AWS Amplify iOS: what is the most reliable way to find if a user is logged in

522 views Asked by At

Is it ok to check

Amplify.Auth.getCurrentUser() != nil

or should the app maintain a state variable and set that from this listener?

   _ = Amplify.Hub.listen(to: .auth) { payload in
        switch payload.eventName {
        case HubPayload.EventName.Auth.signedIn:
            // Update UI
            ....

If it's the latter, is that suppose to work even if the user logged in during one of the previous sessions?

After further research and from Discord discussions looks like this is the best approach:

Amplify.Auth.getCurrentUser() != nil
