Async storage not working to set or get on React Native

The complete to use AsyncStorage with async and await is the following

import { getItem as localStorageGetItem, setItem as localStorageSetItem } from 'services/localStorage';
async loginHandler (){
     localStorageSetItem(ACCESS_TOKEN, response.accessToken);
     var token = await localStorageGetItem(ACCESS_TOKEN);
}

localStorage.js file

import AsyncStorage from '@react-native-community/async-storage';

export const getItem = async(item) => {
    try {
        const value = await AsyncStorage.getItem(item);
        return JSON.parse(value);
    } catch (error) {
        return null;
    }
};

export const setItem = async(item,value)=>{
    try {
        await AsyncStorage.setItem(item, JSON.stringify(value));
    } catch (error) {
        console.log("SetItem error ",error)
        return null;
    }
}

alert(login); will always be undefined because AsyncStorage.getItem is asynchronous in nature meaning alert(login) is called first before you receive the value from AsyncStorage.getItem

AsyncStorage.getItem("login").then((value) => {
      alert(value); // you will need use the alert in here because this is the point in the execution which you receive the value from getItem.
    // you could do your authentication and routing logic here but I suggest that you place them in another function and just pass the function as seen in the example below.
});

// a function that receives value
const receiveLoginDetails = (value) => {
    alert(value);
}
// pass the function that receives the login details;
AsyncStorage.getItem("login").then(receiveLoginDetails);

import { AsyncStorage } from 'react-native';

AsyncStorage.setItem('mobileNumber', phoneNumber.number);

AsyncStorage.getItem('mobileNumber', (error, result) => {
  this.setState({
    loginMobileNo: result,
  });
