Downloads
Note — If for any reason the standard Windows release does not work (e.g. gives an error), try a nightly build (below).
Nightly builds often fix bugs reported after the last release. 😄
macOS
Our latest release (3.12.2) for macOS:
Homebrew
If you prefer using Homebrew for macOS, our latest release can be installed via Homebrew Cask:
brew install --cask db-browser-for-sqlite
Nightly builds
Download nightly builds for Windows and macOS here:
Linux
Our latest release is available as an AppImage, Snap packages, and distribution specific packages:
AppImage
Remember to change it’s permission bits to be executable before you run it. 😄
Snap packages
Snap Release build
snap install sqlitebrowser
Snap Nightly builds
snap install sqlitebrowser --devmode
Other distribution specific instructions:
Arch Linux
Install with the following command:
sudo pacman -S sqlitebrowser
Fedora
Install for Fedora (i386 and x86_64) by issuing the following command:
sudo dnf install sqlitebrowser
openSUSE
sudo zypper install sqlitebrowser
Debian
Note that Debian focuses more on stability rather than newest features. Therefore packages will typically contain some older version, compared to the latest release.
Install the package using:
sudo apt-get install sqlitebrowser
Ubuntu and Derivatives
Stable release
For Ubuntu and derivaties, @deepsidhu1313 provides a PPA with the latest release here:
To add this ppa just type in these commands in terminal:
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:linuxgndu/sqlitebrowser
Then update the cache using:
Install the package using:
sudo apt-get install sqlitebrowser
Ubuntu 14.04.X, 15.04.X, 15.10.X and 16.04.X are supported for now (until Launchpad decides to discontinue building for any series).
Ubuntu Precise (12.04) and Utopic (14.10) are not supported:
- Precise does not have a new enough Qt package in its repository by default, which is a dependency
- Launchpad does not support Utopic any more, which has reached its End of Life
Nightly builds
Nightly builds are available here:
To add this ppa, type these commands into the terminal:
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:linuxgndu/sqlitebrowser-testing
Then update the cache using:
Install the package using:
sudo apt-get install sqlitebrowser
Other Linux
On others, compile DB4S using the instructions in BUILDING.md.
FreeBSD
DB Browser for SQLite works well on FreeBSD, and there is a port for it (thanks to lbartoletti 😄). DB4S can be installed using either this command:
make -C /usr/ports/databases/sqlitebrowser install
pkg install sqlitebrowser
DB Browser for SQLite
2017-09-28 — Added PortableApp version of 3.10.1. Thanks John. 🙂
2017-09-20 — DB Browser for SQLite 3.10.1 has been released! 😀
2017-09-08 — Removed the continuous AppImage builds for Linux due to problems with the upload script.

What it is
DB Browser for SQLite is a high quality, visual, open source tool to create, design, and edit database files compatible with SQLite.
It is for users and developers wanting to create databases, search, and edit data. It uses a familiar spreadsheet-like interface, and you don’t need to learn complicated SQL commands.
Controls and wizards are available for users to:
- Create and compact database files
- Create, define, modify and delete tables
- Create, define and delete indexes
- Browse, edit, add and delete records
- Search records
- Import and export records as text
- Import and export tables from/to CSV files
- Import and export databases from/to SQL dump files
- Issue SQL queries and inspect the results
- Examine a log of all SQL commands issued by the application
What it is not
This program is not a visual shell for the sqlite command line tool. It does not require familiarity with SQL commands. It is a tool to be used both by developers and by end users, and it must remain as simple to use as possible in order to achieve its goals.
Nightly builds
Nightly builds for Windows and OSX can be downloaded here:

Arch Linux
Arch Linux provides a package through pacman.
Fedora
For Fedora (i386 and x86_64) you can install by issuing:
$ sudo dnf install sqlitebrowser

Note that Debian focuses more on stability rather than newest features. Therefore packages will typically contain some older (but well tested) version, compared to the latest release.
Install the package using:
sudo apt-get install sqlitebrowser

History
This program was developed originally by Mauricio Piacentini (@piacentini) from Tabuleiro Producoes, as the Arca Database Browser. The original version was used as a free companion tool to the Arca Database Xtra, a commercial product that embeds SQLite databases with some additional extensions to handle compressed and binary data.
The original code was trimmed and adjusted to be compatible with standard SQLite 2.x databases. The resulting program was renamed SQLite Database Browser, and released into the Public Domain by Mauricio. Icons were contributed by Raquel Ravanini, also from Tabuleiro. Jens Miltner (@jmiltner) contributed the code to support SQLite 3.x databases for the 1.2 release.
Pete Morgan (@daffodil) created an initial project on GitHub with the code in 2012, where several contributors fixed and improved pieces over the years. René Peinthor (@rp-) and Martin Kleusberg (@MKleusberg) then became involved, and have been the main driving force from that point. Justin Clift (@justinclift) helps out with testing on OSX, and started the new github.com/sqlitebrowser organisation on GitHub.
John T. Haller, of PortableApps.com fame, created the new logo. He based it on the Tango icon set (public domain).
In August 2014, the project was renamed to «Database Browser for SQLite» at the request of Richard Hipp (creator of SQLite), as the previous name was creating unintended support issues.
In September 2014, the project was renamed to «DB Browser for SQLite», to avoid confusion with an existing application called «Database Browser».
