Backdrops Favorites Don't Save Changes

I have tried several times to change the pictures in my favorites list (removing some and adding others), but the list doesn't save the changes. I even tried clearing the entire favorite list, but when I went to Roku home and back into Backdrops, all the photos I removed were back. Is there some way to manually save changes or make sure that changes I make don't just revert?

Hey there! @dndgeek2005 

We understand you’re having trouble with Backdrops.

Could you send a photo of any error messages you're seeing when trying to save your favorite backdrops? We’ll look into it.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon!

Cheers,
Roku Community Team

There isn’t an error message displayed. I can no longer edit the images in My Favorites. Backdrops allows for 100 images in My Favorites. I have 100 paintings chosen. When I remove 15 of those, close Backrops, open another app, then reopen Backdrops, my edits have not been saved. My Favorites still has the 15 removed images; 100 images saved.  How do I save my edited My Favorites list?

I’m also having a similar issue. I will remove all my current favorites and those changes apply, but when I go to add new ones and start backdrops it goes back to the original ones I had favorited. I tried deleting the app, restarting the TV and re-downloading the app but no luck.
