caching of Google Places API results

Question

I\'m building a mobile app that lists posts, each post has a place attached to it.

I want the list to be able to show distance from the user\'s location. without caching

Answer 1

Google's page on Places states that Caching of the Places ID is allowed.

The terms in 10.5.d state that you may store limited amounts of content for no more than 30 calendar days for performance reasons. Since this is what you are trying to do, then I would expect that you are ok to store the ID, location and name.

As you start to cache more information then you'll breach the terms of the API. It's not too clear what these are but I think as long as you are being reasonable then you'll be OK.
