Greetings,
I'm new to app development and I need your help. I'm developing an app, not a web app but and Android mobile app that will store user details including their pictures.
I earlier tried storing the images in a file server and the image path in my MySQL database. But when retrieving it, to place in in the imageview, it is very slow since it will have to first download the image from the file server.
I have not tried the base64 option since I don't know how to pass it as a parameter to my php script and I don't know whether it will solve my problem i.e. the slowness in retrieving the image.
Thank you.
