Use SharedPreferences to save data:

 SharedPreferences sharedPreferences = getSharedPreferences("MyData", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
 SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sharedPreferences.edit();
 //for save data
 editor.putString("yourDay", yourData);
 //for get data
 sharedPreferences.getString("yourDay", "yourDefaultData");

It is saved on SharePreference folder into your app data folder, and you can always access to it just using the same name when you instantiate your SharedPreference.

I got it. But can i make it automatically? For example with a calendar or something? – user3717742 Jan 02 '16 at 22:24
Do you want to do it periodically, where users don't have to open the applicacion? – Josbel Luna Jan 02 '16 at 22:34
Periodically because it have to show your step number every day every week and every month. – user3717742 Jan 02 '16 at 22:41

If you're looking to use a database to store the data locally (as in not through a web service) then start here: http://developer.android.com/training/basics/data-storage/databases.html
