Uverse guide update?

So I come home from work today and notice the TV looks different. No more blue screen there's an actual picture in the background with the time showing kind of like the chrome cast. I also noticed that the font on the guide itself looks better. So I'm liking the changes but my question is where can I go to see update changes?

Is there some kind of patch notes somewhere or update notes of any kind that show all the recent changes/updates that were done?

@edwardmorgan - do you have any rollout timetable?  i.e.which market will get it when?  Provided the rollout goes as expected.

Honestly- other than type style and the clearer background, not a huge change. No faster getting to OnDemand or music.

I'm in SE Dallas county and haven't seen it.

Don't mess with old people.  The older we get, the less "Life in Prison" is a deterrent.

The one "feature" I really don't like that the old/current has is...

 

Watch any show at 2:58 PM that ends at 3 PM. Press any arrow key on the remote. It'll say: "Two minutes left." At 2:59, it'll say: "One minute left."

 

At 2:59, it previously said "59 secs left" then a few moments later said "32 secs left" and so on and so forth.

 

At 2:59.32, there is not "one minute remaining" of a show that ends at 3 PM.

Not in Indy, yet.  Too far North and in the evil Eastern Time zone, lol.

Finally got the update this morning, noticed the skip function is more accurate. It doesn't skip too far ahead into the programming like the last update.

Partially Uupdated in Indy.  I have 3 boxes.  One regular STB had it but the DVR, at least initially did not.  It took a reboot.

 

Screensaver is nice.  Not as good as similar images on my Amazon Fire TV box but decent.  The Press Okay, looks like an afterthought bandaid.

 

The time, FF/Rew bar is now thinner and is green and not blue.

 

The font.  I see how some feel it's modern while others don't like it.  It is VERY thin.  When inputting another channel #, even though it's still tall, it is thin.  It might be hard to see.  I jokingly mentioned "Comic Sans," in this or another thread.  It looks a bit like Comic Sans. 😞

Our DVR updated yesterday.  The cosmetic changes are fine, but the change to the fast forward speed is annnoying at best. For each level of FF the speed is cut in half and it is very jerky to the point of being almost unusable.
