Troubleshooting

[iOS] CocoaPods issues

1. Delete the node_modules folder(s) from your project
2. Run yarn or npm install
3. If you're using CocoaPods:
   1. Make sure your Podfile has this entry:

      pod 'RNCAsyncStorage', :path => '../node_modules/@react-native-async-storage/async-storage'

   2. Make sure your Podfile does not have an entry for react-native-async-storage.
   3. pod install
   4. pod update RNCAsyncStorage
4. Open your Xcode project
5. Press ⇧⌥⌘K to clean your build folder
6. Build and run your project

Note that every time @react-native-async-storage/async-storage gets updated, you must also run pod update RNCAsyncStorage otherwise you'll still be using the previous version.

• Make sure that you've run pod install or pod update RNCAsyncStorage (see also CocoaPods issues).

• If you've manually linked React Native, but use CocoaPods for AsyncStorage, AsyncStorage will not be able to find React headers. You'll need to set header search path, or also consume React Native via CocoaPods.

• Make sure that React dependencies are not removed from projects. Without the target dependency set, Xcode may build things out of order and the React headers will not be installed when AsyncStorage is built.

  post_install do |installer|
    installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
      if target.name == "React"
        target.remove_from_project
      end
    end
  end

• Try switching back to the legacy build system in Xcode. You can find it in File > Project/Workspace Settings sheet.

[@RNC/AsyncStorage]: NativeModule: AsyncStorage is null

iOS

This error means that AsyncStorage was unable to find its native module. This occurs because AsyncStorage was not linked into the final app bundle.

• Make sure that you've run pod install or pod update RNCAsyncStorage (see also CocoaPods issues).

• If you have an Expo app, AsyncStorage will not work unless you eject the app. After ejecting the app, you may have to manually link depending on whether you chose to use Expo SDK.
