How to save data in a user filled out form in android?

Question

My app can access a registration form via the android activity. My question is, how to save it to a text file after a user filled data to the form? I want to save in the text file the data inputted by the user, for instance:

Address: User address here City: User City Province: User Province here Zip: 4342343 Phone: 4534534534 What is your biggest regret in your life? None.

What type of form is this? And what do you mean with `via the android activity`? — greenapps, Jan 27 '15 at 09:40

Text files are not the best solution when it comes to persist data. You have plenty of choices, being the most common of all:

shared preferences
android sqlite database

Some usefull links tho:

You didn't provide any details behind what you want to acquire. But if you really need to use text files, check @ojonugwa ochalifu link
