Where to store data?

Question

Android

There is an application.
I write in SharedPreferences settings.
I reinstall the application (I write the code - I compile it on the phone) - the settings fly off.
Where to save the settings - so that not when reinstalling / updating - the data remains?

Answer 1

If you want to save data when reinstalling (uninstalling and reinstalling - and not when installing over) - then you need to store them outside the application. For example, a file in the general storage. Or on a remote server.
