# Get User Sync

> Get the currently logged-in User from local storage using the Stytch Vanilla JS SDK

export const isReact_0 = undefined

{isReact_0 &&
<Info>
  In React, use the <a href="../../hooks/use-stytch-user"><code>useStytchUser</code></a> hook to access the logged-in User and react to changes.
</Info>
}

The Stytch SDK caches the currently logged-in user. `user.getSync` is a synchronous method that fetches the currently logged-in User from the cache.

If there is no cached data, this method returns `null`.

The `user.getInfo` method is similar to `user.getSync`, but returns an object containing the `user` object and a `fromCache` boolean. If `fromCache` is true, the user object is from the cache and a state refresh is in progress.

You can listen for changes with the `user.onChange` method, which invokes your callback whenever the user object changes.

If you need to asynchronously fetch guaranteed-fresh data from the API, use the [`user.get`](./get-user) method.
