SQLite: SQL Practice Stop watching SQL tutorials. Start writing real queries. SQLite: SQL Practice is the hands-on way to master SQL — from your first SELECT to advanced JOINs and subqueries — by actually writing code against real, interesting data. No multiple-choice shortcuts. No internet required. LEARN BY DOING, NOT BY GUESSING Most SQL apps test you with multiple-choice questions. Here, you write every query yourself in a real SQLite editor — because the only way to truly learn SQL is to type it, run it, and see the results. DATA YOU'LL ACTUALLY WANT TO QUERY Forget the boring "employees" and "students" tables from every textbook. Explore datasets you'll genuinely enjoy — and stay motivated while you practice everything from basic filters to complex aggregations. FROM BEGINNER TO ADVANCED, AT YOUR PACE Start with simple SELECT statements and progress step by step to advanced queries. Whether you're preparing for a technical interview, a data analytics course, or your first developer job, the path is laid out for you. BUILD YOUR OWN PRACTICE PLAYGROUND Create your own tables and fill them with whatever data you want. Practice the exact queries you need for work, school, or interviews — your database, your rules. TAKE YOUR WORK WITH YOU Export your tables and exercises to CSV or PDF with a clean, professional design. Perfect for sharing with classmates, attaching to study notes, or showing your progress. MAKE IT YOURS Choose from five beautiful, professional themes and practice in an editor that matches your style. PRACTICE ANYWHERE — 100% OFFLINE On a plane, on the subway, at the beach. Everything runs on your device, so you can practice SQLite anytime, with zero connection needed. Download SQLite: SQL Practice and turn "I'm learning SQL" into "I know SQL."

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SQLearn at none against SQLite's 2. SQLite's advantage is iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
