SQLite isolated from other apps

I cannot find an answer after searching on the internet, but if my app creates a database on mobile device named 'myDB' with a table called 'users' what happens if another vendor's app on the user's device creates the exact same name? Are the databases isolated by app?

If you're talking about a Android device: yes, other apps can't access your app database. (unless they have root access)

Android provides full support for SQLite databases. Any databases you create will be accessible by name to any class in the application, but not outside the application.
