I have read their limits FAQ, they talk about many limits except limit of the whole database.
SQLite database files have a maximum size of about 140 TB. On a phone, the size of the storage (a few GB) will limit your database file size, while the memory size will limit how much data you can retrieve from a query. Furthermore, Android cursors have a limit of 1 MB for the results.
A SQLite database can have maximum 2147483646 pages. Hence the maximum number of tables in a schema cannot reach more than 2147483646. The maximum number of rows in a table is 264. The maximum number of columns is 32767 in a table.
Maximum Database Size 140 tb but it will depends on your device disk size.
(9) What is the maximum size of a VARCHAR in SQLite? SQLite does not enforce the length of a VARCHAR. You can declare a VARCHAR(10) and SQLite will be happy to store a 500-million character string there. And it will keep all 500-million characters intact.
This is fairly easy to deduce from the implementation limits page:
An SQLite database file is organized as pages. The size of each page is a power of 2 between 512 and SQLITE_MAX_PAGE_SIZE. The default value for SQLITE_MAX_PAGE_SIZE is 32768.
...
The SQLITE_MAX_PAGE_COUNT parameter, which is normally set to 1073741823, is the maximum number of pages allowed in a single database file. An attempt to insert new data that would cause the database file to grow larger than this will return SQLITE_FULL.
So we have 32768 * 1073741823, which is 35,184,372,056,064 (35 trillion bytes)!
You can modify SQLITE_MAX_PAGE_COUNT
or SQLITE_MAX_PAGE_SIZE
in the source, but this of course will require a custom build of SQLite for your application. As far as I'm aware, there's no way to set a limit programmatically other than at compile time (but I'd be happy to be proven wrong).
