The little 'watching' symbol at the bottom of the page

[SrSteveOskowski]

Has it changed or did it always look like a mooncup and have I just noticed that now?

No, it's definitely changed.

I noticed it had changed today too! Wasn’t it a torch before? It looks like a screw now.

Oh yeah! It's like a weird funnel thing now lol

I thought that about the ‘threads I’m on’ icon.

I've noticed it's changed today too! Little moon cup I thought it now looked more like the filter symbol on Excel...

It was always a funnel but all of the icons have changed / been refreshed

I thought a shewee.

I'd just like to know how it works. I thought I could watch a thread without joining in but it just whizzes me back up to threads to which I've contributed. What's the point?

It does threads you have contributed to AND threads you have selected to watch.

It has always been a torch on the Apple app.

How do you select threads to watch? I think, "That's interesting", click on torch/mooncup and get straight back to threads to which I've contributed.

To watch a thread, on a mobile device, click the arrow at the top and it’ll bring up a menu. Then select watch this thread.

My first thought was mooncup too!

I've just selected some random smelly armpit thread, clicked on "torch" and...

...There I am! On bloody threads to which I've contributed.

Mumsnet: not so intuitive, I'm afraid.

Thank you!

Off to try it now....

And PS: Again, thank you xx

@LarryGreysonsDoor

Mwah!

Off to unwatch.
Couldn't give a flying about mattresses.

Thank you!

I'm on the mobile app and looks totally different. Very clearly a torch.

The more I look, the more convinced I am that it's definitely a mooncup.
It has the stem trimmed and everything!

It's a funnel which web developers seem to think we should all understand as "filter" - but watching and filtering aren't the same either. Grrr.

Most odd

I think it's a funnel. Would be a chuffing uncomfortable mooncup.
