I tend to not use it as much, but lots of people spend time there daily, clicking through the various lists.

I'd like to see the Top 10, POTD, etc back on the board. I never go to the home

I have wished for a long time that 'funniest posts' was on the board in addition

I second that I would like it back.

Yep I really liked that feature.

Nice quick confirmation when in different time zones that my math is correct.

The countdown was a big help, please bring it back! For those of us

The game times are already given in your local timezone.

Even if using a vpn?

I know but I still really liked the countdown.

Agree. Used it all the time

I used the countdown. Loved it. If simple, please bring back.

Same. I check it all the time to know when games are. Countdown>google

I would like the countdown back. It was very helpful.

I looked at the countdown clock all the time. Liked it

Does upcoming events include club sports like rugby, lacrosse, & men's soccer?

CougarThug

2/13/20 3:26pm

It doesn't currently. None of those have an easy way to import their schedules.

El Jefe

2/13/20 3:30pm

Tell me what format you need for lacrosse schedule and I'll get it for you 🙂

I'm honestly a little confused about why there's a front page at all.

7 of 8 are good, but no countdown clock is bad for us not in Utah

The broadcast and live stats links come from what BYU publishes.

On a desktop or laptop or such it's easy to click on "mine" to see what's

lightmann

Click the "More" dropdown. It's in there.

El Jefe

2/13/20 6:18pm

Please don’t remove any of those filters!

TCuz

I'm not planning to, just simplify the UI

El Jefe

2/13/20 7:56pm

I miss the countdown clock(s). It reminds me of games and helps me convert times

TAMUCoug

2/13/20 6:35pm

I'm really confused by this. The site already converts the time for you.

El Jefe

2/13/20 6:42pm

I agree, I like it at the top of the Cougar Sports and Board pages. Now I have

The conversion doesn't work in certain browsers (i.e., TOR).

The Softball Icon should be Yellow, not white.

My IPhone doesn’t show the whole subject line. Is there a possible fix for that?

gwalker

2/13/20 8:41pm

Huh, apparently JCL isn't alone.

El Jefe

2/13/20 9:31pm

I have an older I phone. Maybe that’s it.

gwalker

2/13/20 9:42pm

What model, what version of iOS, and are you using Safari?

El Jefe

2/13/20 10:21pm

I have an iPhone XS and I can’t see the whole subject line while typing it

BYUCLA

2/13/20 10:23pm

Can you send me a screenshot?

El Jefe

2/13/20 10:27pm

I’m a dummy. I can’t figure out how to send you an image.

BYUCLA

2/14/20 12:25am

Are you just saying that your subject line is longer than the width of your phone?

El Jefe

2/14/20 7:07am

Yes. I figured it was not going to change, but thought that is what gwalker was

BYUCLA

2/14/20 8:05am

No, he's taking about the threads view

El Jefe

Latest iOS? That's 13, I believe.

El Jefe

2/14/20 3:47pm

It says 12.4.5 and when I check for software updates it tells me my phone is

gwalker

2/14/20 5:28pm

Okay, I should be able to check on that specific model and version

El Jefe

2/14/20 5:56pm

Loved the countdown timer. I’m pretty frustrated by its absence.

BYUCLA

2/13/20 8:45pm

One reason in particular is that I now have to check what the date is today.

BYUCLA

2/13/20 8:48pm

How dare you mess wit h tradition!!

Is it possible to select what upcoming sports are showing on the home screen?

It only shows 4 on the home page on your phone
