Why does "Push to sub-apps" appear to be stuck or still copying?

Bubble schedules sub-app copy operations rather than running them synchronously. The button's state reflects whether scheduling succeeded, not whether the copy completed — which can make it appear stuck.

When you push changes from your main app to sub-apps, Bubble schedules the copy operations rather than running them synchronously. The push button's state reflects whether the scheduling succeeded — not whether the individual copies completed. This means the button can appear to still be copying even after the process has finished.

What you might notice

  • The "Push to sub-apps" button still shows as copying after the operation has completed

  • There's no clear success or failure confirmation for individual sub-app copies

Workaround

The button resets automatically after 12 hours. To verify a push completed successfully, open a specific sub-app and check whether your changes are present. If they are, the scheduling succeeded and the push went through. If you're unsure whether an individual copy failed, you can safely push to sub-apps again.
