Are you sure this bug lies with SmartTube? Have you tried searching from a vanilla browser window with no extensions installed? Various extensions like content blockers and client mods (i.e. Revanced) can disable sending search history to Google, in which case it will never be able to sync back to SmartTube.

I have the same exact issue since the last 2 updates.

Probably, it won't be fixed since we're using the tv api. This tv version won't show the suggestions at all, as I know.
