Monzo for Android - Teardowns & Deep Dives 👨‍💻

Not necessarily, there’s nothing to stop them going from 3.99.0 to 3.100.0, 3.101.0, etc.

There are possible maintenance releases too (3.9x.y), but let’s not kill the dream.

:rotating_light: 3.92.1 :rotating_light:

A maintenance release just dropped for :android:… hopefully to fix the online authorisation issue currently being experienced.

I forgot to mention that I checked the above maintenance release :point_up: There’s nothing in it as usual :pensive:

Todays the day for a new “proper” one though! :tada:

I downloaded it earlier, then looked at the playstore and it still has the 3.92.1 listed as the most recent :confused:

That’s weird, I’m definitely running 3.93.0 now and looking at the PlayStore details shows version 3.93.0

I’m signed up as a beta tester for the app in the Play Store - are you? This may explain a delay if you’re not a beta tester.

I’m a beta user and my app is on 3.93.0

Just the page on the playstore hasn’t updated for me so I can’t see what the new update message is.

Ah, I see. I’m looking at the Play Store mobile app info, not the web access:

If I check the web, it does indeed say 3.92.1 :man_shrugging: Even Google has platform parity issues :dizzy_face:

Hahah I see the same on my mobile too. Odd, but I’ll do a breakdown shortly regardless :slight_smile:

Assuming this is indeed true and imminent… what are we placing our bets on?

I’m scared to say. It has been a similar message for several weeks now so the hype is building.

I hope it doesn’t fall short of my expectations :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

I’ve decided it’s custom emojis

Then I can’t be disappointed if it doesn’t live up to the hype

Few bits to coincide with the annual report release (maybe - it seems to be overdue)?

Perhaps:

  • Dark mode
  • Connect virtual card to pot

Nothing more, I imagine.

Big :drum: roll for Credit Pots

1 Like

This is really the most underwhelming feature ever.

Not credit card?

“Credit Card”?

So pre-2021…

Credit Pot - where you can spend on your regular Monzo Personal or [cough] Joint account as normal and then choose to assign any spend to a credit pot, which has a pre-determined level of credit available with flexible repayment/APR terms. The more you pay back, the less the interest charged - but not on the usual monthly cycle like normal credit cards - over the long term, like the Monzo Loan repayment structure.

Genius.

I hope they do interest free for first 14/30 days but otherwise it sounds good

Dark Mode CARD - switch the app to dark mode and it automatically bills you £5 and sends you a charcoal card (metal is so 2020) with hot coral print
