WebSQL - Capacity

I have a PhoneGap app on iOS using a WebSQL database. In some places I'm reading that the storage capacity is 5MB and in others I'm reading it's 50MB, can someone clear this up for me? Also I'm planning on storing base64 images inside the database. Should I do this or should I write the images to the filesystem instead to save space in the db?

Limit for localstorage is 5MB and WebSql is 50MB in iOS. If you use Sqlite plugin with your phonegap app, database size can be increased.

I know this is an old post but during my testing on WebSQL on iOS I found that the limit is 50MB (if you just use the WebSQL without plugins).

I created a plugin to work around this limit for storage.
