WordPress Api + Android

I have a blog which is written in WordPress but not hosted on Wordpress.com, and I would like to develop an Android app to interact with this blog via the Wordpress REST Api. I searched in the Wordpress developper documentation and it seems that you can interact with this API only through Wordpress.com.

I have also made some Google searches and I found that many plugins provide this functionality but I don't know which one to use.

My Android app will interact with this blog. It will get all the blog posts, comment, post comments. If the user is an admin, he can create new posts. Note that I could simply create an RSS feed and everything would be alright but I want to take advantage of the Wordpress API.

What are the best solutions to achieve this?

As I understand - to get required functions you need WordPress REST API (Version 2) and one of plugins for authentication: Basic-Auth of OAuth1 WP-API on GitHub For more details please see official documentation on v2.wp-api.org

Is there a reason to develop this app yourself? Because if there's none, you should check the official app by Wordpress in the Google Play. I use it for some self hosted blogs and it's very helpful.

One Doubt, if its API Means you can Use JSON or XML for Android

First Check for JSON

Check This

other wise use that API and Create a Custom RestFul web services which Reads Data form that API,.. Automatically.

Better to Use API for Fast Results..
