Hey Remi, I’m an Android engineer working at Monzo. This is a very weird bug, I’m sorry about that. Were you using the Pride icon before that or another icon? Does changing icon again from the settings fix the issue?

Hello Romain 
That bug was gone in 2 days after I noticed it. So it’s fine now.
It was on Pride logo only

Admiring the Coutts flex 
Has anyone had today’s update? I see nothing 
So, I haven’t managed to work this out yet, but if I use my flex virtual card, and then don’t change the payment plan, what happens?
Results in 12 month payment option by default.
Don’t suppose anyone has the spare time and know-how to resume doing these teardowns? I used to love the sneak peaks of what Monzo are working on

Oooh, I hope that
<boolean name=“monzo_flex_application_open_banking_income_verification” value=“false” />
means that I can verify my salary now (or when they switch it on!). It currently goes into NatWest and the account has been around a few *cough* years and so doesn’t report to the CRAs (and I can’t get them to make it do so apparently), so it’s either that or I CASS my account out.
I wasn’t aware of the newsletter either

Now then, now then…
I also thought it looked ‘off’. So time for a photoshop analysis. Which reveals… 
It’s spot on.
Basically, the image (provided) is 880 pixels wide. The centre therefore is 420 pixels and 420 pixels slices right through the middle of the ‘Premium’ Icon. Then working things back & forward between the icons and you have exactly 168 pixels in-between the centre of the 5 icons. Pixel perfection!

Is there any indication on what the macro stuff all those developers at Monzo are working on at the moment? As they’re not really communicating that much anymore I don’t really have a macro “feel”. I remember that they’re porting Summary to Trends, and I am sure there’s various minor changes to Flex going on as it’s a money maker. But beyond that… what’s the big picture at the moment?

I don’t think there is one.
The few interviews that the new CEO has done aren’t illuminating and at a product level the emphasis seems to be on short term interventions to make money (so Plus, Flex etc).
That aside, I can’t really see a bigger picture.

Do we have a community wish list for things that are lacking? The same things often come up, and there are thread with votes, but no aggregate of those. You do an extensive poll once in a while I guess, which is probably the closes thing to it? Still feels hard to see an overview of “stuff the community keeps asking for” though, heh.
But besides that, it would be nice to have some sort of idea what’s coming. Perhaps because Starling plays so nasty they’re just unwilling to reveal product directions anymore as it’s commercially sensitive and Starling will, inevitably, try to grab the limelight by getting in first, regardless of their lack of innovation.
