angularjs - Ionic local storage vs using service

I am finding myself placing all my data from my api calls in the device local storage and I am not sure if it matters whether I put things in local storage vs putting them in a service. When should I use local storage from device vs using a Angularjs service?

You are a bit mingled up with concepts. When it comes to angularjs services, they persist data as long as the page is not refreshed, as soon as you refresh your page or close the browser tab, The data's gone.

Consider Angularjs services as mere variables that you declare, which are scoped to the lifetime of your browser tab. Hence, you can use it to store some temporary flags and values that aren't meant to be carried forward to next session.

Whereas, When it comes to localStorage, consider it as a database kind of stuff. Whatever you store in localStorage, is saved inside the browser, and will be available across multiple tabs, and sessions of your apps [Until and unless user clears browser data].

Since you're using Ionic and Cordova, you must use localStorage to save stuff such as user name and password, so that the user can use them the next time he opens your app. Take a note that, closing your app is equivalent to closing a browser tab.

Whereas, if you have certain data that keeps refreshing each time user visits your app, you can use services to store them, so that they are removed as soon as the app's closed.


Metaphorically, localStorage --> Secondary, non-volatile Storage, angularjs services --> Primary, volatile storage.
