I'm not, which makes it much more difficult to monitor now.

Just look for the yellow-orange triangle instead. It will take a little getting use to but eventually we will. But would have preferred no change, but that's not the way web designers operate.

Schedule changes rarely happen outside of the weekend updates, so I find weekly is sufficient.

Yes, I do see the language in red at the top, but still would be nice to get an e-mail notification so I don't have to check all the time.

Don't even get me started on this. I had a significant change on an international out of South America with not only time changes but was re-routed through different cities. No email, no nothing! Stumbled into the change when I happened to be looking at some of my up coming flights I had booked with UA on my app. And no there was no alert message on the app either. Seems UA canceled my route after I had booked it.

Is United Playing Funny Buggers ...
Booked 3 tickets on UA2247 SMF to IAD for 12/29. Went to book another ticket but flight no longer exists!
Instead a 2 hour later flight is for sale with a different flight number!
So did they move my original flights and not told me or cancelled it without telling me? Or something else?

Please confirm that you do not have a typo in your OP. I show UA 2247 on 12/29 as operating SFO-IAD.
What is the original flight number and time and what is the new (now available) flight number and time?

Resolved ... kind of.
And it shows flying from SMF on a non-existant flight.
Called up United. Nobody can explain what's going on but they did agree the flight is not going from SMF.
They booked me on the 11:30pm flight from SMF and got a very nice compensation of an e-certificate for future flights.
