Android Passing data to intents

Question

I have three activities in my android application, and i am trying to get user input data from the first activity and pass it to the third activity while at the same time I launch the second activity which also gets the user input data and will also pass the data to the third activity. any ideas on how i should go about this?

3 activities.....activity 1 takes data to 3rd activity when user clicks button and launches activity 2 sametime ... — Mogomotsi Otsile, Sep 16 '16 at 10:08
And why would you want to do that? Activity 1 is A, Activity 2 is B, 3 is C. Pass the parameter to B. When you go to C, get the retrieved parameter and pass it to C...? — Ali Bdeir, Sep 16 '16 at 10:24
You can't pass data to some 3rd Activity, then start a 2nd activity and just expect that data to be sitting in the 3rd Activity whenever you want to use it — OneCricketeer, Sep 16 '16 at 11:14

The Way of passing data from Intent is shown below, try passing data same way from ActivityOne -> ActvityTwo -> ActivityThree.

Intent intent = new Intent(ActivityOne.this, ActivityTwo.class);
intent.putExtra("some_key_from_one", some_value_from_one);
startActivity(intent);

Then in the new Activity, retrieve those values:

Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
if (extras != null) {
    String value = extras.getString("some_key_from_one");
    //The key argument here must match that used in the other activity
}
