same thing for me, following the instruction on the readme this, I can not get darta on widget. It shows it saves in the app but it does not show up in the widget or userdefault storage

Finally I managed to get it work

The identifier for app group should have some postfix, for example, your main app identifier is com.domain.myapp, then you app group identifier should be group.com.domain.myapp.store

In widget side, we can get the data like so in the timeline `

func getTimeline(for configuration: ConfigurationIntent, in context: Context, completion: @escaping (Timeline) -> ()) { let userDefaults = UserDefaults(suiteName:"group.com.domain.myapp.store)

var user: User?
do {
    let shared = userDefaults?.string(forKey: "user")
    print("data", shared)

    if(shared != nil){
        user = try JSONDecoder().decode(User.self, from: shared!.data(using: .utf8)!)
    }
 } catch{
  print(error)
 }

let entry = UserEntry(date: Date(), configuration: ConfigurationIntent(), user: user)
let timeline = Timeline(entries: [entry], policy: .atEnd)
completion(timeline)

} ` then in the entry view, you can get this user data by entry.user

Can also use react-native-widget-bridge, call WidgetBridge.reloadWidget('MyApp_Widget') every time you do some changes

I'm not sure this is the best way to deal with it or not, but it works for me

I think the group identifier can be anything. Make sure to add same App Group and check the check box in both the app and the widget configuration.

@duyhodev Hello,

I hope you're doing well.

I've integrated this library to store data in the app group and successfully used SharedGroupPreferences.setItem and SharedGroupPreferences.getItem.

However, when attempting to fetch the stored data on the iOS native side, it returns nil values.

Could you please provide guidance on whether there are any extra configurations needed?

I've created a widget extension, but I'm unsure if additional code needs to be written inside the extension file.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

I did integrations with the help of this document: https://www.cristiangutu.pro/share-data-between-react-native-and-ios-widgets/

Hey @sekoucox7913, I have attached screenshots that show the code snippets you asked for. They cover the shared data setting part on the React Native side and the getting part on the iOS Native side. If you have any further queries, feel free to let me know.
