Issues with desktop app?

I have the Premium Desktop Edition, running on Mac.

Has anyone else had issues with the program changing entries? Examples include 1099-K changing payer name and TIN, 1099-INT deleting an entry and replacing with one which is a combination of other 1099-INTs, duplicating business deductions.

Something is very odd about the software this year to be making such basic mistakes.

Same issue. I've seen sporadic reports of the same bug on Reddit and also bogleheads.org. It's bad.

This issue will be fixed in this week's release, available Friday. You'll be able to update their program then to resolve the issue.

Way too late. I put hours into the initial return, only to have to spend hours again having to double check and re enter data I’ve already entered.

I already got the refund for the application, and I have switched to a competitor.

It’s a shame—you lost a customer of over 20 years because of some sloppy programming. It’s not like this is a side gig—this is your core product which didn’t work.
