That's pretty simple. It should just be something like this:

NSData *fetchedData = ...;    /* downloaded using NSURLConnection or whatever*/
NSString *documentsPath = [NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES) lastObject];
NSString *filePath = [documentsPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"DBName.sqlite"];

[fetchedData writeToFile:filePath atomically:YES];
