I'm trying to encrypt the KMP's room DB for android and iOS using SQLCipher.

For android, I can get it done by the openHelperFactory

internal fun getDatabaseBuilder(app: Application): RoomDatabase.Builder<MyDatabase> {
    val passphrase: ByteArray = SQLiteDatabase.getBytes("temp_passphrase".toCharArray())
    val factory = SupportFactory(passphrase)
    val dbFile = app.getDatabasePath(KMPConstants.DB_FILE_NAME)
    return Room.databaseBuilder<MyDatabase>(
        context = app,
        name = dbFile.absolutePath,
    )
        .openHelperFactory(factory)
}

How do I do it for iOS?

[Manoj Kumar]

Currently you can't encrypt room DB in iOS using SQLCipher. Does anyone have any idea on how to do it myself? Or should I just wait for SQLCipher to support it?

For that I think you have to check the internal implementation of IOS side in Room library.

then only you can conclude that.
