Solution 1:

If you're not storing an over abundance of data you can use Gson to convert a Java object to a Json string and store the string in your app preferences. Gson has a toJson(obj) method and visa-vis.

String json = appSharedPrefs.getString("someName","");    
return gson.fromJson(json, YourModel.class);

To get data from your object into app preferences:

Stringjson= gson.toJson(obj);

Then prefsEditor.putString("someName", json).apply().
