FloatingHintEditText

An EditText whose hint is always visible. When the text is non-empty, the hint is shrunk and positioned above the text.

Quick video demo here.

This implementation extends EditText directly, so you can substitute FloatingHintEditText for your existing EditTexts and things should Just Work (TM). No container layouts required.
