@rakzat: It depends on how your apps works. If you want to make your apps workable offline then you have to use the database in your application. Because using a web service always requires an Internet connection so that you can query data from your server. Remember to query the data asynchronously from database so that it won't freeze your app. For example like this article Android – Sqlite database with ContentProvider and LoaderManager | HintDesk , it uses combination of contentprovider and loadermanager to make query to database.
