You can also use FireFox's Add-on tool SQLite Manager (FREE). I use it and it works well.

Answer 3

If you are using iOS 10 & Swift get it into your AppDelegate.swift:

  let container = NSPersistentContainer(name: "***")
  print(container.persistentStoreDescriptions.first?.url)

Then you'll see something like that:

Optional(file:///Users/<SomeUser>/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/956F0003-5DA4-4588-97C1-A9A83767F341/data/Containers/Data/Application/9765FDE1-6971-4706-987B-96FBD3F462BF/Library/Application%20Support/***.sqlite)
