I don't know if this is the correct area to post this question. Sorry if I placed it in the wrong section.

I am building a program for Mobile Phones that needs to save variables locally, I tried using shared objects, but Mobile phones do not have the directory structure necessary for shared objects.

I have spent several hours searching the internet for information on how to save vars in other ways, but it seems that the only other way is to have the app talk to an online database via php/java. which is not only un-necessary because the only person who would ever need to access the variable data is the individual user, but has several other disadvantages like: waaaay too much work. Also Mobile Phones requesting access to the web via Player7 at the user's request (I don't know if it's even possible), and if that hurdle can be overcome, having to store a bunch of user data that will be updated regularly (when any of the 14 variables change through user input) online with mysql or something else. Not to mention thousands of potential users who have to pay per MB of data through their (non)data plans.

Is there any way possible to save vars on a Mobile Device locally, or is this just a pipe dream?

Thanks in advance for any input.
