Cause

This is by design. This issue occurs when the item details page and the configuration page of the ArcGIS Instant Apps app are opened simultaneously in different tabs or windows.

Solution or Workaround

To solve the issue, close one of the pages during editing and work on the same tab or window.

Alternatively, ensure the Save buttons are clicked every time the Summary and Description sections are modified before configuring the app.
