Question

I have tried using the following code but i am getting errors. getSharedPreferences is undefined. Is there is other way to store string value in Intent services and access it inside an activity.

      SharedPreferences prefs = this.getSharedPreferences(
  "com.example.app", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);

Answer 1

try this :

SharedPreferences prefs = getApplicationContext().getSharedPreferences(
  "com.example.app", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);

instead of

SharedPreferences prefs = this.getSharedPreferences(
  "com.example.app", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
