Question

I\'ve already made a code for capturing an image using device built-in camera and archiving it in the database server. For each time I captures an image and views it, it wil

Ok now i think i understand your problem. To understand my code check this:

what is sharedPreferences?

Show Image View from file path in android?

Create ImageViews dynamically inside a loop

Last Edit: add commit() solve the problem

What we are going to try is save the file paths in ArrayList and save this array in a SharedPreferences:

layout_example.xml <-- create a Layout on your xml to add imageViews inside

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
    android:padding="5dp">


    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:id="@+id/myLinearLayout"></LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

UploadActivity.java

     Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_upload);//add the LinearLayout of the layout_example.xml

    txtPercentage = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txtPercentage);
    btnUpload = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnUpload);
    layout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.ly1);
    progressBar = (ProgressBar) findViewById(R.id.progressBar);
    imgPreview = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imgPreview);

    addImageView(layout);

    // Changing action bar background color
    getActionBar().setBackgroundDrawable(
            new ColorDrawable(Color.parseColor(getResources().getString(
                    R.color.action_bar))));

    // Receiving the data from previous activity
    Intent i = getIntent();

    // image or video path that is captured in previous activity
    filePath = i.getStringExtra("filePath");

   LinearLayour ly_myLayout = (LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.myLinearLayout);
   ArrayList<String> yourFilePaths = new ArrayList<>();//Create ArrayList

    //first you have to check if you've saved filepaths
    SharedPreferences prefs = getSharedPreferences("SavedFilePaths",   Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
    String myJSONArrayString = prefs.getString("SavedFilePathsJSONArray", "");
    if(!myJSONArrayString.isEmpty()){
    JSONArray jsonArray = new JSONArray(myJSONArrayString);
      for (int i=0;i<jsonArray.length();i++){ 
        yourFilePaths.add(jsonArray.get(i).toString());
       } 
    }
    //add the last photo you've taken
     yourFilePaths.add(filePath);

    //Save the new ArrayList in SharedPreferences:
     JSONArray mJSONArray = new JSONArray(yourFilePaths);
     SharedPreferences.Editor editor = prefs.edit();
     editor.putString("SavedFilePathsJSONArray",mJSONArray.toString()).commit(); // add commit

    //Show images by filePaths             
    File imgFile;
      for (int i = 0; i < yourFilePaths.size(); ++i) {
        imgFile = new  File(yourFilePaths.get(i));
        if(imgFile.exists()){

        Bitmap myBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imgFile.getAbsolutePath());

        ImageView myImage = new ImageView(this);

        myImage.setImageBitmap(myBitmap);// In this step you've to create dynamic imageViews to see more than one picture

        ly_myLayout.addView(myImage);//Then add your dynamic imageviews to your layout

        }
      }

    btnUpload.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            // uploading the file to server
            new UploadFileToServer().execute();
        }
    });

}

/**
 * Displaying captured image/video on the screen
 * */
private void previewMedia(boolean isImage) {
    // Checking whether captured media is image or video
    if (isImage) {
        imgPreview.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        vidPreview.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        // bimatp factory
        BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();

        // down sizing image as it throws OutOfMemory Exception for larger
        // images
        options.inSampleSize = 8;

        final Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filePath, options);

        imgPreview.setImageBitmap(bitmap);

    } 
}

    private void addImageView(LinearLayout layout) {
    i = 0;
    ImageView imageView = new ImageView(this);
    imageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.ic_launcher);
    imageView.setId(i);
    layout.addView(imageView);
    imageView.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            Intent intent = new Intent(UploadActivity.this,
                    MainActivity.class);
            startActivity(intent);
        }
    });
}
