Error when trying to save image in NSUserDefaults using Swift

Question

When i try to save an image in NSUserDefaults, the app crashed with this error.

Why? Is it possible to save an image with NSUserDefaults? If not, then how do I save

Answer 1

In Swift 4 - 5

Set:

setImage(image: UIImage(named: "12")!)

func setImage(image : UIImage) {
    UserDefaults.standard.set(image.jpegData(compressionQuality: 100), forKey: "key")
}

Get

func getImage() -> UIImage? {
    if let imageData = UserDefaults.standard.value(forKey: "key") as? Data{
        if let imageFromData = UIImage(data: imageData){
            return imageFromData
        }
    }
    return nil
}
