Put that file in assets.

For project created in Android Studio project you need to create assets folder under the main folder.

Read that file as:

public String loadJSONFromAsset(Context context) {         String json = null;         try {             InputStream is = context.getAssets().open("file_name.json");              int size = is.available();              byte[] buffer = new byte[size];              is.read(buffer);              is.close();              json = new String(buffer, "UTF-8");           } catch (IOException ex) {             ex.printStackTrace();             return null;         }         return json;      } 

and then you can simply read this string return by this function as

JSONObject obj = new JSONObject(json_return_by_the_function);
