I am working on a library app and have books stored as .sqlite files. Each book\'s sqlite database file is about 10MB in size. I first tried to put it in assets folder and then
Have the app download the database from a web server to the sdcard - this saves the waste of storing both a compressed version in the .apk and an uncompressed version outside. And it's not really any more insecure as an .apk is just a zip file anyone who really wants to can read.
