Cupid's Corner profile not displayed as it was set up when playing other sims

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.108.329.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Make one Sim create their profile on Cupid's Corner, choose a profile picture and the traits to display. Go into another household, and try and find the Sim on the app. The picture you set up and the traits you selected are not displayed, a default randomly generated picture and randomly choosen traits are displayed instead.
What happens when the bug occurs? Everytime.
What do you expect to see? I expect to see my Cupid's Corner set up exactly as I did no mather which household I'm playing, as I'm creating the profile, it should be displayed the same way when other sims find it on Cupid's Corner.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

See the screenshots attached: the profile as my Sim set it up, then the profile when another Sim found him on Cupid's Corner.

    Hi @Down-in-Simsland,

    This is actually functioning as designed. If you were not seeing the information you selected on the profile page save properly when playing as the Sim who set it, that would be an issue.

    This doesn't make sense, I really don't understand this design choice. It really makes setting up your Sim profile useless, as you choose who you match while playing your Sim, it's then purely cosmetic.

    When you play multiple families and for storytelling purposes, that would be better to take into account what was set-up: for exemple hide a trait you don't want to be displayed, and let the other Sim learn it through a date, potentially changing the attraction score. 

    It really don't make sense that also, as the background is random my Sim appears in Sixam in his profile picture and not his home world. That's really immersion breaking.

    Hi @Down-in-Simsland,

    Thanks for the feedback, and I agree that I would like them to be visible regardless of which Sim is currently in use.

    I'll pass this along to the team.

    @EA_Cade Thanks for passing it on. Unfortunately this seems like another instance where rotational play was overlooked, and I hope this can get fixed since it can somewhat affect gameplay - for example if your sim wants to hide a trait from potential matches in other households.

    Adding onto my previous comment since the more I think about it - isn’t this the entire point of creating your sim’s profile?! Why would you bother to do so if it doesn’t affect anything at all? I’m so confused by this.

    To the sims team: please fix this in a future patch! I’m impressed with how many game features have gained more significance with recent updates and packs but this one aspect is really lacking.
