React Native AsyncStorage returns promise instead of value

Question

I understand this is a very common problem in RN and I am still trying to understand the very possible advantage of returning a promise when loading data from a property file in

Answer 1

the thing is await turns the promise into a value, you don't need to use .then(). Try the following:

const keys = await AsyncStorage.getAllKeys()
const values = await AsyncStorage.multiGet(keys)

// at this point `values` will have data for all keys
