Android Studio?

I have found only Ctrl+Alt+O which ask for each thing, and I have to press Alt+Enter to accept it.

No way to do it faster?

"organise imports on the fly" is what you want, if you opened settings and in the search box type 'import' you would have found itBlundell

For Windows/Linux, you can go to File -> Settings -> Editor -> General -> Auto Import -> Java and make the following changes:

  • change Insert imports on paste value to All

  • markAdd unambigious imports on the fly option as checked

On a Mac, do the same thing in Android Studio -> Preferences

enter image description here

After this, all unambiguous imports will be added automatically.

By changing the keymaps settings you can use the same keyboard short cuts as in Eclipse (Or your favourite IDE)

File -> Settings -> KeyMap

Android Studio -> Preferences -> KeyMap (Mac)

Change keymaps settings to eclipse so that you can use the short cut keys like in eclipse. For those who just want to change this one setting, it is

Main Menu -> Code -> Optimize Imports...

In the Latest Version of Android Studio, the options for Auto-Import is enabled by default, so kudos no need to worry about that.

On Windows: If for some reasons auto-import is not enable you can go to settings by typing shortcut: Ctrl+Alt+S.

In the Search term just type 'Auto-Import' and then select 'Add unambiguous Imports on the fly' and click Ok.

That's it. You are Done. SnapShot of Auto_import

as I have found on kotlin training from google developers, on android studio 4.2.2, On macOS, open the settings by going to File > New Project Settings > Preferences for New Projects... Expand Other Settings > Auto Import. In the Java and Kotlin sections, make sure Add unambiguous imports on the fly and Optimize imports on the fly (for current project) are checked. Note that there are two checkboxes in each section. Save the changes and close settings by pressing OK.

The unambiguous imports settings tell Android Studio to automatically add an import statement, as long as it can determine which one to use. The optimize imports settings tell Android Studio to remove any imports that aren't being used by your code.
