Preserve user preferences upon app update

I am using the Preference class for storing user settings in my app.

How can I ensure these settings are preserved upon issuing app updates?

On Update, the only thing that gets replaced is the apk. Be sure hat your package Name dos not change, this will probably be seen as a new App by android

The shared preferences should not get deleted on app updates, they are only deleted if you uninstall and reinstall the app.
