IOS Android Shared Database

Hello,

I'm just getting started on the Android track and I'm working with a team to develop an app we want to have on IoS and android and eventually a web app. I'm not too far in with databases so excuse me if I have no idea what I'm talking about :)

We would like to know what the standard is for database setup when it comes to a cross platform app?

E.g. is it that Ios and Android have Sqlite databases and they constantly sync with a server database and update across devices?

Thanks for the help
