'I have an issue with ProgressBar Widget
Basically I have a ConsentForm Activity that the user scrolls through and give their consent. Upon pressing the consent Btn (Yes) a dialog where they have to enter their email pops up. When they enter a valid email and press the send button the progressbar should load until the next activity opens. For some reason the progress bar never appears.
Here is the Consent Activity:

Solution 1:[1]
use
android:visibility="gone"
instead of
android:visibility="invisible"
in your progressBar XML code
Solution 2:[2]
Try this:
<ProgressBar
android:id="@+id/progressBar"
style="?android:attr/progressBarStyle"
android:layout_width="80dp"
android:layout_height="80dp"
android:elevation="8dp"
android:indeterminateTint="@color/textColor"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
android:visibility="invisible"/>
Edit:
I believe the reason is that after the send button is pressed, everything is done fast and RegisterActivity is immediately run so you don't see the progress bar.
to provide a better experience for the user, launch the RegisterActivity after a delay. This way, the loading is shown, then before you show the "message sent" Toast message, make the progress bar INVISIBLE and then next activity will be loaded after a 1.5 second delay like so:
progressBar.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
toastLayout();
dialog.dismiss();
new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper()).postDelayed(() -> {
Intent intent = new Intent(Temp_InformedConsent_Activity.this, RegisterActivity.class);
finish();
startActivity(intent);
}, 1500);
