Storage Inspector FAQ
Will editing a value break the app?
It can, which is often the point when reproducing a bug. Export first if you want to restore the original state.
Why is storage empty on some pages?
Storage is scoped per origin, and some contexts — sandboxed frames, or browsers with storage disabled — block it entirely.
What is the difference between localStorage and sessionStorage?
localStorage persists until it is explicitly cleared; sessionStorage is wiped when the tab closes. Both are per-origin, and the inspector shows each separately.
