Migrate from Quick SQLite

react-native-quick-sqlite was renamed for version 9. The replacement package is react-native-nitro-sqlite, which requires react-native-nitro-modules. Update both the native dependency and your imports, then rebuild the app.

npm uninstall react-native-quick-sqlite
npm install react-native-nitro-sqlite react-native-nitro-modules
npx pod-install

The recommended 9.x API is the connection returned by open(). It binds the database name once, so query calls on that connection no longer pass the name each time:

import { open } from 'react-native-nitro-sqlite'

const db = open({ name: 'app.sqlite' })
const { results } = await db.executeAsync('SELECT id, name FROM people')
db.close()

Review every call site rather than applying a package-name substitution alone. In particular, check how you handle query results, queued async work, transactions, and close/delete timing. The generated API reference describes the current signatures, and sync and async explains connection ordering.

If you have an existing on-device database, keep its filename and verify its actual storage path before upgrading. Nitro SQLite opens files under its platform database root and can create a new empty file when no file is present there. The package rename alone does not prove that every older installation stored files in the same directory. Plan and test a file copy if your previous app version used another location.
