Also, next time remember to check the documentation (http://ai2.appinventor.mit.edu/reference/components/storage.html#TinyDB).

Lists and dictionaries as the tag too?
That's news to me.

P.S. I double checked your doc link, and found

Data items consist of tags and values. To store a data item, you specify the tag it should be stored under. The tag must be a text block, giving the data a name. Subsequently, you can retrieve the data that was stored under a given tag.

the tag can accept any type of data, but it will be casted to string automatically.

and the value can be a Component (last block of Component drawer), but it only can be retrieved at runtime, and can not 'trans-screens'.

This can open up interesting possibilities, for mischief and for good.
