Firebase works even if your app temporarily loses its network connection. In addition, Firebase also provides tools for persisting data locally, managing presence, and handling latency.

You can enable disk persistence with just one line of code.

FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().setPersistenceEnabled(true);

Firebase also provide below functionality:-

  • Store Fresh Data

    like :-

    DatabaseReference scoresRef =FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("scores");
scoresRef.keepSynced(true);

  • Querying Data Offline

  • Handling Transactions Offline

The Firebase SDKs for Cloud Storage don't natively support offline access. If you use a library such as Glide for Android, you may have some offline disk cache support, but that not part of the core Android SDK for Cloud Storage.
