Popup menu with recyclerView

put this code inside your ViewHolder

note: In this code I am using btnExpand click-event, for whole recyclerview click event you can set listener to itemView object.

public class MyViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder{
        CardView cv;
        TextView recordName, visibleFile, date, time;
        Button btnIn, btnExpand;

        public MyViewHolder(final View itemView) {
            super(itemView);

            cv = (CardView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.cardview);
            recordName = (TextView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.tv_record);
            visibleFile = (TextView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.visible_file);
            date = (TextView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.date);
            time = (TextView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.time);
            btnIn = (Button)itemView.findViewById(R.id.btn_in_out);

            btnExpand = (Button) itemView.findViewById(R.id.btn_expand);

            btnExpand.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) {
                    PopupMenu popup = new PopupMenu(btnExpand.getContext(), itemView);

                    popup.setOnMenuItemClickListener(new PopupMenu.OnMenuItemClickListener() {
                        @Override
                        public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {
                            switch (item.getItemId()) {
                                case R.id.action_delete:
                                    moveFile(recordName.getText().toString(), getAdapterPosition());
                                    return true;
                                case R.id.action_play:
                                    String valueOfPath = recordName.getText().toString();
                                    Intent intent = new Intent();
                                    intent.setAction(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
                                    File file = new File(valueOfPath);
                                    intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(file), "audio/*");
                                    context.startActivity(intent);
                                    return true;
                                case R.id.action_share:
                                    String valueOfPath = recordName.getText().toString();
                                    File filee = new File(valueOfPath);
                                    try {
                                        Intent sendIntent = new Intent();
                                        sendIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
                                        sendIntent.setType("audio/*");
                                        sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.fromFile(filee));
                                        context.startActivity(sendIntent);
                                    } catch (NoSuchMethodError | IllegalArgumentException | NullPointerException e) {
                                        e.printStackTrace();
                                    } catch (Exception e) {
                                        e.printStackTrace();
                                    }
                                    return true;
                                default:
                                    return false;
                            }
                        }
                    });
                    // here you can inflate your menu
                    popup.inflate(R.menu.my_menu_item);
                    popup.setGravity(Gravity.RIGHT);

                    // if you want icon with menu items then write this try-catch block.
                    try {
                        Field mFieldPopup=popup.getClass().getDeclaredField("mPopup");
                        mFieldPopup.setAccessible(true);
                        MenuPopupHelper mPopup = (MenuPopupHelper) mFieldPopup.get(popup);
                        mPopup.setForceShowIcon(true);
                    } catch (Exception e) {

                    }
                    popup.show();
                }
            });

        }
    }

alternative way to show icons in menu

try {
    Field[] fields = popup.getClass().getDeclaredFields();
    for (Field field : fields) {
        if ("mPopup".equals(field.getName())) {
            field.setAccessible(true);
            Object menuPopupHelper = field.get(popup);
            Class<?> classPopupHelper = Class.forName(menuPopupHelper
                .getClass().getName());
            Method setForceIcons = classPopupHelper.getMethod(
                "setForceShowIcon", boolean.class);
            setForceIcons.invoke(menuPopupHelper, true);
            break;
        }
    }
} catch (Exception e) {

}
