Yes, iOS includes the SQLite library.

SQLite

iOS includes the popular SQLite library, a lightweight yet powerful relational database engine that is easily embedded into an application. Used in countless applications across many platforms, SQLite is considered a de facto industry standard for lightweight embedded SQL database programming. Unlike the object-oriented Core Data framework, SQLite uses a procedural, SQL-focused API to manipulate the data tables directly.

SQLite is inbuilt in iOS. The database is a simple .db(usually)/.sqlite file which you will have to copy as a part of deployment.
