I invited my wife, everything is fine… but she is unable to edit/customise kids accounts. Simply no accounts to edit in her app
My daughter has just tried setting a custom app icon - but although it displays several to choose from, pressing them does nothing. This is on an iPad - is anyone able to try this on another device and see if it’s just her or a wider bug?
I’ve lost my golden ticket invitation. Anyone know if there’s a way of getting it back?
I think they’ve all gone - perhaps it means the public launch isn’t far away?
meanwhile, if anyone fancies seeing what some random people in shiny suits think kids might want in bank accounts, this week’s Apprentice may be worth a watch:
Next week’s, even 
close enough!
Hey everyone! 
I’m Haz, and I joined Monzo a few weeks ago as a Lead Product Manager. I’ll be taking over from @Sarahm and leading the Under 16s squad - I’m really excited to work on such an important product and help set up the next generation for financial success! Couldn’t wait to jump in and say hey.
A small update: We’ve taken down the Under 16s waitlist. Now, anyone eligible can sign up straight away. This also means Neon Ticket referrals have now ended. We’re excited to hear what the next wave of parents and guardians think about Monzo for Under 16s—but we still want to hear from you too!

Is the additional parent/guardian function live for all as well?
I have it from the form before but I have been asked by other parents if its out yet for them in the past.
Really appreciate the addition of children’s accounts. We have these setup for our kids and they can view their balances via the app on their tablets.
I hope more can be done to add further interactivity to the accounts. I’d love to see the addition of ‘gamification’ to encourage kids to do tasks, or complete chores to unlock portions of their pocket money each week. I’m not sure how this works in other apps (Go Henry for example?) I’m sure others will have experience on the other options out there.
I wonder if this would be fun for kids, and help parents too.

@HazMcQuade you might want to have a look at this idea?
@l33t - we’ve now rolled out the functionality for an additional family member to all customers today!

Does that mean those of us on TestFlight for that can leave TestFlight now? I prefer the more stable releases
Feel free to leave @Mrberry and you’ll still have access to all the co-adult features. But know that we’d love to keep you on TestFlight!
The final TestFlight build is the one that goes to App Store so is just as stable, it’s just that it’s available a week earlier. Having more folk on there means we can gather feedback before it gets released more widely. You can also turn on auto-updates via the TestFlight app which should make staying on the latest and most stable build super-easy.
But either way, thanks for signing up to test co-adults

Thanks for giving us the option to add another person to help manage the children’s account. Can I ask if there is a plan to allow the other person some more control, or at least allow the main person to specify the level of control available to the other person/parent?
The one option that comes to mind that would be good to have joint control over is the Spending Limit option. If one or the other parent is with the child shopping, allowing them to be able to quickly and easily adjust the spending limit would be brilliant.

Does this mean that if I setup the child account under my personal account I can also setup my wife with the same level of control and visibility? Or can this be tied to a joint account now too? Is there a post for this as this is something that’s held me off since launch
It’s not tied to your joint account. You invite the second person to give them visibility of the child account.
@mattwaddy Importantly, the second person can only add money to the child account, not remove money, so choose wisely who opens the account and who is added to it.

Thanks for clarifying, it would be great to see full parity of the access once set up rather than limited access for one parent. I guess adding to the balance is key, but still room for improvemen. I’d really like to see it integrated with a joint account too

It’s been mentioned before but it’s unlikely that someone else will be given access to the money in your personal account. The cash held in the kids ‘account’ is essentially YOUR money in a pot.
