We’re excited to introduce a new feature that makes browsing trending content on mobile devices easier.

Now, when you're reading a thread, simply swipe left to move directly to the next trending discussion. If you’re enjoying discovering new threads, keep swiping, and you’ll continue to see the latest trending topics effortlessly.

When you visit a thread for the first time, you will see a message on the right hand side explaining how to use the new feature. If you select ‘Got it’, you will not see it again. If you choose to ignore it, you will see it 3 times before it disappears.

This feature is designed to help you explore popular conversations more easily while keeping the experience smooth and seamless.

We will be staggering the release of this, so some of you may not have access to the feature today, but if you don’t, don’t worry you will very soon!

We’d love to hear your feedback or answer any questions—feel free to share them below!

It's a pain in the arse. Can we turn it off? I'm fed up of half reading something and then it thinks I've swiped left, puts me on some random thread I don't want to read and then it won't go back to what I was on when I go back!
If I wanted to read the next trending then I'd choose to myself!

Can we just ask how you're trying to go back to the previous thread? Are you using the back button in your browser?

Thanks so much for the extra details. We're discussing this now and will post shortly.

Morning, everyone. We're really keen to improve this for you all.

If you're having these issues with the 'swipe' could you tell us what device and browser you are using. And if you are able to, a screen recording of what's happening would be extremely helpful. If you don't want to post that here you can email it to contactus@mumsnet.com and just pop a post up here to nudge us to look out for it. Thank you! Flowers

This has been driving me mad all night. I use an iPad (rotated) to read Mumsnet and every time I try to enlarge the screen I get a 'Something went wrong' message that I can't remove. I think I had seven at one stage last night! Maybe it's just me being stupid, but its very annoying!

Hello

Thanks for uploading those.

We haven't yet found a cause for this, but the error should only appear for a few seconds at a time. It can be closed by clicking the close button.

If you continue to have these issues, please could you let us know?

And anyone else who's accidentally swiping, could we ask you to let us know which device you're using (the specific model please) and which browser? Thank you.

@VimesandhisCardboardBoots thank you - we are working on a fix for this and will update you ASAP.

We are also looking into the issue that some of you have reported on Android -where you click 'back' after swiping and it doesn't take you to the thread you were previously on.

We'll be back soon when we have further info. Thanks for your patience.
