having the same behavior. upgraded Expo from sdk 39 to sdk 41 and this is what's happening

same codebase with SDK 39 works.

Edit: Gathering sample code and project

For all Expo related issues, please use Expo's forums. This one in particular might be of interest: https://forums.expo.io/t/expo-40-rn-asyncstorage-nativemodule-asyncstorage-is-null/46757

i am using react-native and testing in android, since i have implement this storage i have getting issue, i tried all way like removing node module and resting my react cache still having same problem. I using NX with React native

Found the root cause for my problem, not an issue with this plugin BUT third party plugin that requires it:
As of Expo SDK 41 @react-native-community/async-storage got renamed to @react-native-async-storage/async-storage. There's a plugin that hasn't updated their code to point to the right one. Now that I see my screenshot, it's clear.

plugin affected is redux-storage-engine-reactnativeasyncstorage and there's a PR that needs to be merged to fix it. react-stack/redux-storage-engine-reactnativeasyncstorage#4

@JigmeLodey: You still need to fill out the template. We don't know what your set up looks like.

• What version are you using?
• Provide information about your dev environment: Run yarn react-native info and paste the output here.
• Provide repro steps or a minimal project with the bug reproducible. We cannot help you if we can't repro this locally.

Is this what NX refers to: https://github.com/nrwl/nx-react-native? Have you tried reaching out to them?

Please Help Getting the same issue

[AbutoJoshua]

I have the same issue but I initialized my project with expo and not necessarily react native. How can I solve that?

@spuerto-rico: You're using a two year old version of React Native. Recent improvements such as auto-linking should solve your issue without having to mess around with project files. If you're unable to update, I'd have a look at how to manually link AsyncStorage into your project.

@AbutoJoshua: If you're using Expo, please ask in the Expo forum. This thread is probably a good start: https://forums.expo.io/t/expo-40-rn-asyncstorage-nativemodule-asyncstorage-is-null/46757/4

In general, Expo is not really using this library. It is compatible, but the code isn't used. You're using the binaries that come with Expo SDK. If you're having issues with it, please ask in the Expo forum. We cannot help you.

If you're not using Expo, we need your full system information and repro steps to help you. In most cases, it's a setup issue and not a bug in AsyncStorage. Reading the documentation on how this works might help you: https://github.com/react-native-community/cli/blob/master/docs/autolinking.md.

If you're still stuck, please open a new issue but do note that with our limited capacity, we will prioritize real bugs over providing support.
