This has been active for about a weekā€¦?

Only if you were on Beta. I assume this update is after the latest update for non-beta users.

Iā€™m a beta tester but I donā€™t seem to get the Beta iconā€¦

I believe Beta is for those who were part of the Monzo Beta (pre-current account) rather than for the App Beta testers (which is more of a Google thing, anyway).

The snow falls here after quite a vigorous (Android) shake. Works for both Personal and Joint Accounts too. Nice.

Is there anywhere to download the alt logo icons as pngs / svg?

Can the press kit please be updated @cookywook inc the weird iOS beta green?

Iā€™d love to know whatā€™s happened behind the scenes to make this possible. It almost seems like the app reinstalls itself, but I canā€™t see that being the case.

It think it works the same way as custom app icons work in launchers or icon packs. You always have the choice to customise your app icons.

If i had an icon pack installed, I could have extra choices:
