How to get the Sqlite DB file from an Android phone or Windows desktop computer? I searched a lot, but can't find them.

I'm stuck in the fist step of the problem 🤷

@pauloneves this is for iOS/macOS apps only, other apps are completely different

Hey, thanks so much for this. I'm trying to extract the key to decrypt db - I don't have a local passcode, only the cloud one, and I'm getting raise Exception(f'hash mismatch: {dbHash} != {calcHash}'). Any ideas on what else I could try?
