Disk-based caching for this use-case is the responsibility of the HTTP client. If you use OkHttp and install a disk cache it will store images for offline use in accordance to their cache headers. This is completely outside of Picasso's control–Picasso has no disk cache, only the HTTP client.

Yes i understood.

Before i was using lazy loading images refering the below link: http://androidexample.com/Download_Images_From_Web_And_Lazy_Load_In_ListView_-_Android_Example/index.php?view=article_discription&aid=112&aaid=134

It was helpful for caching the images also. but i was slow. Then i found your library which i felt is pretty much faster and maintain quality of images after downloading. Still i believe i would stick with this library(picasso) if caching feature was there.

We implement memory caching for all source from which images are loaded. Whether that source loads the image or persists it locally on disk is completely transparent to Picasso and we are not going to start being in the business of disk caching.
