In my iPhone app I am using an Sqlite database. I have a requirement to store the text in database. The text contains apostrophes.
For example:
Insert into tbl_insert values ('It is Steve's Shirt');
How to store this kind of statements in Sqlite database?

The short answer is to use two single quotes - '' - in order for an SQL database to store the value as ' .
To insert data into a table, you use the INSERT statement. SQLite provides various forms of the INSERT statements that allow you to insert a single row, multiple rows, and default values into a table. In addition, you can insert a row into a table using data provided by a SELECT statement.
This is something that I go through in SQL Server and MySQL as well. You should definitely use parameterised SQL queries
See this page for examples in many languages.
I strongly discourage the use of literal strings in the update statement. Use parameterized queries. There's no reason to compromise security
You can write a function which replaces each instance of character ' with ''
