Plex favorite libraries keep resetting on iOS

Been having an issue on iOS since the rollout of the new plex experience app.
Every time the app has to relaunch after the app has been closed, either forced or not, my favorite libraries will reset.
That in and of itself wouldn’t be too much of a problem, but the problem is that it defaults to 3 libraries that are on my friend’s server. So every time I relaunch the app, I have to dig through menus just to get to my own library.

I’ve tried every method I can think of to fix it; restarting server, reinstalling server, logging out, deleting app, reinstalling app. Every. Single. Time.
It’s the same 3 favorited libraries on a friend’s server that’s stuck on my home page.

I’ve even gone ahead and removed the friend from my plex account and their content is still shown on my front page.
I don’t know what else I can do at this point, the mobile app is unusable in this state.

Same issue on iPhone and iPad
Started having this issue in Version 2025.12.0 and it’s now Version 2025.21.0.

Server Version#: 1.41.9.9961
Player Version#: 2025.21.0
<If providing server logs please do NOT turn on verbose logging, only debug logging should be enabled>

So do I on all devices (iPhone, iPad, AppleTV). But no one is interested to fix this bug which is still there for now 5 months….

Looks like the issue is finally addressed silently since 2025.29.0.

Favorites seem to be saved on app restart.

Issue resolved….only took 17+ app revisions and no mention of it anywhere in the change logs for a complete UI experience breaking bug.
