    Then it sounds more like a browser cache malfunction for that user. Wasn't there a change in the persistent storage policy too?

    suhayl_qodirov,
    Try opening the app in incognito mode. Browser cache affects the performance or rendering many times.

    Also, make sure persietent filters is checked in the underlying report.

Note: AI helped me to format this response.

  • Normally, persistent filters (slicer/filter selections) should be saved when a user interacts with a report — filters/slicers are retained between sessions.

  • But when you view the report via a Power BI App, many users report that slicer selections reset on browser refresh — i.e. persistence does not work in App mode. this is “by design” (or a limitation).

Conclusion: In a Power BI App, slicer selections generally do not persist after a browser refresh — this appears to be expected behavior (or at least a known limitation), not a bug you can fully fix using settings.
