If you're struggling with shared preferences I'd recommend this tutorial - it covers everything you need to know about Shared Preferences with a practical example.

Having said that, I my opinion I think you'd be better off using an SQLite database. If you are interested in using a database this is a good read:

  • Option #1: Have two separate keys: top name and top value
  • Option #2: Store value in parseable format and include both user name and value like User/50
