This is the behaviour I see too.
Loving that you’re using categories to line item your shopping!

You’ve ruined my idea that you’ve somehow busted through the category limit and painstakingly go through every receipt to categorise your groceries by product type!
of course, there will be a spreadsheet and dashboard for that instead

I came to the forum to post that I’d like #2 specifically. I also have my custom categories in subcategory by colour, it would be much easier to find them if I could sort them by colour group, or even maybe just sort them manually. It’s over a year in and I still have to take some time to find certain categories every time, because despite being alphabetical, it’s not easy to remember the exact names I gave everything, especially when I don’t use it daily. Being able to have them in the order I choose would be super helpful. Especially if I could bring in the non-custom categories that I still use too!
And perhaps a bit of a wider range of colours. I get the aesthetic with the whole ombre look, but it does make it harder to distinguish between the different ones, because they are visually closer together. So whilst it looks like there’s say, pale blue-to-dark blue, dark blue-to-purple and purple-to-pink to pick from, because of the overlap, they are visually similar which makes it harder to distinguish at a glance. I’d personally prefer single colours to be an option as well. Not having the normal category colours also means it’s never gonna match (for example, I use Eating Out still, but have a custom category for Takeaways - I don’t want to make my own ‘duplicate’ eating out, but as it stands I can’t have those two match colours as part of a ‘food’ category).
I love the feature but it’d be nice to see some tweaks made based on feedback/how people use, since it’s been out for a while now and nothing is gonna be perfectly suited to the reality of daily use in its first iteration.

I don’t really know where this fits but I was toying around with going for premium again so I upgraded but realised I probably don’t need it.
What then followed were some really nice flow improvements. It recognised I had plus, asked if I wanted it back and when I did allowed me to re-enable virtual cards and custom categories.
Nice job Monzo

This thread seems as good as any to ask this question rather than starting a new one.
If you change the name of a custom category, does it change the name of that category on all your previous transactions?
It does, if they’re all under same category. Just tried it out.
Changed Drinks to Drinky Drinks and it changed them all.

That’s the answer I wanted, thank you!
