Store values using Shared Preference

In Android , Shared preference can be used to store values in a key-value pair. We can store values in a private mode such that, it is not accessible to any other apps.

• Create the shared preference in private mode.
• Initialize the editor mode.
• Set values to your key.
• Finally commit your values.
• Get the saved values using the key.
• Set default value to return if key value doesn't exist.

To set values to Shared Preference:

SharedPreferences pref = getSharedPreferences("sample", 0); 

SharedPreferences.Editor editor = mVoice.edit();

editor.putString("key1", "value1");

editor.putString("key2", "value2");

editor.commit();

To get values from Shared Preference:




SharedPreferences pref = getSharedPreferences("sample", 0);

String start = pref .getString("key1", "Not set");
String stop = pref .getString("key2", "Not set");
