About the Book

You have a good start on building your Android application, but now comes the time to store the data entered by your users on their device. It's an important part of any application; even a quick prototype needs a way to store data. What is the best way to do it?

Here is a quick guide to get you started with the tools available in the Android SDK, without having to learn yet another new framework or library. You'll learn how to :

  • Save simple data to flat files in the internal and external storage of the device,    
  • Save user preferences using the Preferences API,    
  • Save structured data in an SQLite database,    
  • Save images so you can refer to them in a SQLite database,    
  • Persist the state of an activity so users don't lose their input just because they rotated their device or took a phone call.

This guide also includes examples to help you implement all of those in your own Android applications. Purchase now and you can be up and running in a few minutes!
