Passing bundles through activities

I have a bundle that I want to pass through more than one activity.

Consider this example. I have activity1, activity2 and activity3. Activity1 goes to Activity2. Activity2 goes to Activity3. I want to get information from activity1 to activity3

My code would be

Intent intent = new Intent(v.getContext(), Activity2.class);
intent.putExtra(KEY, "Straight There");
startActivity(intent);

and then I would have to do this in Activity2

Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
if (extras != null) 
        text = extras.getString(KEY);
Intent intent = new Intent(v.getContext(), Activity3.class);
intent.putExtra(KEY, text);
startActivity(intent);

Is there anyway I can pass the whole bundle through the activity without having to parse the keys and rebundle?

Thanks in advance

I think you can use SharedPreferences to avoid passing data activity by activity,like this: in your first activity,save data by SharedPreferences:

SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME, 0);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = settings.edit();
editor.putString(KEY, "Straight There");

in your third activity,get data by SharedPreferences:

SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(PREFS_NAME, 0);
String result = settings.getString(KEY, null);

more info about SharedPreferences,see:Storage Options

you can use putExtras(Intent src) to pull all the extras out of one Intent and put them into another.

Intent intent = new Intent(v.getContext(), Activity3.class);
intent.putExtras(getIntent()); // get all the extras out of the current Activities Intent
startActivity(intent);
