.SQLITEDB File Extension

A SQLITEDB file is a database created using SQLite, a Relational Database Management System (RDBMS). App developers often create SQLITEDB files for use as embedded application databases. For example, the iOS Contacts app, installed on iPhones and iPads, uses SQLITEDB files to store users' contacts.

SQLite databases contain data stored in one or more tables. Applications often store data in and retrieve data from SQLite databases to show information to users. These embedded app databases sometimes use the .sqlitedb extension.

For example, the iOS Contacts app stores users' contacts in a file named AddressBook.sqlitedb. As another example, various tile-based mapping programs store map data in SQLITEDB files.

NOTE: SQLite databases also use the .SQLITE extension.

You can open a SQLITEDB file using SQLite (multiplatform) or SQLite Database Browser (multiplatform). Note that if your SQLITEDB file is encrypted, you may have to enter the password used to encrypt it. If you do not know the password, you likely will not be able to open the file.
