Hi,

maybe you need to use a layout like linear and set the orientation horizontal. Then your buttons will be one above the other.

Or if you are using constraint layout you need to use the arrows to set the order.

You are probably using a constraint layout. In order to learn how to use buttons and field text in a constraint layout follow the instruction in the following page, https://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/building-ui.html

in the design view put all the buttons and the stuff the way you want and then click on Infer constraints you can find it up with the eye icon (the forth one from the left). then run the app and it must look good now! I hope that helps
