How do you do the login process? Is it just inside the app or you use an external service?

on clicking the app it will display the home page. From there log in option..

So I assume that you are not using a a web service to log in. It's just a login screen in your app.

Then accept the password, validate it and in a TinyDB save the username and a tag named "status" with "logged in" value.

The next time the app is opened, check the TinyDB first. If the tag "status" says "logged in", don't make the user login.

If the user log out, then delete the user tag and set the tag "status" to "logged out".

Is that what you need?

no friend...ok let me be more specific. If am using facebook app it will redirect me to login page where i will enter my log in details, then it ask for saving username and password. Like that i want.

Well, using what I explained before, just add a checkbox to save the info typed in the login screen. If the checkbox is checked, save the login info (username and password entered) in a TinyDB.

Next time, when the app starts, check if there's any user info saved in the TinyDB. If there is, populate the username textbox and the password textbox with what you have saved.

Then let the user press the login button or change the login info at will.

But I'm still not sure if I understand your question.
