I am not sure if this should be classified as a bug or not but it does seem like it shouldn't work this way. Leveled up to level 4 and was trying to decide whether to take the Alert feat or another one. I selected Alert and saved. I saw the +5 to initiative. Later on I decided to not take that feat and took another one. After I changed the feats I realized I still had the +5 to initiative. After I went back into the feat section I saw that I still had the Alert feat.
It seems that if the Alert feat was added because Ability Score improvement section, that it should have been removed once I changed that to another feat.

Did you do it on the app or the website?
Did you have the character open on a different device?

It could be you just have a good dexterity score. If it’s 20 then that adds a +5 to initative.
no more time for dnd
It was closed out of everything.
My dex is 10. My base init is +0
Once I went into the feats I saw that Alert was still there. I removed it and the init went back to 0
