Update here is the latest solution

implementation 'io.github.ponnamkarthik:richlinkpreview:1.0.9'

in your XML

<io.github.ponnamkarthik.richlinkpreview.RichLinkView
    android:id="@+id/richLinkView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">
</io.github.ponnamkarthik.richlinkpreview.RichLinkView>

in java :

richLinkView = (RichLinkView) findViewById(R.id.richLinkView);
        
        
        
        richLinkView.setLink("https://stackoverflow.com", new ViewListener() {
            
            @Override
            public void onSuccess(boolean status) {
                
            }
            
            @Override
            public void onError(Exception e) {
                
            }
        });

You can use this Android Link Preview library on github. for that just add the repository to your build.gradle file like this

repositories {
jcenter()
maven { url 'https://github.com/leonardocardoso/mvn-repo/raw/master/maven-deploy'}
     }

And you can use the artifacts like this:

dependencies {
compile 'org.jsoup:jsoup:1.8.3' // required
compile 'com.leocardz:link-preview:1.2.1@aar'

}

you can download a sample application from here

I just tried and implement the Rich Link Preview feature into my app through URLEmbeddedView and it was working perfectly fine. Before that, i tried to implement almost all solutions but failed because mostly are outdated and do not support on the latest android API levels. Let me know if anyone is facing issue
