Different label and hint for TextInputLayout

by

I took a similar approach to Rehan

<android.support.design.widget.TextInputEditText
    android:id="@+id/edit_text"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>


editText.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
    @Override
    public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
        if (hasFocus) {
            inputLayout.setHint("We did it!");
        } else {
            inputLayout.setHint("Testing 123");
        }
    }
});

The animation was good enough for me without disabling the animation:
