On update, it makes me re-make a user account

I have Homarr auto update from Watchtower, when it updates it keeps all the boards and stuff, but it makes me add a new user every time it updates. I think I'm using persistent volumes right, but I couldn't find anything on it from anyone else unless I'm looking for the wrong thing so sorry if it's a dumb question This is my docker compose

services:
  homarr:
    container_name: homarr
    image: ghcr.io/ajnart/homarr:latest
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - ./homarr/configs:/app/data/configs
      - ./homarr/icons:/app/public/icons
    ports:
      - '7575:7575'

services:
  homarr:
    container_name: homarr
    image: ghcr.io/ajnart/homarr:latest
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - ./homarr/configs:/app/data/configs
      - ./homarr/icons:/app/public/icons
    ports:
      - '7575:7575'

Solution:

Hi @rad , please read the update guide. You are missing the database volume / mount. Hence the data is not being persisted
