Android - Remember Me

Question

I am trying to login with PHP and MySQLi for Android. What I don’t understand is how to log in? I saw a simple tutorial in which someone used SQLite for safe information, but I don’t know if it is really safe. How to save user information so that users are logged in?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Use SharedPreferences in android

when your loggedin saves data using

 SharedPreferences pref = getApplicationContext().getSharedPreferences("MyPref", 0); // 0 - for private mode Editor editor = pref.edit(); //on the login store the login editor.putLong("key_name", "long value"); editor.commit(); 

retrieves key data

 pref.getString("key_name", ""); ^ default value if the user is not loggedin 

delete data upon logout

 editor.remove("name"); editor.commit();
