You can store boolean values on shared preferences. Here's an example.

SharedPreferences myPrefs;
SharedPreferences.Editor myPrefsPrefsEditor;
static final String MY_SHARED_PREF = "name_of_your_shared_pref";

Initialize your shared preferences

myPrefs = this.getSharedPreferences(MY_SHARED_PREF, Context.MODE_PRIVATE);

Store your values using the following.

myPrefsPrefsEditor = myPrefs.edit();
myPrefsPrefsEditor.putBoolean(key, value);
myPrefsPrefsEditor.commit();

key = use to find the value from shared pref

value = the value you want to store

This is how your read your values

myPrefs.getBoolean(key, defaultValue);

key = the key of the value you want to get

defaultValue = the default value when there's no value for the given key.

Hope this helps.
