Can I Revert to Previous Version of UI (Pre Oct 2018)?

[Nancy Havnen-Storey]

The latest UI mods are severely impacting my ability to use Zephyr and just basically causing me a ton of frustration!  Ideally, I would like the option to use the previous version of both Jira and Zephyr, but I would settle simply for Zephyr if that is possible.  It would have ben wonderful to have had the option to accept the changes or keep the current view.  The UI was just updated no more than a year ago I believe and I was finally getting used to that (which was not easy to adjust to).  When will it stop?  Sometimes changing things isn't always an improvement and this definitely was a bad idea.  

Please advise.... Thank you!

Hello @Nancy Havnen-Storey,

You can't go back to the previous version of Jira, but it's possible for Zephyr: Switching Back To Old UI From Default ADG UI. You may need to reach out to your Jira admin if you don't have enough permissions to go back to the previous Zephyr version.

Hope this helps!

OK thank you. I don't have admin rights as I am just a contractor on this project.  What a bummer.  I am typically ok with change, but these changes are proving more challenging than others to accept.  I am super frustrated.

The admin rights are just needed to update Zephyr - it may have already been updated. Have you checked if the Preview Beta ADG Style for Zephyr option is available in Tests > ADG UI (still refering to Switching Back To Old UI From Default ADG UI)?

Thanks, I don't have the authority to revert back for all Zephyr users on our team so I guess I'm just stuck with it.  Thanks for responding with a solution though!

No, there is no way to go back.

I'm afraid when you chose to use Cloud, you signed up for a service where Atlassian will roll out changes regularly and frequently, mostly without any opt-out option.
