Shared preferences in android studio not working

Question

I was making a login page which stores the login data of the user using shared preferences, but after closing the app when I open it again the log-in window should not come, but it is coming even after using shared preferences, so I have to log-in app every time I open it I tried to find error but couldn't, so anyone can please tell me where the code is going wrong.

            }


        }
    }

    override fun onPause() {
        super.onPause()
        finish()
    }
      fun savePreferences(){
        sharedPreferences.edit().putBoolean("is LoggedIn",true).apply()
    }


}

Answer 1

You have a typo in your property setting

sharedPreferences.edit().putBoolean("is LoggedIn",true).apply()

But when you get it:

val isLoggedIn = sharedPreferences.getBoolean("isLoggedIn",false)
