💡 𝗧𝗶𝗽 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝘆 — 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 (𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗼)

𝗗𝗶𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄? In Expo, "expo-secure-store" is the safest way to store sensitive data like tokens and credentials.

Unlike "AsyncStorage", SecureStore encrypts data and stores it in:

- 𝗞𝗲𝘆𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻 on iOS

- 𝗞𝗲𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗲 on Android

🔧 𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝗶𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿:

- Auth tokens

- Session keys

- Sensitive user preferences

Never store secrets in plain "AsyncStorage".
