Question

Can someone please help me understand why this bool isn’t saving?

Here is my code in the view did load:

[appDelegate.defaults setBool:YES forKey:@"testKey"];
[appDelegate.defaults synchronize];
NSLog (@"TEST BOOL VALUE = %@", [appDelegate.defaults boolForKey:@"testKey"] ? @"YES" : @"NO");

In the app delegate applicationDidFinishLaunching, I define appdelegate.defaults as this:

    self.defaults = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];

Why is this not working I honestly have no idea.

Thanks!!

Answer 1

appDelegate is nil when you are calling the mentioned code.

Try adding an NSSlog to check that:

NSLog(@"appDelegate: %@", appDelegate);
NSLog(@"appDelegate.defaults: %@", appDelegate.defaults);
[appDelegate.defaults setBool:YES forKey:@"testKey"];
// ...
