Android Question Is SQLCipher as reliable as non-encrypted SQLite database

[anglia]

I've no reason to doubt the reliability of SQLCipher. I haven't used it, but I plan to.

Can anyone comment on whether an SQLCipher database is more likely to experience problems (data corruption etc) than a non-encrypted SQLite database.


Thanks

I use SQLCipher in several applications and did not notice any problems ...

You are adding an additional dependency so there is some "risk". Mainly with compatibility with future versions.

With that said, it is a mature SDK which is used by many developers (not just B4X of course) so the risk is low.

Thanks everyone for your comments.
They reassured me.
