Apps 3rd party library issue

[Bee Torika]

Hi : )

If I use 3rd party library as

compile 'org.hogehoge.mo:radioro:1.1'

in build.gradle , internet connection is necessary , right ?
(because I didnt put jar library into a project directly)

And a project ( or app) download jar library from internet, and then, 'saved it' ????
So once, it is downloaded, no more downloads after this time right ?

I am afraid that, a app try to download jar file each time the app is launched..
because it will took a time and make a app performance worse.

I 'think' , a library is download just once at the first time, and a library file is saved in somewhere in a project, and app uses downloaded library repeatedly.

something wrong with my thinking, plz tell me....

Yes the library is downloaded only the first time your code is compiled. After that, no need to re-download it.

Once installed, the app doesn't need to download that library, because it will be included in the APK.
