Screen Time “Always Allowed” Keeps Resetting

Multiple times I’ve added apps to the Always Allowed list but it has reset 3 times or more in 3 days. At first I did it in airplane mode and then when I turned on wifi, it reset. So the next two times I did it with wifi on. Then at some point in the process it resets and I’ve only got 3 apps allowed. I have Screen Time set to sync between all my devices. I’m just using it for myself. Thanks for any help you can give.
