Silencing David must mean it’s something slightly bigger than something they can hide behind a feather flag being renamed.

Do you have the link to the guide?
I did it once ages ago with a rooted phone but iirc I had to do a diff compare to the previous release.

Here’s a rough set of instructions I gave out when I stopped doing the teardowns in 2020:
I use solid explorer on android to extract the apks from my phone
I then use apktool to decode the APK: Apktool | Apktool
I use Beyond Compare 4 to compare the changes between versions (you will need at least 2 versions decoded for this). You could also try WinMerge, but this occasionally misses files.
The Monzo experiments and feature flags are stored as xml files in data/data/co.uk/getmodo/shared_prefs you’ll need to have a rooted android phone to access these.
Some images files are stored as XML, I usually convert these to svg using https://shapeshifter.design/ then to png in illustrator.

It’s very exciting, but I don’t know when it’ll launch - hopefully

That was in the previous build
Exactly
This thread even has me wanting to know what’s coming 
. Love the hype.
As always, as soon as there’s something to announce you’ll be among the first to know

I don’t have a rooted device to get this on 
Do you still need to sign in to the app for the feature flags XML to show?
Yes. You have to launch the app & let it connect & download the latest server-pushes.
I usually launch it, force-stop, then launch again before querying the flags and experiments.
Oh, I also need to check the experiments?
I have the feature flags but I don’t have an old one to compare it to quickly, maybe you do ? 
You don’t need to (feature flags give out the most info), but I usually check Flags, Experiments, Strings, ID’s and Assets from several locations to sniff out the differences.

You can’t change an app once you initially register it with an app/play store.
Unless you launch an entirely different app of course.

Anybody reckon we’ll see the top secret plans come out this week? I couldn’t get APK extraction working and I’m very impatiently waiting

Having to wait to hear anything else about this is so SO painful
