Mobile layout deleted when disabling comments
Hi all,
I think I may have found a bug, but I'm looking for a workaround. The problem is when I modify the report settings in PBI service to disable user comments, it completely deletes my mobile layout. The strange part is that it doesn't do it right away, it's only after several minutes that it disappears. I have to republish the report to get the mobile layout back. This is not the behavior I expect so I think it's a bug. But what can I do about it in the meantime? My users are expecting that this report is showing ONLY their data so I don't want them using the comments to record information they think is private to them.
Thank you!

As a mitigation, restore to PBIRLegacy should bring back the lost mobile layout if the report upgraded in the last 28 days: Restore the V1 backup Power BI Desktop project report folder - Power BI | Microsoft LearnPlease let me know if this helps mitigate the issue until the fix will be deployed.Thanks, Maya

Could you please confirm if the issue has been resolved after raising a support case? If a solution has been found, it would be greatly appreciated if you could share your insights with the community. This would be helpful for other members who may encounter similar issues.
Thank you for your understanding and assistance.
It sounds like a bug. Disabling comments shouldn't delete the mobile layout. As a temporary workaround, avoid changing that setting in the Service after publishing, and report it to Microsoft Support since it appears to be a service-side issue. Hopefully they'll fix it soon.
