Note that the default hyphenation frequency value is set from the theme. <p/> Enabling hyphenation with either using Layout#HYPHENATION_FREQUENCY_NORMAL or Layout#HYPHENATION_FREQUENCY_FULL while line breaking is set to one of Layout#BREAK_STRATEGY_BALANCED, Layout#BREAK_STRATEGY_HIGH_QUALITY improves the structure of text layout however has performance impact and requires more time to do the text layout. <p/> Note: Before Android Q, in the theme hyphenation frequency is set to Layout#HYPHENATION_FREQUENCY_NORMAL. The default value is changed into Layout#HYPHENATION_FREQUENCY_NONE on Q.
