Jetpack Compose isn’t updating my user state since I implemented nested navigation.
After the user logs out I set my UserStateModel to null.

private val _userStateFlow: MutableStateFlow<UserStateModel?> = MutableStateFlow(UserStateModel())
val userStateFlow: StateFlow<UserStateModel?> = _userStateFlow

in my MainViewModel I’m collecting this state and i’m passing the user state down the hierarchy.
Before implementing nested navigation everything got updated accordingly but since I implemented nested navigation the change get’s lost somewhere inside my navigationGraph.
Anyone else faced this problem?

My MainViewModel:

private val _mainUserState: MutableState<UserStateModel?> = mutableStateOf(null)
val mainUserState: State<UserStateModel?> = _mainUserState

init {  
    viewModelScope.launch {
        authRepository.getUserState().collect() {
            _mainUserState.value = it
        }
    }
}

My MainActivity:

val userState by mainViewModel.mainUserState

and from there I’m passing this userState down the hierarchy

Is it this?

Yess thank you!
Is this supposed to not work? Or is it a bug?

I don’t know, it seems to be designed this way. It’s come up a few times but I have not seen any comment from Google.
