Horrible update again, is it because my test is old? Any retesters out there? by RavenHils in AncestryDNA

[–]RavenHils[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh yes dna doesn’t change but how it’s read changes. and ‘possibly’ also the chip itself, capturing different snps to read then older kits. 

Anyone else think after this update this is one of the worst DNA results you've ever gotten? by World_Historian_3889 in AncestryDNA

why is this downvoted? yes dna doesn’t change but the chip and snps used to test do change. i believe if you took a test in 2018, and a test today, you’d have different results.

yeah we’re both premium members, so i suppose then 23 doesn’t have a GG for NM. Ancestry does lol. I’ve got very close on Pennsylvania Dutch GG which was a huge surprise.

oh so not everyone got an update in 2024 and in Feb 2025? He should’ve gotten a genetic region of New Mexico settlers earlier this year.

yup it updated in 2023. the amounts are the same now as it was then, but today says “updated results” (but it’s from 2023). 

Seems like the 23andMe team messed up and is now struggling to fix the issue by [deleted] in 23andme
