What is the reason to not update the UI if you use Room directly with Compose: dao.get().collectAsState(emptyList()) with interface Dao { @Query(...) fun get(): Flow }? You have to use a ViewModel to get updates on DB changes. WA: wrap the collect in VM and emit them to the flow accessed by Compose...

dao.get() is a function, which means every time it is called you get a new flow, and it will be called on every recomposition. If you really want to use it directly in a composable function, you should use remember { dao.get() }.collectAsState(emptyList()).
