I have been contributing, just changed my name to prevent being outed over something!

I Opened the app today and all my green is now purple!

I don't understand what you mean

@Cactusowl

I Opened the app today and all my green is now purple!

I was just coming to say that!

@BentBastard see my images!

But I STILL haven’t got the app, in green or purple

Weird. Mine is same as usual. Just checked

Here you go...

I get a log in screen on the app, click to log in and tells me no. Have now deleted it and am downloading it again to see if it makes any difference.
I have noticed the app logo is now purple rather than green though.

Oh, everything has changed. The website has had a makeover too.

Twitter logo also changed colour. Looks like a rebranding in process

I reinstalled the app. Clicked on log in and got the rollout message. Clicked on register and it went straight to a screen to do just that...

From there managed to click log in again and enter my details. Got into the app, but my shop wasn't there. Clicked on edit and got stuck on spinning fruit cogs with a loading logo. Restarted app and now stuck on 'logging out'.

What I don't understand is how the app can tell me it's only being rolled out to certain customers before I log in. It doesn't know who I am. I've even tried to log in on 4g in case its tracking my IP but that doesn't make any difference.

Despite the stock email I have a big order (£300 worth for 2 households) coming today with no missing items or subs which I'm really pleased about given last weeks Waitrose fiasco

My App is still green, wonder whats going on there. Remember when they colour coded us all during the first lockdown, everyone had a different coloured line/van waiting to get onto the site!

It just let me into the app, for the first time ever. I could see my orders etc. Then a page flashed up saying the app was being rolled out to a number of customers at a time and I should continue to use the website. Very strange.

Why do you all keep getting my hopes up?

Saw all the purple excitement yesterday, checked, updated app, held breath.

Nope.

Nothing. Except eternal logging out thingummy.

Website doesn't look any different, either.

No subs or missing items today

Found my app has also turned purple this morning.. Was wondering what it meant!

My app still doesn't work, it just sends me to the website.
My last order only had two subs, which were sensible. It's more the stuff that's out of stock for orders weeks in advance that's annoying - like basic basmati rice - which sometimes comes back into stock if you log on the next day. I guess supply chains are totally thrown right now.

My website has lots of purple detail on it today (except for the Ocado logo and the little green van).

They are even offering me a free slot on a Monday night!

Ooh my App has turned purple on the last couple of hours

Has anyone else noticed that they no longer stock Eden meats? The mega burgers and sausages were the best.

My app is still green, so you have auto App updates on your phones?

I am now purple!

Still no app ...

I hadn’t, though I generally only bought them on offer. There have been a lot of stock changes in fresh meat. Try Jolly Hog sausages! They are excellent.

My app is green but webpage is purple!

Oh the thrills of January 2021

@osprey24 no Eden Burgers? they were fab, I hadn’t noticed this

Kitten, thanks I will try them. Peony, yes I agree and they were big enough to fill the bun too.
