Using local storage on Android webview

Question

I am experimenting with Android code: I would like to store one value using HTML 5 local storage. For this exercise I\' using a page as simple as this one: http://www.w3s

Answer 1

It appears the empty string DatabasePath is the problem. I tried similar code and with an empty string path, the value does not persist after the app exits. If I define a specific database path, the value persists as expected.

Try:

webSettings.setDatabasePath("/data/data/"+this.getPackageName()+"/databases/");
