App Evolution (new look Monzo app): Feedback Megathread šŸ“£

It’s available in the old view but recently removed in the business account on the old view which is especially annoying as I now have to ā€œdo mathsā€ to compare my Xero total balance with my Monzo total balance.

That’s strange, it doesn’t work for me on Premium. There’s a total for the main account and a total for pots - the same as Overview. No wherever have I ever been able to see the total amount of money I’m holding with Monzo, or technically within my current account.

Whao, that’s a lot of Revolut accounts

I understand that but it’s just a bit too basic.

If monzo think I need to see my direct debits from this morning, then show all six. If they don’t, don’t show me any.

This kind of intelligence and usability was what made the monzo app great, but it seems to be lacking from Overview.

It doesn’t care they all came out today, it’s showing you the last 3 transactions, two card and one debit, which is 3, as designed?

@N26throwaway this is what I was responding to. Monzo isn’t showing a direct debit because it was out today, it’s showing it because it’s one of most recent 3.

Regular readers will know that I’ve got a bit of a theory that the redesign is needed before Monzo launches things like investments.

Perhaps new products are coming up and go live for the new screen is a required milestone for launch?

I have to say that I really don’t like it as it is.

Maybe the point isn’t clear. If Monzo claimed they showed today’s transactions, not just most recent, I’d understand showing all 6?

Remember when you said don’t be patronising the other day?

Anyway, if that’s what you took from what OP said then sure, why not.

See, I thought the same about the gesture being missing until I realised that back just does the same function, so I use the back gesture. It took some getting used to as I kept trying to swipe down but to me, it’s just as functional if not moreso to use back.

Unless this is an Android Vs iOS thing?

My android will swipe back on any page and any app. iPhone is a little more specific on what it can and can’t swipe back on.

I’ve just tested and unfortunately that doesn’t seem to work on iOS. It’s the X or nothing. The back gesture would work just as well and I’d be happy with that as well, although considering the Monzo app has so many swipe down gestures it would feel more consistent

Other accounts:
* Account £1.23
* Account £1.55
* Account    £0

Looks odd. Zero balance accounts should be rendered as "Ā£0.00" maybe? Or maybe as "Ā£0 " such that it is decimal point aligned.

Similarly in borrowing:

Borrowing 
* Loan      -Ā£100.12
* Mortgage   -Ā£10000

Makes it look like the loan is just as large if not bigger than the mortgage, when it is not true at all by 100x factor.

What happens when you go to the Trends screen via the navigation bar at the bottom of the app and then use the back gesture to try to get back to app home screen?

When I do this I get thrown out of the app.

Back gesture doesn’t work on this journey. Tapping back on home works fine.

Thanks. Wasn’t sure if it was just me. I’ll post it as a bug.

It’s the opposite really. There’s less of a change for someone going from the new to new with changes, than there is going from old to the new with changes.

I agree.

You can’t miss what you never had/experienced :man_shrugging:

Yes - most annoying, and one I missed off my niggles list. This is basic stuff.

Edit: monospaced font too for numbers.
