Hi. I’m trying out glideapps (which I’m finding is amazing!) with some baseball data from last year. I have the favorites component showing up for “Teams I Follow”. Staying in the app, selected items will appear when Favorite is tapped, and delected when tapping it again. However, if I close the app and go back in, the Favorites is not saved. 'What could I be doing wrong?

My app’s URL: [https://bbstlsched.glideapp.io](https://bbstlsched.glideapp.io)

I can confirm this. It doesn’t seem to be holding on to the favorites after reloading the app.

The problem is that you’re using a Template column as the Favorite key, which Glide doesn’t unfortunately support yet. It shouldn’t have let you pick it in the first place - that’s a bug that we’ll fix soon.

I suggest adding a Row ID column to that sheet, and then you won’t even have to worry about a key anymore.

I will give that a try. Thank you for checking it out.
