Cannot parse String to JSONArray using Gson

Question

I have a mind-boggling problem. I have the following String:

[{"Time":0,"HR":0,"Steps":0,"Battery":0,"Screen wake":0,"Do-not-disturb":0,"Charger":0,"Notification":0},{"Time":0,"HR":0,"Steps":0,"Battery":0,"Screen wake":0,"Do-not-disturb":0,"Charger":0,"Notification":0}]

I am trying to convert this to JSONArray in order to add more elements like this:

        jsonArrayData = gson.fromJson(string, JSONArray.class);

This is throwing error

Expected BEGIN_OBJECT but was BEGIN_ARRAY at line 1 column 2 path $

I can get my head around what I do wrong ...

If you are using Gson, why are you trying to parse it into JSONArray from the org.json parser? Pick one JSON parser and use it. Create a Java class that models your HR data and have Gson parse your JSON into an ArrayList of that type. — CommonsWare

Well, it was as simple as

jsonArrayData = new JSONArray(string);
