Please, help me. I dont know what is wrong with this code: trying to get the user passcode stored in preference but geting errot this is my tried code

        'package:shared_preferences/shared_preferences.dart';

    final PINRepository pinRepository;
    isUserloggedIn() async {
      // Obtain shared preferences.

Answer 1

passcode is possible null, right? i think you can null check.

like followed code.

final prefs = await SharedPreferences.getInstance();
final String passcode = prefs.getString('status');
if (passcode == null)
{
    await prefs.setString('status', '');
    String passcode = '';
} 

i'm not sure this solution. addition, need to your error message.
