Cannot upgrade to SDK33: SQLite files location changed

Expo SDK
1

It looks like the location of where SQLite files are stored changed in SDK33.
It used to be in /data/…/files/ExperienceData/app-slug-perhaps/SQLite
In SDK33 it is in /data/…/files/SQLite
This is in a standalone app, on Android.

As a result, it is not possible to cleanly update apps with existing data (without losing the existing data).
Is there some kind of migration procedure to execute when the app starts or something? I didn’t find anything about this in the SDK33 release notes…

Thanks for help,
Martin.

UPDATE: After some digging I concluded this is a bug and created a bug report here: App data files not moved to new location when upgrading SDK31->SDK33 · Issue #4537 · expo/expo · GitHub

Hey @ecatch,

Thanks for opening the issue, we’ll look into it!

Also, we’ll just continue with any updates there, to keep it all in one place
