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

[Alexxxxx (>50 categories pls)]

@emmag

The Pots view is also proving to be quite common feedback – I confess, not feedback I had expected! We’re thinking about what we could do here – using a vertical list uses a lot of real estate. We could instead offer choice, e.g. default to horizontal but allow vertical if that’s preferable for the individual.

Yeah, just want to say I love the horizontal view. Pots aren’t as high priority as accounts for me so very much in favour of less vertical space and easy quick checking of multiple with a horizontal swipe.

I’m greedy and want both.

I’m keen for the horizontal scroll to be the main view, but I’d like to tap to see all pots (and main account balance?) and be able to reorder etc from there.

Were you quick enough for a screenshot?

[JIMMWX (Village Idiot)]

Alas no

I’ve got them:

It goes by whatever colour the logo is.

I’ve a few in my list and just tested through them.

Is it just me or has the Monzo app (Android) just changed the font app-wide today? It seems to have, looking at previous Android screenshots.

And it’s most obvious with numbers/values, so I won’t be posting screenshots

Edit: It could have been the update to v5.6.1 last night that did it.

[Peter_G]

I don’t see it.

Was there a feature flag for new design fonts a while back? Phased roll-out / A/B?

[davidwalton (Award Winning Hot Coral Analyst)]

Hmmm… not sure.

It’s a very consistent change. As in - it’s everywhere. Unlock screen (‘Please unlock the app to continue’), Home, Trends, ‘Plus/Premium tab’, Payments, even Help.

I like it!

Edit - found it. The feature flag ‘creative_refresh_enabled’ has changed from ‘false’ to ‘true’ on my account (some time after I installed v5.6.1 last night?), so it could be a phased roll-out

Edit again - It seems as if it was introduced in-app in v4.53.0 (mid-October) but not switched on (for me at least) until today.

[Mickyc82 (Mike)]

Yes, new font arrived for me today. It’s smart!

Can you change the colour?

[AaronF (Aaron Fletcher)]

I thought the app had changed today , looks good

[Carlo1460]

I’ve no idea, I think it auto allocates your payees?

[Peter_G]

I fear I might be font blind. I see… nothing?

[MalaiseForever (Ethan)]

Same here on iOS, if it has changed its very subtle.

[Carlo1460]

Don’t feel alone. I don’t see much difference, but I’m not in and out of monzo all day so probably haven’t picked up.

[Ashton]

All mine are the same colour lol, it’s all a dark grey/light blue so thought they’ll be a way that I just haven’t noticed to change it or it’s standard colour but since others have multiple colours I must just be odd one out

[Carlo1460]

[davidwalton (Award Winning Hot Coral Analyst)]

Here’s an example of ‘new font’ (or ‘creative_refresh’):

[Peter_G]

Oh that is different. I think I’m still stuck in the flag is off territory:
