Hi, for the update of an ionic app from 5.3.4 to 6.1.13, also the ionic storage package changed from @ionic/storage (version 2) to @ionic/storage-angular (version 3). The whole app works fine, however I am unable to get already saved data with the new storage-module. Saving / retrieving new data wi…
