One thing ive found thats a bit of a hack is if you go in and “add” to your roundup pot.
This will update the total. Hacky but better than nothing for now
Press and hold the bar at the bottom.

Do you know about the option to tap and hold on the bottom menu bar to switch accounts? Super quick that way.
The app just updated for me. I really like it, super clean and intuitive. I would prefer a £ figure left of overall budget to the percentage. Plus I’m in the camp of thinking the summary widget bar should increase as I spend rather than decrease.
I had one crash, which was from clearing the share new card details with merchants feed item.
It doesn’t act this way on Android unfortunately.

Thank you, I was one
I like the new look 
much much better
I’m not a big fan of % of your budget left, I’d prefer the figures

As everyone has said graphically the app looks so much better, the more you can do with fewer buttons is always better!
My first initial thoughts using the Android app are as follows:
• When you scroll up the ‘left to spend’ widget moves to the top of the page – I feel from a design point of view it should also shrink slightly to allow more previous payment to be seen on the screen.
• Not sure how much I like the ‘view all’ wording in the top left. View all what? It just seems a bit vague (possibly just me being picky) maybe call it ‘Pot’s’ and move the overdrafts and loans elsewhere? (or call it ‘Pot’s & More’)
• Hate that switch accounts is under the view all tab – it’s not intuitive. I believe this is handled differently on IOS with the long hold on the task bar but this also feels less intuitive (I see a few people have asked about it in this thread). I would prefer to simply swipe the monzo card to switch the accounts.
• When you switch accounts you’re taken to the ‘view more’ page in the second account. This makes sense I guess… but you then need to select the back button to go home. I wonder if it should take you to the main home page of the second account.
I realise that some of this may be personal preference but whenever I test a new app or piece of software (as I do in my day job) I always imagine how my mum would get on using it for the first time.
The latest update does a great job so far. Look forward to see how it changes in the next few weeks/months!

Feedback for iOS 2.45.0
-
The Summary widget should decrease from 100% as you spend (like a fuel gauge), rather than increase.
-
I think the Summary widget should scroll with the feed, rather than sticking to the top when you scroll. This would allow users to view more transactions at once.
-
“£X OF £Y BUDGET LEFT” would be more useful than “Z% OF Y BUDGET SPENT”.
These suggested improvements from iOS 2.44.0 are all still relevant:
Bugs
- After clicking the Summary widget, the “you are X within budget” message below the Summary wheel takes ages to load. If I try to scroll down or click on anything while it’s loading, the app crashes.

Not sure if this will help at all but could be fun to see what people would prefer/ want out of the Summary Widget.
*this Poll could be completely off - my first attempt at putting one in
POLL QUESTION: What would you want the Summary Widget to Say?
- X% LEFT of £500 budget (bar would decrease)
- X% of £500 budget SPENT (bar would increase)
- £X of £500 budget LEFT (bar would decrease)
- £X of £500 budget SPENT (bar would increase)

My thoughts:
As mentioned by others ‘View all’ doesn’t make much sense as it isn’t letting you view ‘all’ of anything
.
The scrolling feels like it’s not quite there. You have the left to spend, which is fine (I hate the green but it’s not a killer), but it just feels like a half scrolled down tab… like you’re being invited to dismiss the feed. Also as my muscle memory is pull down to update I keep ending up removing the transactions.
There’s now no indication of the balance available on a specific day… I wasn’t a huge user of that but it was useful sometimes to know how much I had at the end of of a month, and from other threads here there are those for whom running balances are quite important.
The way the current balance is completely removed when you scroll up seems wrong to me even though I’m a huge advocate of the left to spend option.
I’m using the latest TestFlight version on iPhone XS, and am receiving notifications.
Liking the new version so far!
My feedback for people who don’t use summary vs people who do would be to get rid of the account balance figure above the account name and be able to swipe across on the summary budget widget.
One swipe would show budget / summary features (click to edit) and another swipe would display the account balance and total account balance (including pots)
You’d see one extra transaction and people who don’t use summary like me, don’t have to see it.

It shows a monetary figure of you’ve no monthly budget set.
On 
here, broadly speaking I think it’s nice, but I have some constructive feedback to add the pile:
-
I have an active budget so my summary/budget widget says % left to spend - this isn’t much use for me. I need to work with actual amounts really, so I’d like this changed to £ left to spend.
-
[This point is on the assumption that the summary screen being available is an interim measure and could be dropped/replaced with something completely different] Happy to have the summay/budget widget on the home screen, but agree with the point somebody made about it meaning I’ve lost the ‘main’ number I look at. On the summary screen I had a big chunky number that let me know how much cash I have to spare. On the main page now, I have the overall personal account number (which is no use because it includes large amounts of commited spending that come out late in the month) and a small “xx% of £xx budget to spend” figure. So without the summary screen I no longer have anything that tells me how much actual money I have left to spend. Even if the budget widget is changed from % left to £ left, my useful/useable balance number would still very tiny, which is a huge shame as it’s the main thing I look at (as a total aside, this would be solved for me with commited spending pots as my account balance would then become my spendable balance, but I appreciate others use it all differently).
-
I also very much miss the days left tracking tag on the budget line… The RAG status is fine, but being able to see that little perpendicular line on the chart showing me at a glance that I’m around a quarter of the way through my month but half way through my spending allowance is one of the key ways I am able to keep tabs on my spending. It’s such a tiny thing but it’s SO SO SO SO SO useful and I genuinely think I’ll be worse at budgeting without it. The days left number in isolation isn’t as visual and also doesn’t help with pacing my spending, particularly in months that are longer between paydays.
-
Minor point but having View all in the top left makes it difficult to reach with my thumb if I’m using my phone one-handed, and that’s a tab I look at quite a lot. I also think the name should be something else, as it’s not really viewing all (because it doesn’t include your current actual balance) - I appreciate that’s a semantic argument and not a huge deal.
-
The search icon is taking up unnecessary screen space - all that white space to the left of the icon is wasted particularly as you can only tap on the icon, which doesn’t even open a search bar in that gap, it just takes you to another screen. So I think the search icon could go right at the top and free up some space for the feed, which currently feels even more claustrophobic than it did with the pulse.

Turns out I use the general summary page a lot!

This a million times.
I know we’re all hard-wired differently, but I’m very much a visual person and like the quick glance functionality of a horizontal line depleting as I spend against a mini vertical line representing time.

100% agree. Summary is a brilliant way to tell if you can afford to buy something or not.

Got the new look and really like it.
Happy that you can still get to summary with a long press.
Main feedback…
I think the help and ‘view all’ links should be swapped. I’m going to want to look at my pots more often than the help page and so I think it makes sense for that to have a more prominent place.
How do I go back to the old version?
