    @Override
    public int getSpanSize(int position) {
        if (position &gt; 3)
            return 1;
        else
            return 2;
    }
});

GridLayoutManager layoutManager = new GridLayoutManager(this, 4);

layoutManager.setSpanSizeLookup(new GridLayoutManager.SpanSizeLookup() {

@Override

public int getSpanSize(int position) {

if (position > 3)

return 1;

else
