Exciting Suprise?

[Jays6]

Has anyone worked out what the suprise is yet. Had another update this morning but everything looking the same?

[phildawson (Sorry, I will have to escalate this.)]

I was assuming it’s the not so surprising a year in monzo 2020?

It was the Year in Monzo thing.

I also had that same update this morning. Weird the same release notes as Monday’s update were used if the surprise indeed was the year in Monzo thing.

I think it might have been an issue on Apple’s side, because i had a bunch of updates this morning that I am 100% sure had already been installed.
Brings me back to that time a few months ago that there was an issue with the app certificates (or similar) and Apple had to push the updates again?

There are rumours circling that the re-release of a lot of iOS Apps is to fix a workaround that worked on M1 Macs that allowed them to side-load apps that have opted out of being able to be installed on M1 macs.

It’s therefore assumed Apple repackaged + updated something within each app - which forced a new update.

Thanks for the explanation, I’ll keep wishing for dark mode

Does Year in Monzo constitute a surprise?
Hasn’t it been happening for at least two prior years?

[michaelw90 (Michael)]

Yes, but many new people have joined in the last year, that might not have experienced it before, or people may have forgotten.

I’m assuming it was Year in Monzo…

… but perhaps @AlanDoe or @cookywook could confirm?

[cookywook (Richard Cook)]

It was!

I was hoping it was Dark Mode
