Lists sync between devices

I have some lists which I created via the iOS IMDB app. These don't show up when logged in to my account on the web. This is very basic functionality. How come it's broken?

@aleph2012 Your lists are synced between iOS and the site.  If this is not the case, it means you are logged in via two different IMDb accounts on your phone and web browser.  Please determine which is your main account and login to that one on the other device. 

Hope this helps.

Hello, I joined IMDB a long time ago. So I am still logging in with my original IMDB account, rather than some Google, FB, etc "linked" account. Curiously:

My Watchlist: Created 4 years ago • Modified 7 months ago

and

Ratings: (from 2001)

*are* synchronized.

What is *not* synchronized is my "Favorite People" list. If I were logged in to a different account I would expect nothing to be synchronized.

@aleph2012​ Thanks for clarifying. The favourites feature is exclusive to the IMDb apps at the present time, sorry, so that explains why it is not available on the site.  Which other lists are not showing on the site?

Everything else is good! I didn't realize the favorites list was a "special" list. Since it also appears in the lists section of the app, it's not clear from the UI that it's different from the others. Oh well.. it was worth a shot!
