Yes. The Android library provides native support to only SQLite. Of course, this doesn’t mean you absolutely can’t use other databases on Android; if you need to use other databases, you’ll have to either look for already-existing third-party libraries(1), or roll out your own API.
(1) Careful there: If you look for third-party libraries, make sure they’re built specifically for Android, since Android includes only a subset of the Java standard library. If they’re not specifically built for Android, there’s a possibility that the libraries won’t work due to missing classes.
