How to prevent uninstalling an Android application during deployment using Xamarin Studio?

Each time I deploy a new version of an Android application with Xamarin Studio, the application is first uninstalled and then installed again. This causes some problems for me because I use XPrivacy on my devices.

I wonder if there is a way to simply deploy the new version without first deleting them (for example, when deploying using Android Studio or Eclipse)?

When creating and deploying applications on your device, by default, Xamarin will delete all existing data / application caching. This is not always ideal as it dumps your data as if it were fresh.

To save the data, you need to update the parameter:

  • In Xamarin Studio, select "Tools"> "Options"> "Projects"> "Android ...". Check "Save data / cache between application deployments"

  • In Visual Studio, select "Tools"> "Options"> "Xamarin"> "Android Settings" ... Check "Save data / cache between application deployments"

After that, all the general settings or data files created in the local folder of the application will remain.
