Love the new pot images! Will definitely be using a few of those.

Something kinda pot images related that I’m hoping that maybe the @iOS_Health team or Core Experience team can have a look at sometime, is the custom pot image picker tool on iOS.

It’s still using a square alignment tool even though pot images are rectangular, which makes adjusting custom images difficult sometimes as when you save it you realise you’ve cut off part of the picture you want on the pot. It’s not possible tell it’s wrong until you’ve saved it, then you have to go back and upload and attempt to align it again.

[iOS] custom pot image alignment tool - please make it rectangular instead of square

I know this has been mentioned before, including by me, but just thought I’d make it something that can be voted on. On iOS, the custom image picker for aligning the image is still square, even though pot images are rectangular, which makes getting the image aligned properly pretty difficult at times. I had this issue today, and it took multiple alignment attempts along with cropping the image prior to using it in the app to get it aligned properly. I think on Android the alignment tool is al…

These are great! Although it seems when you’re setting the image on a Monzo loan, you can’t choose from the Monzo library - the only option is to choose from user library. Shame as I’d love to use the car one on as the “pot image” for my car loan

Not available for me. I’m on Android and the app is showing as up to date in the Play store.

They look fantastic, well done Monzo. The whole rebrand including overview is massive improvement, I love the whole design, it looks modern, refreshed and these pot images carry on the theme perfectly. Fabulous work, keep it up. We just need an in house ISA together with Investments now

Haven’t you heard.

I’m generally a fan of the rebrand but I hate these new pot images. They just look so childish. At 42 maybe I’m not Monzo’s desired customer but I loved the pictures so if anyone at Monzo is listening please bring back the option to have them.

I totally get that the illustrations aren’t going to be for everyone. Illustration style is subjective to each person. Once thing is for sure though, people’s age certainly doesn’t define how much we desire and value them as customers.

We still allow you to upload photos from your camera roll to use as pot images. There’s a great website called Unsplash where you can download royalty free images to your camera roll. I’d recommend doing this to get the exact photos you like. Hope this helps!

Monzo Pot Image Generator

I spent some time last night building a site for generating pot images: https://potimages.rknight.me/ You can choose from ~1000 icons (from the Font Awesome icon set), pick any colour you want for the background and download the image. You can also share your images with a link. e.g: https://potimages.rknight.me?i=dragon&ip=fas&c=f7f7f7&bg=EC5B5C Some examples: [monzo-pot-image (7)] [monzo-pot-image (4)] I hope this will be useful for a lot of people (I saw a lot of requests in the other …

Except for the safety net.

It would be really interesting to hear your thinking on why this image is mandatory.

If you have the maximum of 20 pots, there is now no way to have distinct Monzo-based pot images/colours to distinguish each pot.

There are only 16…

IMO it was better when you provided plain gradients for each pot.

The images are so small now that blocks of colour work better anyway.

The issue with just colours is it doesn’t work very well for anyone who is colour-blind, but I do agree some more designs would be nice.

[amk221 (Andrew)]

Fair!

before though, they offered minimalist gradients, and built in images. The new set of images makes too many assumptions about what my pots are for. And CBA making my own images for each pot.
