What am I missing?

Since you're creating two different instances of SharedPreferences without explanation, and getting the value from "prefs", the default one, I would have to guess that you're *setting* it in "myPrefs", the one that points to the "settings" preference.

Also, what is the point of "prefsEditor" ?
