How to delete all data HistoryTable have time older than 30days in SQLite Android

                    + COL_TITLE + " TEXT, "  
                    + COL_MEDIA_NAME + " TEXT, "

                    + COL_URL + " TEXT, "  
                    + COL_CREATED_AT + " INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0, "  
                    + COL_UPDATED_AT + " INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 "  
                    + ")";

    long id = -1;
    try {
        database.beginTransaction();
        statement.clearBindings();

    } catch (Exception e) {

Your timestamp columns contain a number, which is the number of milliseconds since 1970. The date function returns a string in the format yyyy-mm-dd.

Either change your database to store the timestamps in the same format, or change the query to compute the date limit in the millisecond format:

... WHERE CreatedAt <= strftime('%s', 'now', '-30 days') * 1000

Used datediff function

When it comes to SQL, you have to specify what you mean by "older than a day".

DATEDIFF: it uses day boundary midnight so run it at 19th October 00:05 and you'll delete rows 6 minutes old (18th October 23:59)

24 hours?

Yesterday midnight? Run code on 19th October, delete rows before 18th?

Also, don't put a function on a column.

This assumes 24 hours to the minute:

DELETE MyTableWhere WHERE MyColumn < DATEADD(day, -1, GETDATE()) This assumes yesterday midnight:

DELETE MyTableWhere WHERE MyColumn < DATEADD(DAY, DATEDIFF(DAY, 0, GETDATE()), -1)
