Question

I have a text field within my app.

When a user inputs text I need a way to “remember” the value in the text field so that it can be recalled if the user quits the app and restarts it later.

Please can you point me in the right direction?

Answer 1

You can use NSUserDefaults to store/retrieve your textfield data.

//To store
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] setValue:@"Hello World" forKey:@"anyKey"];
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] synchronize];


//To retrieve
yourTextField.text = [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] valueForKey:@"anyKey"];
