Question

I have a string I want to store in my SharedPreferences. Is there some kind of setString I could do to accomplish this?

Answer 1

You mean something like this?

SharedPreferences sharedPreferences = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sharedPreferences.edit();
editor.putString("username", "myUsername");
editor.commit();

You can make changes in the SharedPreferences, and commit the changes after you are done.
