Flagged Photos on Lightroom Mobile not showing in desktop app

I love the idea of culling photos from my phone, then editing them on the desktop.  However, I have selected 200+ photos as "picked"in a collection.   When I open the desktop application only 146 of these are shown as picked.  The number still shows correct on my phone.    How do I sync these so I don't have to go back through and figure out which ones are missing?

This unfortunately has happened on a few other galleries also.

    I think that flags and such in Lightroom CC on mobile OS do not sync reliably to Lightroom Classic. They only are supposed to sync to lightroom CC on the desktop.

    I'm sure they are supposed to sync to Lightroom Classic as well. Synching flags has been an option from the very beginning of Lightroom Mobile, when Lightroom CC Desktop didn't exist yet. But I agree that sync from/to Lightroom Classic isn't always as reliable as it should be.

    Thank you!  Downloading Lightroom CC and hoping it corrects this issue!
