Favorites require firmware 2.3.2 or greater and are stored in the node db I see favorite staying through multiple bluetooth connections and hundreds of seen nodes on MQTT, you should be able to favorite up to 99 nodes

Yes but it is not working as expected for the newest prerelease-firmware release and meshtastic iOS update released today. On firmware 2.5.0

I can add this to the firmware github if it's a firmware and not an application issue.

Your node db is lost when you update, this is expected.

Yes, this is fine and I've experienced it before but what I mean is making new favorites they do not stick

So let's say you add a new user as a favorite a few minutes later it will disappear in the nodes list and on the private message list

@jp-bennett I am seeing this issue on 2.5, the app side add and remove is all working, but we are losing favorites from the node db over time. I started with 6 and now have 4

Yeah, there seems to be some strange paradoxical things happening in this new update I am just confused at times whether to report it to the firmware or to the iOS-app GitHub

Same thing with the signal values I don't know if you've experienced it yet or with the GPS

Is this a LR1110 based radio? (Seeed T1000-E for example?)

From what I know it is a no. Current use case is a heltec v3 whatever comes stock with it

The signal meter is only on nodes you can connect to directly over Lora

I did some local verbose debugging, and noticed a few things, at least on my devices. The number of favorites in firmware didn't actually change. iOS was dropping a node as a favorite, when the remote node sent in a position packet. And when manually disconnecting and reconnecting Bluetooth, the list of favorite nodes is restored, until the next position packet comes in.
