The latter, at the moment.
They should get proper in-app submission built quickly, then! Itās already a bit of a hassle to do, and I would submit far less to Monzo without the built-in submission. I submit for pretty much every transaction that could do with improvement. If I had to manually piece a submission together, it would probably drop to 10%. Given how far back Starling are starting, I imagine theyāll be able to increase their merchant data much, much faster if submission is easy from the app.
Android users canāt do it like you describe on Monzo either.

I can understand how frustrating that must be for Android users who want to correct their feed. That would be irritating.
From a business perspective, though, Monzo is still getting lots of data coming in from iOS users, and has loads of historical data (there are far, far fewer corrections for me to do these days than there used to be). So even Android users will likely see most feed items with correct info and logos. I would have thought that Starling want to scale up their merchant data quickly so that new users coming on see how much better the detail is than a traditional bank. But maybe this aspect isnāt as key to their strategy.
You have a point but weāre quite a long way off topic here. If you want to bounce the in-app submission idea around with Starlingās team / users & suggest it as feedback, itās best to use a direct channel.

Yes, true, sorry! I didnāt mean to get quite so into Starling support team territory. Iām more curious about how the other FinTechs are approaching things, but not curious enough to actually try them out. Agree that Iām getting to far into the detail on this one, though, so Iāll return you to the regularly scheduled programmeā¦

Got ya. Well, I wouldnāt be adverse to seeing screenshots etc - should anyone want to share!
screenshots prevented by app securityā¦as are the dangers of rooted phones 
you can still photograph what is showing on your phone so it is a bit of a joke really

How bizarre. So, doing the button combo on iOS simply doesnāt work? Iāve never heard of that before!
On Android at least thereās FLAG_SECURE that a lot of developers set on their windows. It prevents screenshots, videos etc.
Of course, itās trivially removed (and I think thereās an XPosed module too)ā¦
