Gboard settings keep getting reset after some time

Hi, after a few hours my Gboard settings are reset to the defaults. I have no idea what's causing this. Since I didn't find any others online with that problem, I thought it has to be unique to the zenfone.

Any idea what could cause this? It's really annoying, I basically have to reconfigure Gboard every time I pick up my phone.

Can you try to clear cache & storage of Asus Zenui launcher and Gboard and check again?
Steps to clear cache and storage of both 👇
Settings> Apps & notifications >Gboard/Asus launcher> storage > clear cache/Clear storage/force stop> now use for sometime & see the behaviour.
Also you can try to reset permissions of those apps and check again.
Thanks!

Ok, I tried it, after about an hour of not using the phone it was reset again. But something I just noticed, when I unlocked my phone I got a permission popup of Gboard asking for access to my contacts (which I allowed), might be relevant? The popup was just there after unlocking without me doing anything.

If you have reset the permission of Gboard/any app then it should definetly ask you for all the permissions again.
