Can I get values from the local storage using Async Storage from React Native?

I am new at React Native. There is a native application written in Objective-C for iOS and Java for Android. My task is to add two more screens using React Native. The general solution is here.

The native code already uses a local storage to store permanent data (for example, data about an authorized user). At the same time, React Native uses Async Storage to handle permanent data.

you need to use setItem() for set data and getItem() for get data. Set data:

await AsyncStorage.setItem('key', 'data');

Fetch data:

await AsyncStorage.getItem('key');

As far as i know AsyncStorage is using Dictionary on iOS side and SQLite on android side. Both of which are not accessible in React Native side. You should write a bridge between native side and React Native to in order to allow passing of data between two sides, this https://github.com/sriraman/react-native-shared-preferences library is a good example, it allows React Native access local native shared prefrences and vice versa.
