# React Native Async Storage

Async Storage is an unencrypted, asynchronous, persistent key-value storage system for React Native. It was removed from React Native core and now lives in the community package `@react-native-async-storage/async-storage`. It is primarily used for persisting small amounts of data offline, such as user preferences or session data.
