How to send image from one activity to another in android?

Question

I am having a imageView in one class and on clicking the imageView a dialog box appear which has two option to take a image from camera or open the image gallery of device.

Answer 1

My preferred way (and I think the most straight-forward way) is to use an own Application instance in the app, to store variables that are common to more than 1 activity.

Create a class, let's call it MainApplication that extends android.app.Application and declare it in the manifest:

Then you get an instance of the application object in the Activity like this:

MainApplication application = ((MainApplication)getApplication());

Inside this application object you can store any app-level data and use it as usual:

application.setImage(...);

application.getImage();
