I don’t know why this random array is appearing in my app ![Screenshot 2021-01-09 162511](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/6/0/60bea9238efab0955e1d9b7284d29e28ddc22b7c.jpeg) ---

Messages others from web the last one from thunkable which is causing the issue I think thats because I’m saving a list variable and its taking the details of the variable too ---

It is a byproduct of thunkable that generally is not an issue Check out this thread. > [@\[Solved\] \_scopeVariableInfo in Realtime Database](http://community.thunkable.com/t/scopevariable-in-rt-database/1042074/3): > > This issue is related to storing lists and has no effect on the code anyway. There is a workaround which you can find in one of the old posts. However, I didn’t even consider that workaround because the incident has no effect on my work. ---
