EditText text not being recognized as String

[CSumm]

I'm trying to encrypt text from an EditText field, which is input by the user assigned an equated variable which goes through the encryption process. It does not recognize [EditText].text as a string but an editable. Is there any way to use user's input instead of hardcoding a string?

Interesting. I'll study to change the signature to CharSequence so you can use the Editable and how is using the String can continue using it without problems.

Shouldn't have a problem in just using the toString of the charSequence for this.
