Time not saving

I have made a database for tasks that include columns for Start Date, Start Time, End Date, End Time. However, when I go to update cells in the Start Time or End Time they disappear after a few seconds.

Even without the Start Date or End Date, sometimes the time just disappears after I enter it, like it's not being synced with the database.

I've noticed that if I just use a Day/Time column instead of two separate columns, it seems to work fine- 

Here is a screenshot of the app preview two seconds apart, to illustrate the issue:

Has anyone encountered this before?

How are these columns being set/updated?

Hey 1min! 

They are being updated with the app, that said. Direct changes to the Appsheet database seem to be retained

Please try to be more precise. Are you using a Database, are you calling your worksheet a database or are you using the AppSheet Database beta?
Because the last one is full of bugs

Hello, yes I am using Appsheet Database, I guess that would explain it

AppSheet Databases is in preview and is not suitable for use in any important app.
