How to Save Values and Objects in Async Storage in React Native Apps

Hi everyone!
Today I want to show you how to add local storage to your React Native Android and iOS apps written in React Native. By using react native's async storage if you have some data you want to store between different sessions of the app you can save it locally and load it when you load up the app next. It can be useful for providing a good user experience to app users if you haven't yet been able to invest in building APIs for more continuous storage of user data. I will show you how to save and get objects (using json) and singular values from async storage, and I will also show how you can load data for multiple keys at once and also individually get data from the device's local storage. For this tutorial I will show you how to use @react-native-async-storage/async-storage as react native's older AsyncStorage package has been deprecated.
The full code for this tutorial can be found on GitHub:

And the full documentation for @react-native-async-storage/async-storage can be found here:

// ABOUT ME
My name is Chelsea and I started studying software engineering in 2010. I have been working commercially full time since 2014 and have been in various positions from graduate developer to tech lead to solution architect.
I'm a full stack developer with a lot of experience in C# and Javascript but my passion is for mobile development; specifically native iOS development and cross platform using React Native.
I always have many things on the go and am always trying out a new side hustle and failing at it; perhaps you can learn from my mistakes!

This is a very nice video but i have a real problem which is taking me days. I retrieve Items from a local database which has an ID I want to increase the count for each individual item that i have in my cart. I can show items, can add them to the cart, but when it comes to increment, Every item gets incremented. Its been a very long time & i cant solve it. Can you please create a video about a cart & multiple items with ID's?

[@sjaakgroeneveld9041]

I get a Render error: "Objects are not valid as a React child (found: object with keys {greeting, test} If you meant to render a collection of children, use an array instead. "

[@keyurshah95]

JSON.stringify() the object before trying to display it

[@leoporty2924]
