Are the fonts used here the wrong way round?
It seems to me that the pot type should be small and gray, leaving the pot name to stand out?

Just got the latest update and the jumping between main accounts using the home button is working. That’s great but the animation of flying through all the potts is completely unnecessary.

It looks nice the first time but then it’s just annoying.

I’m tapping home because I want to switch
between accounts I don’t want to wait over a second while all the pots fly past.

It’s like the animations are being added for the sake of it.

Looks good from a marketing perspective, and is something to promote how it visually stands out from the crowd.

I’m ok with the animation. The bit that needs polishing for me is that there is a delay between cycling to the account and my feed displaying. Also the animation is too delayed when changing from my last pot to my joint account - it’s less smooth

iOS TestFlight 2.60.0 is out :eyes: :pray:t2: :slightly_smiling_face:

Initial thoughts on 2.60 iOS:

  • Home switches between JA and personal… but if you’re only a personal user can it please zoom back to the personal current account.

  • I like the introduction of the pull down account list, but it’s not very intuitive when the transaction list has 3 positions… nor is it intuitive to pull down the transaction drawer. Is it not intended that we’ll start the gesture by pulling down the card or pot from the top to the bottom?

  • the animation for taking you to the accounts screen seems a little clunky. You swipe down but the and the screen zooms out… but on releasing it returns to full size before the accounts screen appears with a animation on the account card. It just looks odd to me. It might’ve been better if the whole zooming out thing continued and then the new screen dropping in over the top. If that makes sense?

  • Nice that the summary reversion is now back in place

Woohoo!

Just Installed.

Feedback for iOS TestFlight 2.60.0 on :apple: ;

  • First thanks to everyone (Monzo and here) for making it better and better. :smile:
  1. Love the removal of text from the Nav bar, looks awesome
  2. Love tapping on left to spend, the pie symbol seems superfluous now
  3. Still don’t like how the manage overdraft is in the third icon in, in orange, looks out of place
  4. Love the pull down account list, but not really intuitive and don’t see the full benefit?

Otherwise awesome, keep up the good work!

What happened to the animation for the blue pill thing at the top with account number and sort code? I thought this version would have a smooth animation for this as it looks a bit raw at the moment.

Maybe this is android only so far, looks nice on android.

On iOS the pull down gesture to view all accounts isn’t overly intuitive and doesn’t feel particularly smooth. It shrinks the screen slightly, snaps back to full screen, you wait a second or two and then it switches to the accounts view.

It’s definitely a step in the right direction though.

Playing with the new transition on iOS then suddenly… the feed is gone!

Unable to get it back by navigating around the app or repeating the transition. Restarting the app fixed it, but still worth raising.

Yeah that animation isnt as smooth as it could be on ios 2.60.

I really like the new View All gesture good job guys :slight_smile:

I still think it needs to be snappier, showing updated feed, going into the monzo points screen are all a bit slower than id expect still.

Home button interaction still not there on ios also? Looking forward to this but I’d agree with what someone else said that if it can be done faster by removing the animation then please do that :slight_smile:

All in all were getting there!

iOS initial thoughs (mostly similar to what’s been mentioned)

  • My Home button seems to do nothing?
  • The pull down to accounts overview needs work, it feels clunky. Also, if I have my feed full-screen, it’s pretty awkward to pull all the way down, and still trigger the overview
  • The doubling up of the pie-chart icon and the tappable Left to Spend is odd. One or the other.
  • There’s no indication that the ‘blue pill’ or the Left to Spend is tappable/does something
  • Still the odd doubling up of Settings (although I think I saw that this was in-progress?)

Home button animation is :sunglasses:

Press once for CA
Twice for JA
Three times for credit card

So easy to zoom past all my pots now :heart:

Loving the return of vibration feedback for the navigation!

Just a thought… have you considered implementing a feature where the user would long press a payment to easily add to a shared tab or split payment? Could be some use :slight_smile:

I just deleted a pot, and when it had gone it showed me a blank space where the pot used to be, rather than moving to the next ‘available’ pot.

I also had this yesterday (Android beta 6, Monzo beta 2.60.0)

Same thing - feed gone and only a white screen. Payments displayed OK but tapping on the Summary icon didn’t go to Summary. I also had to Force Stop the app and relaunch. It’s been OK since - but worth mentioning now 2 people on 2 platforms have had what appears to be the same issue

(Understood it is beta)
