Companion app stopped sharing location with HA

Mobile Apps Home Assistant Companion for Android

To eliminate connectivity issues between the app/device to HA, I’ve verified all other sensors like battery state and volumes are in sync and reported correctly to HA.
The “geocoded_location” sensor is accurate and up to date so it’s not an issue with the location itself or missing permissions (which were verified regardless)
The thing is, the device_tracker entity, created by the app stopped updating a few days ago and it’s not getting any value since.
Nothing has changed on HA side and my wife’s tracking is working properly using the same config.
I’ve verified
How can I troubleshoot this?

Running latest HA (2021.9.7) on Docker
Pixel 5, app version 2021.9.0-full

Everything in the logs suggested it should work…
Clearing the storage fixed it, it’s a bummer that I have to re-select the wanted sensors out of the 80 possible but at least it works now
