Well it probably disables SponsorBlock in the settings since those settings aren't set in regular NewPipe and off by default in ours.

This looks like it's working as intended. Is the setting on for you after import?

[killerrook]

Nope it doesn't work no matter how many times you try to switch sponsor block on or off after importing database from a official new pipe app

Thanks for telling me know the issue is now resolved. It works both with importing database only or importing database with settings. Closing this issue now
