Seconded on iOS.

Purple mode is battery killer mode

I thought you’d turned it off because it hurt?

I have noticed similar… 1hr 33m on screen time (2m background) and it has taken 26% off my iP13 PM

That’s from yesterdays usage :wink:

Besides I’m repping this mode as my profile pic instead

Same, Monzo in last 10 days has used 2%… in the last 24 hours, 7%. The 7% is with 30 mins screen time and 2 mins background.
iPhone 13 Pro Max…

You really like to use Monzo

Maybe it’s higher from all the force closing and opening to see if it had launched?

Hahah, I do!
It’s not usually that high… I was testing out dark mode and it’s my payday (woo). Was doing some manual changes included making new pot images :sweat_smile:

FINALLY!!! I’m so happy about this

Unsure if this is what you’re already highlighting but calling out here just in case it’s not…
@dylanslewis - maybe one to add to the list? :point_down:t3:

On iOS: View your credit score within Monzo app > scroll down and select an article under the heading ā€˜Learn more about credit’. These open within the app (not an integrated browser page) so would expect to also match the dark mode theme.

That’s not the kind of thing I was highlighting, just a missed bit of the app that hasn’t yet been redesigned for Dark Mode.

I was thinking more about when the app opens an integrated browser to display pages from the Monzo website.

It would be possible for these pages to all support light, dark and auto mode too - but it would require changes to the code of the webpages, rather than code in the app.

The good thing about that is it can be a server-side update to the website, the bad thing about it is that it’s a whole project in itself!

Got you. It definitely makes sense and would be a great thing to add for continuity and for my eyeballs at night.
But like you said, it’s a big piece of work. For now, I’d much rather resource polish dark mode within the app itself and then focus on other product features like paying for plus/premium from a pot (pleeeeease).

Assuming that Monzo use a standard style template for their webpages, it’s probably not a massive amount of work to create a ā€œdark versionā€ of that - but then you have to check literally every webpage for oddities, like they have with the app. You also probably need to re-render a dark version of various graphics and so on, so to do it properly is a lot of work.

They could prioritise the common pages that the app links to and leave the rest of the website for later, and that would be a more achievable target which might be possible for the full launch of app Dark Mode.

Couple of things I have noticed.

Upgrade invitation on current account looks OK but the Business Pro identifier sort of ā€œdisappearsā€ into the background at the bottom.


The transaction option toggles also need similar work.

I do very much like the midnight blue themed dark mode overall though.

Looks like some help articles are still pretty bright too. This is the ā€œFind out moreā€ on getting paid early.

Yeah that’s a rare one but good to see it. Sounds like the servers have thrown a proper strop for them to put that in the feed

I have this shading issue also, was just going to post about it then seen this post.

I see this quite often - at least every other day. Being on a different network doesn’t help and I was getting it before upgrading to a 13 Pro Max. If I just quit and go into it again it’s always OK.
