Howdy All!
I am designing a multi-platform app (Android / IOS / Windows). The application will initially be a single user but some functionality will only be in the desktop application (Windows) because of component availability (Fast Report FMX).
After playing with SQLITE and IBTOGO, I have decided to use IBTOGO for mobile. Since I am a Rad Studio Architect user, I get an IBTOGO distribution license for mobile.
I just realized that IBLITE and IBTOGO are for mobile only. The Interbase options for Windows are to expensive since they are per seat and not an affordable one-time licensing.
I could just use a different database for the desktop version of my application and provide an import/export/sync module. This seems silly and stupid in 2021, but economics always trump ideal solutions.
Since I don't want to use SQLITE and my app requires an embedded database, does anyone have a better approach than two different databases?
Thanks in advance,

Interbase / Firebird Recommendations...

After some more investigation, I am going to use SQLite - it solves all my distribution problems and I can get around the few things I was unfamiliar with and thought would be problems.

Hello,
SQLite is a good choice for multi-platform applications. You may also try Firebird; note though that Firebird doesn't support iOS.
