Question

I am developing Android application, which have json file in Assets folder. Now I want to update this file later from server, but it seems it is not possible to update files inside Assets folder at run time. So my question is which is the best location where I should put this json file initially and later it can be also updated from server. I also don’t want to update android code and ask user to update application from the market.

Answer 1

/data/data/your.package.name/ (this is local folder to your application) or sqlite. Next time there is a change your file can be directly downloaded to /data/data/your.package.name/ or sqlite DB.
