SharedPreferences in Android
As far as I know, SharedPreferences allow us to store some simple data in a named area in our phone. Introduction to the uses of SharedPreferences is very clear at Android SDK website. I just copied here(I divided the contents into four parts):
Introduction
The SharedPreferences
class
provides a general framework that allows you to save and retrieve persistent
key-value pairs of primitive data types. You can use SharedPreferences
to
save any primitive data: booleans, floats, ints, longs, and strings. This data
will persist across user sessions (even if your application is
killed).
Get SharedPreferences object
To get a SharedPreferences
object
for your application, use one of two methods:
getSharedPreferences()
- Use this if you need multiple preferences files identified by name, which you specify with the first parameter.getPreferences()
- Use this if you need only one preferences file for your Activity. Because this will be the only preferences file for your Activity, you don‘t supply a name.
Write the values
To write values:
- Call
edit()
to get aSharedPreferences.Editor
. - Add values with methods such as
putBoolean()
andputString()
. - Commit the new values with
commit()
Read the values
To read values, use SharedPreferences
methods
such as getBoolean()
and getString()
.

Now let‘s get into example time:
First, take a look at AndroidManifest.xml file to get to know it.

<!-- part of AndroidManifest.xml --> <application android:allowBackup= "true" android:icon= "@drawable/ic_launcher" android:label= "@string/app_name" android:theme= "@style/AppTheme"
> <activity android:name= "com.example.sharedpreferences.MainActivity" android:label= "@string/app_name"
> <intent-filter> <action android:name= "android.intent.action.MAIN"
/> <category android:name= "android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"
/> </intent-filter> </activity> <activity android:name= "com.example.sharedpreferences.Display" android:label= "Display"
> </activity> </application> |
Two Activities exist in this example,
MainActivity.java which uses activity_main.xml as the content view;
Display.java which uses main.xml as the content view:

<span style= "color: rgb(153, 204, 0);" ><strong> //Display.java</strong></span> public class Display extends
Activity { private
static final String MY_PREF= "firstpreferencefile" ; private
TextView tv1; private
TextView tv2; @Override protected
void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub super .onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); SharedPreferences sp=getSharedPreferences(MY_PREF, 0 ); tv1=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView1); tv2=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView2); tv1.setText(sp.getString( "name" , "song" )); } } |
We set up two values and store them in SharedPreferences object. These two values can be changed in MainActivity.java, and would be displayed in main.java.
