Persisting offline data

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 581

I've got an app which is likely to be used offline on an android tablet using the android app

I know how to save data which can be persisted until the app is back online.

 

However, I've been asked to look at what happens if a tablets battery runs out or the android app is switched off.


I was planning on using SaveData to save the data.

 

Will the data persist in memory at that point, or do I need to make alternative arrangements?

 

Thanks in advance.

    Hi @lee-martin ,

    SaveData writes to a file on the device, which would persist the same as any other file.
