Answer 1

AppBar is actually a Linearlayout . Try this:

   <TextView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:text="Ranger"
        android:id="@+id/logoSign"/>

Answer 2

just use this code for textview

<TextView
        android:layout_width="match_content"
        android:layout_height="match_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:text="Ranger"
        android:id="@+id/logoSign"/>

<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
    android:id="@+id/appbar"
    android:layout_height="57dp"
    android:layout_width="match_parent">
    <LinearLayout
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:orientation="horizontal"
            android:gravity="center">
        <TextView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="Ranger"
            android:id="@+id/logoSign"/>
    </LinearLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>

Answer 4

What you can do is Take a RelativeLayout inside the AppBar with height and width as "match_parent" and put the TextView inside the RelativeLayout and make it as

android:layout_centerInParent="true"

Hope this helps.

        android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal|center_vertical"
        android:text="Ranger"
