Hi all...new to the forums and have been using app inventor for a week.

I'm having fun so far, and it's a nice reprieve from the Android Studio course I am currently taking.

Question: How does one add simple fields that users can add info to that will be recalled later?

Say I have text fields that users can answer questions in. Upon hitting enter, I would like those answers to be saved and be able to be recalled later. How does one accomplish this app inventor?

If there is a tutorial that covers this, please let me know. I have done two or three already.

(Eventually, I want to be able to do this in a more sophisticated way with a database such as Firebase or Supabase. But I'm trying to get an minimally viable product going for this app idea I have).

Thanks in advance for any help.
