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

A minor bug which I didn’t find reported when searching the thread:

If I select manage account from the three dots for my joint account, it takes me to the section relating to my personal account. It works correctly if I select it for my personal account.

The font has changed on iOS as well. It’s looking like some of the design changes on the branding is coming through. It looks really nice.

Also I’m enjoying the horizontal swipe of pots. If it’s a long list, then it’s no different to what we have on existing Home Screen. I personally like the different card and gesture elements that make up the new Home Screen. Less boring than a long list. Good to hear the overall accounts total is coming back.

The font has changed on iOS for me too. It was the system font (San Francisco) but is now their own Monzo Sans.

Strangely, merchant names in the feed are still in the system font but the transaction values are not.

Edit: I’m finding lots of bits with the old font. I need to stop looking and annoying myself.

Doesn’t look too different from Tsb.

Purchase of TSB = mortgage book and credit cards acquired.

Ok so in the above example “Land & Property” is the rates we pay. I pay rates on my own house and then split the rates with my fiancee on her house. But as you can see when i search by the name of the retailer the bill splits payments dont show up against that retailer name when searched. Only show up once i search for payments to my fiancee

That £51.65, that’s you splitting/paying your part of their transaction, not them splitting/paying yours?

Maybe that’s the difference.

If it’s their Land and Property txn from their card/debit, it won’t show when you search Land and Property your side because you didn’t pay that merchant, they did.

You paid the person not the merchant.

So it kinda makes sense.

Not sure but assuming this is a bug @emmag: swiping back from any transaction in the ‘Latest activity’ / master feed takes me back to the Home/Overview screen, as opposed to back to the feed.

Well maybe this is getting into a another debate but i would expect it to work like that, wouldnt you not count that as spend with that retailer as opposed to spend with the other person? Thats how i think of it

For example if you bill split for mcdonalds wouldnt you want that to show in your trends as spend for mcdonalds?

Also just generally it should show in search because search works across the notes and tags for a transaction so no idea why it doesnt work here

I’ve noticed the font and colour changes, I quite like it! Also payee’s have new colours

There’s Monzo Sans, font fans

For the most part yes but I didn’t pay McDonald’s I paid X person, who paid McDonald’s so it does make sense the way the build is currently, however do agree it could be more transparent on the search side.

Is it expected for transactions paid for with virtual cards to not show in the new Latest Activity widget and to not show when looking at the full list with the widgets see all option?

Feels odd to not see the transaction unless I go hunting in the virtual cards feed separately. And even then think there’s a bug as the item didn’t show up for 24 hours

So I’ve noticed that Flex transactions show in the combined feed :tada:

What’s not so good is that, when you tap into the transaction, there’s no indication of the card or account you spent it from.

I kinda think that the transaction screen needs to show two new things, now that Monzo is a bit more complex:

  • The payment method used (Google Pay, card, virtual card etc)
  • Most importantly, the account the payment comes from (so “Monzo current account”, “Monzo Flex account”, “NatWest current account” etc).

Update! There’s now an option to dismiss this which I’ve duly used.

Happiness quotient: high.
