下面是如何对Swift做同样的事情;

var valueToSave = "someValue"
NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults().setObject(valueToSave, forKey: "preferenceName")

以后把它拿回来;

if let savedValue = NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults().stringForKey("preferenceName") {
    // Do something with savedValue
}

在Swift 3.0中

var valueToSave = "someValue"
UserDefaults.standard.set(valueToSave, forKey: "preferenceName")

if let savedValue = UserDefaults.standard.string(forKey: "preferenceName") {

}

NSUserDefaults *prefs = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];

// saving an NSString
[prefs setObject:@"TextToSave" forKey:@"keyToLookupString"];

// saving an NSInteger
[prefs setInteger:42 forKey:@"integerKey"];

// saving a Double
[prefs setDouble:3.1415 forKey:@"doubleKey"];

// saving a Float
[prefs setFloat:1.2345678 forKey:@"floatKey"];

// This is suggested to synch prefs, but is not needed (I didn't put it in my tut)
[prefs synchronize];

检索

NSUserDefaults *prefs = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];

// getting an NSString
NSString *myString = [prefs stringForKey:@"keyToLookupString"];

// getting an NSInteger
NSInteger myInt = [prefs integerForKey:@"integerKey"];

// getting an Float
float myFloat = [prefs floatForKey:@"floatKey"];

Swift 3更新

func setObject(value:AnyObject ,key:String)
{
    let pref = UserDefaults.standard
    pref.set(value, forKey: key)
    pref.synchronize()
}

func getObject(key:String) -> AnyObject
{
    let pref = UserDefaults.standard
    return pref.object(forKey: key)! as AnyObject
}

就像这样:

NSUserDefaults *prefs = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];

// saving an NSString
[prefs setObject:@"TextToSave" forKey:@"keyToLookupString"];

然后检索:

NSUserDefaults *prefs = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];

// getting an NSString
NSString *myString = [prefs stringForKey:@"keyToLookupString"];

你应该看看苹果的NSUserDefaults类参考，也可以看看这个教程:iPhone编程教程-使用NSUserDefaults保存/检索数据

更准确地说

-(void)saveToUserDefaults:(NSString*)myString
{
    NSUserDefaults *standardUserDefaults = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];

    if (standardUserDefaults) {
        [standardUserDefaults setObject:myString forKey:@"timestamps"];
        [standardUserDefaults synchronize];
    }
}

一个好的做法是使用一个常量作为键，以避免在不存储和读取相同键的情况下出现错误

NSString* const TIME_STAMPS_KEY = @"TIME_STAMPS_KEY";
