A [TabLayout](<http://stackoverflow.com/documentation/android/124/material-design-for-all-android-versions/11500/adding-a-tablayout#t=20160919163836024731>) can be used for easier navigation.

You can set the tabs for each fragment in your adapter by using TabLayout.newTab() method but there is another more convenient and easier method for this task which is [TabLayout.setupWithViewPager()](<https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/design/widget/TabLayout.html#setupWithViewPager(android.support.v4.view.ViewPager)>).

This method will sync by creating and removing tabs according to the contents of the adapter associated with your ViewPager each time you call it.

Also, it will set a callback so each time the user flips the page, the corresponding tab will be selected.

Just define a layout

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout>

    <android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
        android:id="@+id/tabs"
        app:tabMode="scrollable" />

    <android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
        android:id="@+id/viewpager"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="0px"
        android:layout_weight="1" />

</LinearLayout>

Then implement the FragmentPagerAdapter and apply it to the ViewPager:

public class MyViewPagerActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    private static final String TAG = MyViewPagerActivity.class.getName();

    private MyPagerAdapter mFragmentAdapter;
    private ViewPager mViewPager;
    private TabLayout mTabLayout;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);    
        setContentView(R.layout.myActivityLayout);

        // Get the ViewPager and apply the PagerAdapter
        mFragmentAdapter = new MyPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());    
        mViewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.view_pager);
        mViewPager.setAdapter(mFragmentAdapter);

        // link the tabLayout and the viewpager together
        mTabLayout = (TabLayout) findViewById(R.id.tab_layout);
        mTabLayout.setupWithViewPager(mViewPager);
    }

    private class MyPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter{

        public MyPagerAdapter(FragmentManager supportFragmentManager) {
            super(supportFragmentManager);
        }

         // Returns the fragment to display for that page
        @Override
        public Fragment getItem(int position) {
            switch(position) {
                case 0:
                    return new Fragment1();

                case 1:
                    return new Fragment2();

                case 2:
                    return new Fragment3();

                default:
                    return null;
            }
        }
        
        // Will be displayed as the tab's label
        @Override
        public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
            switch(position) {
                case 0:
                    return "Fragment 1 title";

                case 1:
                    return "Fragment 2 title";

                case 2:
                    return "Fragment 3 title";

                default:
                    return null;
            }
        }

        // Returns total number of pages 
        @Override
        public int getCount() {
            return 3;
        }

    }
}
