Abstract
Embodiments are directed to a computer implemented method and system of proactively caching content for a mobile electronic device. The method includes determining the location of a mobile electronic device, predicting the location of the mobile electronic device, including a prediction of when the mobile electronic device will be in a location of low or no network connectivity. The data that will be retrieved while the mobile electronic device is not connected to the network is also predicted. Thereafter, the predicted data that will be retrieved is downloaded prior to losing network connectivity so that it can be accessed from memory while the mobile electronic device has low or no network connectivity. Other embodiments are also described.
