You could retrieve the value by looping the parentView, something like this 

ArrayList getEditTextList()
{

    ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
    int size = parentLinearLayout.getChildCount()

    for (int i=0 ; i < size ; i++)
    {
      View view = parentLinearLayout.getChildAt(i);
      EditText text = view.findViewById(R.id.yourEditTextName);
      list.add(text.getText().toString());
    }
return list;
}

Later you can add the values to Shared preference either by converting Arraylist to Json String or Adding it one by one.
