Check your email inbox for an email to download your DNA data. The email can take up to 24 hours to arrive.

If you made multiple download requests, only the most recent email from Ancestry (associated with your most recent download request) will have a valid link. A download link can only be used once. It will expire after a week. If your link has expired, start over at step 1.
Click Download DNA Data.

Upload to MyHeritage

Create an account at MyHeritage. It's free to do this. You DO NOT have to pay for a website membership! The DNA tab is what we are interested in. The whole website membership is expensive and gives you access to all of its research materials. We want DNA.
Upload your raw DNA data which you downloaded from Ancestry or 23andMe. LInk:

When you log on to MyHeritage and click on the DNA tab, there will be an option to pay to use the DNA tools. If you haven't done so, please sign up. I'm hoping people did sign up for the tools on March 9 when they were free. Right now the cost is $29 to unlock the DNA tools. This is a one-time fee, NOT a per/year fee.
You can upload as many people's raw DNA as you like. I've uploaded 5 family member's DNA data under my one account.
