Ancestry enhancements

    I am sure, like me, you expect Ancestry to be working on providing more and better transcribed records in order to make research easier. I am finding small enhancements that are like 'tips' on how to use it, this is the latest.

    I went to look at a tree where I am a guest and was presented with this:
    upload_2021-9-30_11-55-40.png

    for curiosity sake I clicked on Next:
    upload_2021-9-30_11-56-17.png

    then clicked on Next:
    upload_2021-9-30_11-56-42.png

    Now that I know it's not telling me anything I didn't know next time I see this I shall simply click on the cross in the first window.

    For the record I'm not criticising their efforts to make the site easier to use but I do feel like they are making it 'Ancestry for dummies'.

    You won't see it next time. My tests indicate that it only shows up the first time you view a tree to which you have guest access.
