It looks like you've got the syntax correct.

But without the rest of the code I can only guess at what might be wrong.

Have you imported the Toast widget to Android and Synced it using Gradle?

import android.widget.Toast;

This would go at the the top of your Java file.

import android.os.Bundle; import android.widget.Toast;

public class PodcastActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_podcast);

}
@Override

public void onBackPressed() { super.onBackPressed(); Toast.makeText(this,"You pressed the back button!",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); }

}
