this is just for personal knowledge, I will really appreciate your comments. I wanna build an Android/iOS app in phonegap, basically it’s a business listing app, each business listing will have this data:

  • Name
  • Picture
  • Address
  • Phone
  • Map Location [latitud,longitude] so I can use a Map API.

I want to have all the directory listings inside the app, so you can use it “offline” not the maps of course, for using the maps you must be online.

So my questions are:

  • Suggestions about how saving the data, which topics do you recommend me to read
  • Is there any way to buy/download maps of countries and put them on my app, so the user don’t need to be online to check where is located the business listing.
  • Do you think it’s a good idea to develop this idea with phonegap? or do you recommend another methods/frameworks ?

I hope it’s clear, sorry for my broken english! 🙂

    1. You can use Sqlite Database to store the data. Please read the document provided in the link :http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.7.0/cordova_storage_storage.md.html#Storage.
    2. You can use Google Maps API during offline. But during online, you can use the PhoneGapAPI provided in the link :http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.7.0/cordova_geolocation_geolocation.md.html#Geolocation
    3. Yes, you can use phonegap as it is the bestway for your Application. For more information please go through the PhoneGap Documentation link:http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.7.0/index.html
