There is a bug with the new variables. See here:

> LATEST UPDATE: @AcrobatEpee picked the solution from the universe and brought it to earth. You can see an example image of the workaround or solution in another more specific thread: I give up - can any great guy help me? Otherwise no coding for me today sleepy UPDATE: Still coding slight_smile I recommend everyone who wants to add an item to a list to use listviewer instead of list variable. just set the height to 0 (zero). Then the listitems can be used instead of a list-var…

Until Thunkable team fixes the issue, you’ll need to either (a) use a hidden listviewer to store and manipulate the list or (b) create variables via function with variables or a “for each item in j” block
