Save user text input in text input

Questions about Thunkable

Hello!

I was hoping if anyone out here on the Thunkable community could help me out with my app.

I’m not sure how to save the user text input so when the user comes back on the screen their text input is saved.

Please help!

Thanks,
Shella

Hello!

I think that your navigation on screens is made so that when you click the Back button, you do not go back to the previous screen, but create a new screen, which, of course, will not have what the user entered in the input field on the other screen.

There are several ways to solve this problem:

  1. Use the navigation component
  2. Save the entered data in the app variable and restore the entered data from this app variable in the input field on a new screen

Hello!

Thanks for the reply.
I think the second option would suit my app the best.

How do you do this though?

Thanks,
