Can anybody tell me exact difference between Android Geocoder and Android Google Geocoder API
As far I know, Android Geocoder is platform in-built class and gives less result compare to APIs and also less reliable.
Is there any hard limit/quota for in-built Geocoder class ?

The Geocoding API is a service that provides geocoding and reverse geocoding of addresses. This service is also available as part of the client-side Google Maps JavaScript API, or for server-side use with the Java Client, Python Client, Go Client and Node. js Client for Google Maps Services.
Geocoding and reverse geocoding APIs from SDK for Android allow application developers to offer search functionality for requesting location information and structured addresses.
The Geocoding API uses a pay-as-you-go pricing model. Geocoding API requests generate calls to one of two SKUs depending on the type of request: basic or advanced. Along with the overall Google Terms of Use, there are usage limits specific to the Geocoding API.
Android Geocoder is built in class and has no quota limits.
Geocoding API is a http request and has 2500 QPD quota. Geocoding seem to be more reliable.
