8,534 PointsMistake in the video?
Hi Ben Jakuben. Thanks for this very useful course, anyway I suppose but I'm not sure that you made a mistake in the video. When you run at 2:33 the video the boxes have the max width they can have (the total space minus the padding divided by 3). That didn't happen to me, because the width just matched the name length of the contact. So I looked a bit the project and while you in the video put android:layout_width="wrap_content" it should have been android:layout_width="match_parent", in fact using that value for me it looks just like your. Did you forget to put that part in the video?
