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

Making Monzo

Thank you for highlighting this. Very much agree. We’re planning on updating these sections in the coming releases. Plan is to make use of newer components, condense the lists of actions, and removing duplicate actions.

You’ll see from the top half of the screen we’ve put effort in to understanding mental models and looking to contextualise where we put actions. The intention really is to move away from “a list of everything”, remove the clutter, make things super contextual, and really more engaging to interact with.

So please do keep those comments coming as we continue to iterate on this!

Having pots under the accounts would be better for me, and then transactions, then all else.

Which long press on flex, it pops out as though could move, so I guess if I was a Plus customer I could move this between other accounts, just not the main one?

Amazing. Yes the actions at the top of the screen feel much better; rather than a long list.

Obviously this is in labs but I can’t express how much closer to what I consider Monzo to be (a centre for my finances) this already is.

Definitely keen to do this one! We’re going to be considering this as part of a larger point on customisation, we want you to really be able to refine Overview to work for how you want to see your finances in a lightweight way

Looking good! Although, I do miss having my Left to Spend bar on the home screen! Perhaps this could be shoved in the account pill somewhere?

This is something we’re putting some thought in to. At a high level, how can we ensure that the information being displayed is as contextual and relevant to the individual as possible.

One of the areas we’re digging deeper is whether ‘Trends’ can be leveraged more within the overview.

So for example IF you have set a budget within Trends, can we leverage key data and show at a glance how you are getting on. But if you don’t manage your money in that way, then ensure there is no extra clutter on the screen. A fine balance, but ultimately give you more control so overview is super personal to the individual.

I’ve had to have a lie down in a dark room without internet.

Expect a whole host of thoughts :soon:

First impressions is I love it, like seeing my personal account, joint account and flex balance all together. Not keen on pots from joint and personal account added together, would like a separate balance please monzo.

Left to Spend is one of those things, that makes Monzo, Monzo. Really important visual aid to have a decent understanding of what is disposable v what is needed to meet the bills.

I’d argue that’s what your main balance is, everything else to be paid from pots thus anything in main account is to spend.

More great work, thanks, I’m looking forward to seeing how this evolves.

Left to Spend being brought to the forefront would be my one big ask, I love that feature and is more important to me than other stuff

They’re one of monzos biggest selling points. You can use left to spend, or just budget and move everything to pots.

I don’t recall seeing any focus on left to spend, but moving money to pots etc is all over the socials at the moment to help with budgeting.

I’ve never used left to spend. Revolut has similar and I used it for a bit but its off now.

It’s easy for something to be left off left to spend. It’s not if it’s out of sight out of mind.

Edit: very left to spendy here but my point is out. :upside_down_face:

Left to spend was trumped by bill pots.

But with targeting coming soon, maybe it’s more accurate to replace it with “Remaining before you hit your target” or something a lot better than that, but in the premis.

Going to be the outlier, never used left to spend, so works for me as is!

I transfer money where needed, and my balance is always my “left to spend”

Loving the new look. The little circle showing goal progress on pots is a nice touch.

Echoing the whole keep the left to spend, and importantly the days remaining bar!

One thing I’d like to see is the virtual cards split out in the same way the connected accounts are.

A total balance on the connected accounts would be nice too although if there are multiple currency types I can see how that might be an issue.

Having used this for a short while I keep getting stuck in the old carousel screens after clicking through to the account details. In this situation pressing HOME does not return me to the overview which is what I am expecting to happen. Also when pressing HOME at the bottom of the overview screen I am expecting it to return to the top…

@caribo are you on iOS or Android?

Something to help differenciate the difference between which account the money was spent on, that isn’t just Personal/Joint would be good.

The little card that you get for a virtual transaction would work for me (TeamYello) but realise this wouldn’t work for people with double coral.

I used my Flex virtual card today, so surely I shouldn’t have this +£105? As it didn’t go in the first place?

Just switched back and it’s still there on the normal non-labs view too.

Order is still showing in my Flex tab. I don’t often remember to use the virtual card but I’m sure it doesn’t always do this.
