Ancestry SideView Technology to be Extended

[manukarik]

Mine's disappeared too! Back to a single list, but as parents both tested shows father's side or mother's side. Very strange - maybe too many complaints?

I too no longer have it via the website, but it's still showing via mobile app.

It looks as if the majority of us have lost the facility.

Phil,  how were you viewing it  - android or ?

I used Firefox and Chrome.

Chrome on Win 10. I've just opened the Android mobile app and I still have it there as well, can filter by maternal, paternal, both sides or unassigned.

The android app has the same background image as the pop-up box I got in Chrome, with the two circles moving away from and back towards each other.

They must be re-rolling it out then.

After reading this thread, I looked in "groups" to find my maternal and paternal as assigned by Ancestry. The number of matches had shrunk considerably on both sides.

The number labelled has shrunk to just the ones I labelled myself, all the ones labelled by Ancestry have disappeared. I can search by Mother's side and father's side through groups. But have lost the ability to search for matches labelled both sides (labels I added myself but Ancestry wanted to label only father's side - the relationship on father's side is closer, mother's side is 7th cousin)

I'm not so sure Gadget. This morning, mine and the person whose test I manage have all disappeared too

Yes, same here. All disappeared on all three kits I manage. Their communication on the release and now withdrawal of this feature has been very poor.

I've just completed one of their questionnaires on this. It's under the heading of this paper link:
