SharedPreferences

The SharedPreferences class gives a general system that permits you to spare and recover determined key-esteem sets of primitive information sorts. You can utilize SharedPreferences to spare any primitive information: booleans, coasts, ints, yearns, and strings. This information will continue crosswise over client sessions (regardless of the possibility that your application is executed).

There are two methods of SharedPreferences.

1) get SharedPreferences()
2)get Preferences()

 Example Code for  SharedPreferences.
