Problem with read threads not changing colour...

Ok MN, so now you've fixed the problem with bookmarking Grin. For some time now, when I've read a thread, it temporarily changes colour, to show I've read it, then will change back to 'unread colour' at some point and then I'm reading a thread again that I'm not interested in because the title wasn't memorable enough for me to remember. First world problem, I know.... I'm using Chrome on laptop.

It does it on my iPhone app too.

fuzzyfozzy · 24/04/2018 13:42

iPhone and app

QueenCity · 24/04/2018 18:38

iPhone and iPad app.

TimMumsnet · 25/04/2018 09:24

Hi guys, thanks for bumping this issue on the app - you're right, it's something that needs addressing, and I'll prioritise it this week. Apologies for the delay!

Panda81 · 25/04/2018 22:20

Looks pretty unanimous, I'm iPhone app too

mummabubs · 26/04/2018 06:52

Just done it again for me, also iPhone app user.

Panda81 · 27/04/2018 16:56

Angry again

NinaMarieP · 27/04/2018 22:30

And again.

fuzzyfozzy · 29/04/2018 17:55

Again iPhone and app

mummabubs · 02/05/2018 07:40

Yup, again (iPhone app)

EstherMumsnet · 02/05/2018 09:51

Tim is still looking into this, I promise!

TimMumsnet · 02/05/2018 10:39

Hey guys, thanks for your patience, on Monday we released a fix for the viewed threads issue on the iOS Talk app 🎉 It appears to be stable, so go ahead and download it here.

As usual, let us know if anything doesn’t look right!

NinaMarieP · 02/05/2018 16:53

Woohoo! I've downloaded it so fingers crossed that's the ends of the resets!

Thanks.

Panda81 · 02/05/2018 18:24

Thanks @TimMumsnet ! Fingers crossed... but we will definitely let you know if we have any more problems 😂

mummabubs · 04/05/2018 22:53

Thank you @TimMumsnet !!

Queencity · 08/05/2018 19:06

@TimMumsnet Just wanted to let you know so far, so good! Thank you very much for fixing. I've not had any problems since downloading the update. Smile

TimMumsnet · 08/05/2018 20:39

You're so welcome! Glad it's working Smile

GreyhoundzRool · 09/05/2018 16:29

This had dropped off my radar. Sorry to say it's still happening for me - but I'm using iPad safari but not the app. Sorry - I had given up on a fix so hadn't bothered checking back very often

mummabubs · 13/05/2018 06:23

@TimMumsnet It's not working anymore! 🙈😩 I downloaded the update for the app and all seemed well but both my watching and read have just done it again. (iPhone app user).

FlissMumsnet · 14/05/2018 10:10

Hi Everyone,

We're so sorry to hear this is still happening - our Tech lot are having trouble pinpointing exactly what's going on here but we will chase this again today for an update.

We know it's a pita so here's some Cake

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 14/05/2018 10:12

What's private browsing?

TimMumsnet · 14/05/2018 10:19

@mummabubs ah that sucks!

So to be certain, is it showing threads that you've already viewed, that haven't had any extra posts, that are showing as unread (white speech bubble)?

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 14/05/2018 10:23

I've got it, it's the same as incognito mode.

mummabubs · 14/05/2018 19:26

Yup @TimMumsnet. I first had this issue back when I joined in January 2017 and it's stuck with me ever since! :(

cupcakesandglitter · 14/05/2018 19:34

Same happening on the app too! All show as unread and hidden posts annoyingly come back up all the time
