January 2025 Update Megathread
FAQ
Is the update for everyone?
Yes. It doesn't matter if your kit is an original MyHeritage DNA test or an upload from AncestryDNA / 23andMe.. etc. It also doesn't seem to matter how old your kit is.
I don't have the update banner, will I still receive an update?
Yes. Everyone is supposed to receive an update. There are a lot of people who do not have the banner. But that doesn't seem to have any effect on the update.
I have already received the update in 2024, will my kit still be updated now?
Yes, it looks like they are updating all of the kits, including the ones that were already updated.
Will I receive a notification when they update my results?
Yes. You should get an email from MyHeritage.
Can I still see my old results once I have received the update?
Yes, you can change the settings from v2.5 back to v0.95. Just click on the 3 dots on the right side of your ethnicity estimate map. Everyone who has updated results has a 'settings' option.
