App Evolution (new look Monzo app): Feedback Megathread 📣

Hi Richard, thanks for sharing this.

Have you opted into “External account customisation” in Labs? If not, you’re likely in one of our experiments to test how we enrol customers with connected account into this feature.

You should also have had a full screen message explaining the change and a carousel message like the one below. Could you let me know if thats not the case?

Can I also just check you’ve tried holding the horizontal slider bars on the customisation screen? If that’s not working and you didn’t receive those messages, we might have a bug

Thanks for taking the time to share this feedback. Could you share some more examples of the actions you’re finding more difficult or are taking more taps to complete?

I’ve shared a few of the extra features we’ll be building further up this thread - for example we’ll soon let you customise the number of transactions you see in Activity

Never going to happen.

There are people like yourself that don’t like it, but those sorts of opinions are visible because people like yourself register to voice it. Nobody is going to join to say they like it.

There was a poll a while back and it was clearly in favour of the new.

Really great point, I agree!

The new account views are coming very soon
we should be able to share an early version of that experience via Labs in the next couple of weeks, for the community’s feedback.

While the points @N26throwaway have made are valid there’s also more to it, for me anyway.

My frustrations aren’t around being thrown back to the old view in places, but rather that some of the new view/functionality just isn’t as good.

Namely, not being able to view all my pots in one place, and no longer having the Red/Amber/Green left to spend bar (with the little days remaining notch), that’s based on my balance rather than a target. Granted that might be a trends issue but it’s one that’s being surfaced in the home screen’s new look.

Other than that I’m enjoying the new look but those are two major points that let it down for me.

New “Do More” button giving the same options as the + at the top of the app. (Not sure I’ve seen it before today).

It’s new, and mentioned in @davidwalton new teardown this evening. More interesting stuff going on though if you haven’t seen :eyes:

Can’t we search for Flex transactions anymore? I can only search Personal and Joint accounts. Why does this feel so half-baked day by day.

I really hate the search currently. Why have they lumped personal and joint into the unified feed, but then separated them when it comes to searching?!

Id like to have the option to revert back to seeing all my pots in a list here rather than having them combined into 1 savings figure.

Saves taps

Is one hidden?

No 2 are set to visible with about 4 others hidden.

Since the Investment go live and the change of this section from “Savings” to “Savings & Investments” a few weeks back it now shows an aggregated Savings for all pots which i find pretty pointless as i dont think of all savings pots together as combined Saving. I’d rather see each of the pots listed on the main screen/feed without having to tap in like it was previously.

I only have one but it shows like this.

Yeah it works fine for 1 pot, when theres more than 1 it combines into 1 as shown in my screenshots. Where i would like it to list them out like it was

I’d like them back where they were/should be but I’d take a second option of at least listing them all under investments

Hey everyone :wave: -

Just jumping in to share a new blog we’ve posted.

It shares more information on how we built the new Home screen from the pov of the squad working on it - see it here

It’s definitely not the same, but okay queen. Perhaps your time might be better spent understanding why people other than yourself are struggling with changes to UI/UX rather than dismissing them out of hand

The poll is not a representative view because you’re polling beta testers who are excited about change, rather than a cross-section of users who are used to certain flows or who have different experiences. Using tech-savvy people as your benchmark is a dangerous and undiverse standpoint.
