Perhaps it could incorporate a swipe gesture on a transaction to reveal the balance at that point in time.
That’s a good idea!
If I get some time tomorrow I’ll rework the design to incorporate that and post it in this thread.

I like it, good idea in principle

Hmmm, yes I’ve seen this in other banking apps before but I’ve never, knowingly, ‘used it’?
Not to say my brain hasn’t processed it, but if I’m looking at my account I tend to want to know:
- What money do I have available to spend?
- Did transaction X happen and how much was it for?
Knowing the balance at each transaction is a little overkill for me and I think this offers a clutter without adding much value.
That’s just my usage though.

I strongly like this approach. A similar thought had occurred to me too!

Here’s the suggestion altered to include your idea.
I like the concept, but I’m not a designer by any means… The way I’ve done it doesn’t look the greatest in my opinion. Hopefully someone else can build off of these ideas though!

I like this. It doesn’t clutter the feed and is ‘discoverable’ (maybe not obviously mind you…)

It’d be nice to have the option to see what my balance was at any given point like the graph from the old app. Maybe something in settings that could change it from showing how much I’ve spent to what my remaining balance was next to the date. Who knows, maybe even have both.
Could you not just download a statement?
I think that this will return at some time. In the meantime, you can see this information by downloading a statement.
Allow us to see what a balance was after a transaction would be a nice touch. If you already can I certainly cannot find it.
What issue are you trying to solve?
It’s not an issue it’s just a nice touch for example click on a transaction and it says balance after transaction X amount I’ve come from barclays and it was a feature I quite liked in the app.

Apparently they did have this feature but then people complained for privacy reasons and they removed it. But I agree it would be so useful instead of constantly having to go into your account manually.
Solution - Please make it an optional feature!
Thank you

I think that if a person is using pots, they should be able to choose to enable it, as your total balance is usually not your total money, just the money you left not assigned to pots. Makes total sense in my opinion, but of course, I still think people should be able to choose whether to enable it or not.
Really?
Have you got a link so I can read it please? It would be interesting to read how it was justified

Doesn’t the “instant transaction” feature kind of negate the need for this?
I’m thinking along the lines of balance v available balance, which is what a lot of legacy banks have
"You have £1000 balance/£950 available balance etc?
Or am I miles off the mark?
It sounds like @ChrisMc wants a way to see their account balance (aka Monzo available balance) after a transaction is made.
Yeah that’s what I think too which is surely what Monzo does?
I think @ChrisMc wants to the ability to see the balance after any past transaction too.
You could do something like other banks where you can swipe against the transaction feed and see the balance after each transaction. It avoids adding more figures and cluttering up the screen but still provides the facility.
