Im struggling with this library. Ive set the item in shoppingCart to an empty array. Getting the item should return []. It doesnt, its like the promise never awaits and resolves. and yes its inside an async function.

const key = "shoppingCart"
const results = await AsyncStorage.getItem(key);
console.log(results);

returns {"_h": 0, "_i": 0, "_j": null, "_k": null} every time. I have even tried using the callback version.

AsyncStorage.getItem(key, (err, results)=>{
console.log(results)
})

and it STILL returns {"_h": 0, "_i": 0, "_j": null, "_k": null}
