Using SQLite would be a nice feature for native Ionic 2 projects because it would allow more offline storage. There would need to be a fallback on local storage if the Ionic project was also being used as a progressive web app.

This library looks promising: https://github.com/litehelpers/Cordova-sqlite-storage

Anyone interested is welcome to contribute to this feature.

Oh we have the same problem right now.. Maybe we creating an AngularOffline Wrapper with SQLite . @aboessa have you already began on an angularFire2Offline Wrapper with SQLite?

With the usage of localForage doesn't it only use localStorage as a fallback? From my understanding it will first try for IndexDB, then WebSQL, then default to localStorage. According to the cordova storage docs the first two should cover most install types..

You could always use custom drivers too

@DennisSmolek you're totally right, it does use localStorage as a fallback. I like the custom drivers option! Perhaps using the Cordova SQLite Driver when AngularFire2 Offline is being used with Cordova would be a nice option to avoid the browser storage limits.

You could simply use Ionic's storage module? Works both in browsers and on devices. Would require very little effort to implement.

@larssn actually ionic-storage modules uses localforage as angularfire2-offline and it is possible to configure the backend having same options, just ionic-storage includes Cordova SQLite integration.
