What is a content provider How is it implemented?

A content provider manages access to a central repository of data . You implement a provider as one or more classes in an Android application, along with elements in the manifest file. One of your classes implements a subclass ContentProvider , which is the interface between your provider and other applications.

Statement 1: A content provider behaves very much like a database — you can query it, edit its content, as well as add or delete content . different applications access it as needed. Statement 3: A content provider does not provide the facility to centralize content.
