    Hi,
    I'm looking at developing an app for a 4th year college project but have hit a snag.

    App will need to be logged into for use, but would be used in areas with sketchy coverage and may not be able to connect to a remote DB to authenticate.

    Is there a way to store this info locally inside the app?

    Thanks

    Have a look at SQLite, will do the job.

    Also have a look at Core Data along with AFIncrementalStore.

    Useful Libs/Developer tools etc:

    Coredata (SQLlite wrapper) as mentioned
    Reachability api to determine if offline/online-3g or wifi etc
    RESTKIT for making RESTful webservices interaction so much easier (and also nice integration with Coredata)
    Base app on mac app store (or free sqlitemanager firefox addon) to quickly view app sqlite db

    FMDB is nice and straight forward and pretty decent!
