What are the best practices for where a cross-platform FireMonkey program should put INI files? Are INI files even the right approach?

For Android: in "shared storage"

For MacOS: in INI file

CCR.PrefsIniFile on GitHub by Chris Rolliston (he is on stackoverflow also: https://stackoverflow.com/users/2778930/chris-rolliston)

Just a small post to say the the native Preferences API wrappers for Android, iOS and OS X I published to Google Code a while back are now on GitHib:

Both the Android and Apple versions should also now compile in XE8.
