This is what I remember, only vaguely though 
feels like a lifetime ago, but don’t think it was actually too long ago?

I think it was like January 2018?

Not sure if this was there before, but since the latest app update, the “What’s New” area, under Help, Discover seems to have been updated.
The “What’s Next” tab now has a Budgets section. I remember Insights, Spending and Push Notifications mentioned before, but not Budgets. It might just be me though!

Oh exciting, new features mentioned in the “What’s New” section - but not actual new features!

To add, do you now get spend notifications in/out, or was budgets in addition to the other things you mentioned?
Notifications are (and have been for ages) in the “coming soon” section.
No evidence of them coming, although the OS permission for them is there - for chat use only so far.

So under What’s New I’ve got: Tags, Add your card to Apple Pay, and Restrict your card for gambling transactions
Then under What’s Next I’ve got: Insights, Spending, Budgets and Push Notifications

This is the thing that really irk’s me about calling it “what’s next” (not you, them 
) is that it’s super easy to be totally non comittal.
Those things have been “coming soon” for quite some time now

Except for tags (which launched a couple of months ago, I think) all of those things have been available since around February 2021, so they are hardly new any more!

Just to double-check with our friendly neighbourhood switchers here… to get the FD switching bonus, there don’t have to be any DDs in the ‘old account’ being switched, right? I can’t see any requirement other than ‘pay in £1,000 within 3 months’ on their website, but just thought I’d check.
Doesn’t mention direct debits in the T&Cs

Only the £1000 deposit and the use of CASS was the requirement for me - think that is still the case currently.

I’m pretty sure that’s new!
