Tabs

Tabs in the action bar make it easy to explore and switch between different views or functional aspects of your app, or to browse categorized data sets.

Scrollable Tabs

Scrolling tab controls can contain a larger number of items than a standard tab control. To navigate to the next/previous view, swipe left or right.
