There are duplicated channels and videos, how to remove them?

    First, let the app finish loading completely, wait for the circular loading icon on the top right corner on the Home screen to finish.

    Then, quit and kill the app completely by swiping up on your iPhone, then swipe away to close ZenTube app from running in the background.

    Finally, restart the app and wait for the loading icon to finish again, and you should be good to go.

*This issue is known to be caused by the initial synchronization difference between devices from old version to new version.
