How can I save data from an EditText component so it shows up when the app is reopened?

I am using Android Studio and programming in Kotlin. I haven't been able to find a way to save the data entered by the user so it appears when they reopen the app. Thank you ahead of time!

You have to store your data in shared preference when any click event listen or on edittext textwatcher you can set your character in preference but best way is on any click event save data on preference and when activity open set data from preference on edittext.

Store it in Shared Preferences
SharedPreferences pref = getApplicationContext().getSharedPreferences("MyPref", 0); // 0 - for private mode
use this save the value..
Editor editor = sharedpreferences.edit();
editor.putString("key_name", "value"); //here give name and value to save
editor.commit();
use this to get the value.
String edittextvalue = pref.getString("key_name", null); //put edittextvalue where ever you what to show the value.
use this step to remove or clear the value
editor.remove("name");
editor.commit();

How to check if clear cache was done by user in android?

The app I am developing should know if the user/android* has cleared cache or clear data , so that I logout the user. How to do this? How to find out if user has cleared cache?
Can the android OS clear the cache of an app by itself (without human intervention)?

Use SharedPreference to store value in Application cache
SharedPreference prefs = getSharedPreferences("UserInfo", 0);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = prefs.edit();
editor.putString("username", username);
editor.putString("password", password);
editor.commit();
when App started Retrieve data from SharedPreference
SharedPreference prefs = getSharedPreferences("UserInfo", 0);
String username = prefs.getString("username","");
String password = prefs.getString("password","");
if cache is cleared SharedPreference also cleared.so you have to make a condition like if username and password empty means not enter Application.

android cordova sharedpreference deleting during force close

We are facing an issue with android SharedPreferences in our application. Our application is a cordova application. We are storing few data in the SharedPreferences. For example, storing userid, last visited page html contents, few json values.
Following are code samples for managing sharedpreferences (get/set/remove).
//get
SharedPreferences sharedPrefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(cordova.getActivity());
Object obj = sharedPrefs.getAll().get(key);
//remove
SharedPreferences sharedPrefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(cordova.getActivity());
if (sharedPrefs.contains(key)) {
Editor editor = sharedPrefs.edit();
editor.remove(key);
}
//store
SharedPreferences sharedPrefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(cordova.getActivity());
Editor editor = sharedPrefs.edit();
editor.putString(key, value);
editor.commit();
The storing retrieving deleting everything working fine. The problem we are facing is, the data is not persisting in a consistent manner.
For example, user opens the app and then he force close the app, again takes the app. All data in the sharedpreference is persists. But when he force close 2nd time and come back to the app once again, then the data from the sharedpreference is deleted. I could not find any log in the logcat also. Any help will be much appreciated.

Android save EditText text

I have a school planer app and I want to save the classes that are written in an EditText object. The problem is, the EditTexts are empty when I close the app and then open it again, and even when I press back. This may be a noob question, but I'm a beginner and I need help. Please answer quickly...

for saving edittext text you need to store the text into storage.
android support storage like
Database
Shared Preferences
For your problem you need to store your Edittext text into the storage when you change value.
And when you open it again you need to retrieve from the storage.
For you best option will be shared preferences. For more Go with This Example . This will make you understand save and retrieve shared preferences.
Short Example
Store Data
SharedPreferences pref = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(getBaseContext());
editor = pref.edit();
editor.putString("first_edittext", "value");
editor.commit();
Retrieve Data
SharedPreferences pref = PreferenceManager
.getDefaultSharedPreferences(getBaseContext());
pref.getString("first_edittext", "");

First time open my app, request data and save them

I am making an application.
I want the first time the user opens my application, display an initial screen for entering the Name, Email and Phone Number,
Then, store the input data in the memory of the mobile phone.
I want this screen appears only the first time the user opens the application, because in my application always the same Name, Email and Phone will be used.
How I can do it?

For only first time view either you can either use shared preference or database.
Once user enter the values store all the values in shared preference and set one flag true in shared preference, when again next time user open the application check the flag if it is true then move to next screen either open the screen for entering name, email and phone number
Setting value in shared preference
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = getSharedPreferences(MY_PREFS_NAME, MODE_PRIVATE).edit();
editor.putString("name", "test");
editor.putInt("id", 12);
editor.commit();
Retrieve from Shared Preference
SharedPreferences prefs = getSharedPreferences(MY_PREFS_NAME, MODE_PRIVATE);
String name = prefs.getString("name", "No name");//"No name" is the default value.
int idName = prefs.getInt("idName", 0); //0 is the default value.
