Oh no. I hope youāre on the mend!
Itās just a super bad cold, that floored me.
I want to tap like but it feels kinda inappropriate.
Lots of that going around here, too
Issue: cannot launch Monzo, because no icon and no launch button on Play Store. App still shows as installed in settings
Go to Play Store and try to launch. Following screen
OS: Android
Device: Xiaomi Redmi 4
App Version: beta 2.19.1
This is a known change:
As itās not a bug Iām going to merge into the change log thread
Would have been nice to have some notice of this!
Disappointed to see Chat has been removed from press and hold shortcuts. I know Monzo donāt want people to get on chat too often and use help section but this small change felt like they are creating unnecessary barriers just like some companies who present you with 20 options to choose on phone.
I agreeā¦ Thatās a shame! However I would hazard a guess to there being a slightly less sinister reason, itās probably because by holding the app icon pressing it takes you straight to the intercom section of the help chat thing as opposed to chat to a real human which lets you choose between urgent and non-urgent.
Skipping past that whole option mightāve made people wait longer than they had to (assuming the issue was a very urgent one)
It can be removed, therefore it can be added back with the same amount of effort we might see it return once monzo have their in-house chat option rolled out!
Version 2.20.0
Changelog:
Apkmirror: soonā¢ļø
Did the āit looks like youāll have some money left overā message disappear for anyone else after the update? Unless it disappeared for some other reason.
Havenāt seen that message all month
Iām sure I saw it a few days ago, but maybe Iām going slightly mad
You probably have, I meant I have had the opposite message.
Yes, I still have the message showing for me.
Just to pour salt into the wound @BethS mine says Iāve got over Ā£100 it of course wonāt be that at the end of the month!
I never even knew the other message existed #tragic
2.21.0 now available
Edit: APKMirror: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/monzo/monzo-bank/monzo-bank-2-21-0-release/monzo-bank-2-21-0-android-apk-download/
Version 2.21.0 is definitely available
Looks like I was beaten to the punch by a couple of minutes But in the meantime Iāve dug around and looked for new features
Pot Image Edits!
Click the settings cog on any of your pots and tap the photo! Sadly thereās no custom image uploads (yet) but itās awesome to be able to edit without deleting a whole pot just to alter the photo
Set a profile photo (again)
Looks like this was broken in Android 9.0 Pie but itās back again, you can upload, remove and take a new photo for your Monzo.me / Monzo-to-Monzo payments picture
(Anybody else think an 8-bit Monzo card would look hella awesome?! )
Under the Hood
You can definitely check the Slack channel for a full teardown of the APK but a summary of the changes this week is this; thereās been a LOT of changes surrounding Pots!
Not to mention Tabs! Looks like some changes to the contacts screen might be incomingā¦ Starred Contacts anybody?
And Iāll leave the rest as a surprise for the future
Version 2.22.0
Nothing on the surface for me yetā¦ But I know thereās some new things lurking
Scratch that! They added a new Monzo-Blue pot background colour
2.22.0 Changes
Iām going to make this a wiki so feel free to add to it until I close it
Blue pot background
Add to Google pay
Thereās a big add to Google Pay button. This is good however Iāve already added my card to Google Pay long ago so I donāt really need this.
