Limitations from the official documentation:

  • The upper limit of class names is 57 characters. Realm for Android prepend class_ to all names, and the browser will show it as part of the name.
  • The length of field names has a upper limit of 63 character. Nested transactions are not supported, and an exception is thrown if they are detected.
  • Strings and byte arrays (byte[]) cannot be larger than 16 MB
  • Sorting and case insensitive string matches in queries are only supported for character sets in ‘Latin Basic’, ‘Latin Supplement’, ‘Latin Extended A’, ‘Latin Extended B’ (UTF-8 range 0-591). In addition, setting the case insensitive flag in queries when using equalTo(), contains(), endsWith() or beginsWith() will only work on characters from the English locale.

The only limitation that I find iffy is that you still can't store List<Integer> or List<String> (list of primitives), you have to make a RealmObject that contains the value (RealmList<TelephoneNumber> for example), or store the list in a String field.

The primitive list limitation will be removed by realm-core 3.0.0 and realm-java 4.0.0.

No limitation on how much data to be stored. It only depends on the Hard disk size.
