Answer from AI

The main types of storage systems in Android:

  1. Shared Preferences — for storing simple key-value pairs (settings, flags).
  2. File system — storing files in internal or external storage.
  3. SQLite database — built-in relational database for structured data.
  4. Room Persistence Library — an abstraction over SQLite with a convenient API and support for LiveData.
  5. Content Providers — mechanism for data sharing between apps.

Each type is suitable for different tasks: settings — Shared Preferences, large structured data — SQLite/Room, files — file system.
