encrypt_shared_preferences 0.9.10

This package adds extra layer of protection to sensitive information like user credentials, API keys, or other confidential data stored in your app.

Shared preferences are a simple key-value storage mechanism that can be used to store small amounts of data. However, since shared preferences are stored in plain text, it is not suitable for storing sensitive information. To address this issue, you can use AES encryption to encrypt the data before saving it to shared preferences.

To use shared preferences with AES encryption support, you can add this package to your project as dependency.

Legacy EncryptedSharedPreferences

void main() async {
  final key = "";
  await EncryptedSharedPreferences.initialize(key: key);
  var sharedPref = EncryptedSharedPreferences.getInstance();

  await sharedPref.setString(
      'user_token', 'xxxxxxxxxxxx', notify: true); ////notify = true by default

  sharedPref.getString('user_token'); //xxxxxxxxxxxx

  await sharedPref.setInt('age', 99, notify: true); //notify = true by default

  sharedPref.getInt('age', defaultValue: 1001); //99

  await sharedPref.setDouble('pi', 3.14, notify: true); //notify = true by default

  sharedPref.getDouble('pi'); //3.14

  await sharedPref.setBool('isPremium', true, notify: true); //notify = true by default

  sharedPref.getBool('isPremium'); //true

  await sharedPref.setStringList("stringList", ["apple", "orange", "boom"]);

  sharedPref.getStringList("stringList");

  await sharedPref.remove('user_token', notify: true); //notify = true by default

  await sharedPref.clear(notify: true); //notify = true by default

  await sharedPref.reload();

  final badKeys = {
    "key1"
        "key2"
  };
  await sharedPref.removeWhere((key, value) => badKeys.contains(key));

  sharedPref.observe(key: 'token').listen((event) {
    // event = key
    print(event);

  sharedPref.observeSet(keys: {'key1', 'key2', 'keyN'}).listen((event) {
    // event = key
    print(event);

[Shared builder] Here is example of how to use SharedBuilder widget

class _MyAppState extends State<MyApp> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: Scaffold(
        body: SharedBuilder(
          listenKeys: const {"key1", "key2"}, //Optional
          builder: (EncryptedSharedPreferences encryptedSharedPreferences, String? updatedKey) {
            return Text("value : ${encryptedSharedPreferences.getString("key1")}");
          },
        ),
        floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
          onPressed: () async {
            EncryptedSharedPreferences.getInstance()
                .setString('key1', 'dataValue');
            Future.delayed(const Duration(seconds: 3), () {
              EncryptedSharedPreferences.getInstance()
                  .setString('key2', 'dataValue');
            });
          },
        ),
      ),
    );
  }

Also you can add custom external encryptor

class CustomEncryptor extends IEncryptor {
  @override
  String decrypt(String key, String encryptedData) {
    //decryption logic
  }

  @override
  String encrypt(String key, String plainText) {
    //encryption logic
  }
}

void main() {
  final key = "";
  await EncryptedSharedPreferences.initialize(key: key, encryptor: CustomEncryptor());
  var sharedPref = EncryptedSharedPreferences.getInstance();
}
