Answer from AI

The following methods and approaches are used for saving data objects in iOS:

  • UserDefaults — for storing small settings and simple data (strings, numbers, boolean values).
  • Keychain — for securely storing confidential data, such as passwords.
  • File system — saving data to files (e.g., JSON, plist, binary files).
  • Core Data — a framework for managing object models and storing data in an SQLite database with complex query capabilities.
  • Realm — a third-party database, convenient for storing objects with synchronization.

Example of saving a string in UserDefaults:

UserDefaults.standard.set("value", forKey: "key")

The choice of method depends on the volume, data structure, and security requirements.
