I own a realm with my friends. Two of them are Nintendo Switch players. Every once in a while there whole inventory just disappears. They don't die or anything. It's just, gone. When I use a back up to get the items back, the other friends who've made progress in the realm, lose their progress too, causing them to get frustrated. Please fix this bug so I don't have to keep using back ups.

We are still looking into the issue with player data changing or being lost at MCPE-55815.
If the issue is still occurring for you in the latest version (currently 1.16.1) please could you add any steps to reproduce the issue at MCPE-55815.
Also, if you have a copy of the world save available, you might like to share a copy of it for investigation.
On Windows 10 you can use the Export world feature.
On Android or iOS you need to use a file explorer to navigate to Device storage > games > com.mojang > minecraftWorlds
On Xbox or Switch the only way is to upload it to a Realm, and then download the world on Windows 10 or Android/iOS. (Please do not purchase a Realms subscription just to provide a world to us - but if you have a Realm already this may be a viable option if you wish to do so.)
If the world is larger than 10MB you can upload the world to OneDrive or a similar file sharing site, and then share the link in a comment at the main bug ticket at MCPE-55815.
Thank you for your help, and for your patience while we look into this bug.
