The Monzo app is changing: we've had a makeover!

Personally I really like it, I think it’s something that will grow on people as new things are added to the created space.

Still on the old version here, are they still rolling it out?

They should still allow a break in period for the new layout ! WHY ON EARTH are you forcing people to use the new layout is beyond me. Even though the old layout does have navigation issues and somethings can be hard to find there a benefits to some of its functionality.
You should at least define an EOL and have a cut off date rather than this forced update. lets see how well this goes down for every user that uses your platform.

This may be the change that makes me leave monzo. :man_shrugging:

The break in period has been the last few months whilst the new layout has been optional. The EOL and cut off date is today! Already before today the vast majority of users are using the new layout.

I really do hate it when people make hysterical cliffhanger threats.

What is it that you really dislike? If you provide some proper feedback and reasoning there’s a chance it can be addressed in later updates.

seriously not everyone in the community or who uses the app has the labs features turned on. so for me the new UI is a bit unexpected.

its not a threat, i haven’t had a chance to use the new UI so this is being sprung on me and is unexpected. I will give it a go, but how long do you think it will take for them to rectify issues, for me or others that don’t like the new UI ?

Depends what the issue is, or if you even have any?

I know, hense the optional part! :slight_smile: There has been plenty of comms about the new layout over the last few months on different platforms, and it has been available to test if you’d like to for a long time. Now is the time that the optional part is over and the old layout has come to EOL.

Crikey… app layouts change all the time. It’s driven by stats and monitoring of user behaviour. The more people that use the app the more chance the company has with success - for the vast majority of people this will be a good change. No changes is not a viable business approach and eventually you wonder why the company hasn’t moved forward…

First of all, I love Monzo!

The feature that I’m missing is the ability to pay bills out of pot. Meaning, that when I get the income, I put it straight into pot for Bills and the direct debit or scheduled payments would be paid out of the bill pot. That would make it more automatic and I would not have to worry to spend that money, since I have direct debits auto from pot.

Is the new makeover going to have s feature like that? The only reason I have the second account is the fact that I put my money away and have only available balance shown to spend.

Hello Milena. Welcome to the community!

Both these features are currently in work

The first in Labs and the second coming soon

That feature is already available, just go into labs and enable bill pots feature

When are we expecting the blog post from Tom this week about the new features?

Please bring back the summary!!!

As a university student, the only reason I use monzo is because of the budget/sumarry page! I want it to be MORE PROMINANT, not less! I don’t like it that it’s hidden away in the top right corner :frowning:

Can we please get a dark mode/theme, the new app has way too much white everywhere, which is horrible to look at, this is literally the only APP I have that doesn’t offer one…
