In order to enable the resizable app feature in your apps, you can do two things. You can either enable the resizableActivity flag for your entire app, to make everything support the resizable mode, or you can enable the same flag on a per-Activity-basis, allowing only certain activities to support resizability.

<application
  android:resizeableActivity="true">
<activity
  android:configChanges="screenSize|screenLayout|smallestScreenSize|orientation" //
  android:resizeableActivity="true"> // here
<activity
  android:name=".ui.addNote.AddNoteActivity"
  android:configChanges="screenSize|screenLayout|smallestScreenSize|orientation" //
  android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan|adjustResize" />
