With Async Storage, the React Native build should compile successfully.

Repro steps

Create a React native project With some basic View Rendering compile it, it should compile successfully Now, import Async Storage in the code & now the build should fail

Environment

• Async Storage version: 1.9.0
• React-Native version: 0.62.2
• Platform tested: Android

Hi,

Enable multi-dex support in your project for app (in android/app/build.gradle):

android {
    defaultConfig {
        ...
+        multiDexEnabled true
    }
    ...
}

@dmrajiv You don’t have to link it manually if you’re working with RN 0.60+. First code would work if you’d actually call the function you’ve defined.

componentDidMount(){
  getData = async () => {
    // your code here
  };
+  getData();
}
