Abstract: Android is an open source software assemble of an operating system, middleware and key applications for mobile devices introduced by Google capable of running multiple application programs. It is a complete operating environment based upon the Linux V2.6 kernel. Initially, the deployment target for Android was the mobile-phone arena such as smart phones and low-cost flip-phone devices. Android platform is produced to make new and innovative mobile application program for the developers to make full use of all functions connected to handset internet. As a complete mobile platform, Android provides universal set of powerful Operation System, Comprehensive Library Set, abundant Multimedia User Interface and Phone Application. The data storage burden is eased because the Android platform includes the popular open source SQLite database. SQLite is a software library that implements a SQL engine. It has been used with great success as on-disk file format: allows the developer to handle data in a simple way, but also have the use of database features (such as undo, redo, etc.). In embedded device environment, in which there is low-concurrency and there are little or medium size datasets, SQLite is the right choice. Purposed system gives the Databases created will be accessible by name to any class not only in the application, but also outside the application
