I am trying to get multiple input texts to show up on a different screen. I tried storing it as a variable but how do I make it show up on a different screen and will this work for multiple inputs or do I need to make more variables?

Hi ofeliagonzalezuhlyhg, welcome to Thunkable! 🎉

Be sure to check out [How to ask Great Questions v2.0](https://community.thunkable.com/t/how-to-ask-great-questions-v2-0/2689983/1), the [Community Guidelines](https://community.thunkable.com/t/community-guidelines/78/8), and our [Getting Started Guide](https://docs.thunkable.com/getting-started/get-started) to make the best of your Thunkable Community experience!

Are you wanting the text entered on the text input to be visible on different screens? Variables are the way to do this generally if you are only using a few of them. If you’re going to start having many inputs and wanting to collect that information, a data source may be a better option. You can see more information about that, including tutorials, in our docs.

> **[Data Sources | Thunkable Docs](https://docs.thunkable.com/getting-started/data-sources)**
>
> Connecting your project to a data source allows you to work with the information that you have stored in Airtable, Google Sheets, Webflow or a local table.

If you’re going to stick with variables, you can have whatever text is inputted into the text input saved as a variable. When you want to retrieve that data, you can use a label and set its text to the variable you collected earlier.
