On my app, Urban Bounty Hunter bg is using Criminal/Spy BG for Suggested Characteristics. I've tried changing to Criminal and back as well as changing to a different one but Urban Bounty Hunter doesn't show the correct characteristics.
The SCAG suggests using the Criminal background tables for Urban Bounty Hunter:
Suggested Characteristics
Use the tables for the criminal background in the Player’s Handbook as the basis for your bounty hunter’s traits and motivations, modifying the entries when appropriate to suit your identity as a bounty hunter.
Also, you can always edit the text itself after you choose from the tables.
I thought they had their own entries.... I've seen them floating around online though I didn't know if they were official. Seems weird that Criminal and Urban Bounty Hunter would be lumped together. I don't see UBH casing places and valuables, I see it more like remembering faces or Debts.
Though I guess DNDBeyond uses that suggestion from SCAG.
DnDBeyond uses the official published sources, as per their contract with WotC. I don't doubt people have made different lists online that may be better, but since they weren't official, DDB wouldn't have them for the official background.

Anyway, thanks for the information @naruhoodie :)
