How to know when user is done typing android

long delay = 1000; // 1 seconds after user stops typing
long last_text_edit = 0;
Handler handler = new Handler();

private Runnable input_finish_checker = new Runnable() {
    public void run() {
        if (System.currentTimeMillis() > (last_text_edit + delay - 500)) {
            // TODO: do what you need here
            // ............

    @Override
    public void beforeTextChanged (CharSequence s,int start, int count,
    int after){
    }
    @Override
    public void onTextChanged ( final CharSequence s, int start, int before,
    int count){
        //You need to remove this to run only once
        handler.removeCallbacks(input_finish_checker);

    }
    @Override
    public void afterTextChanged ( final Editable s){
        //avoid triggering event when text is empty
        if (s.length() > 0) {
            last_text_edit = System.currentTimeMillis();
            handler.postDelayed(input_finish_checker, delay);
