> i set up a “Collection” component at my app, proceed to uncheck the Action “allow users to edit items”(as i do not want other users editing but owner user)…but it is not working

You turned off the ability to edit items from the collection, but you have not changed the edit action on the title component on the detail screen for those items. Changing it on the collection only removes the edit button from the collection rows. It does not globally turn off editing if you still have it enabled elsewhere. Change the action on the title component.
