What are we working on? The Monzo Weekly Diary

Hi there :wave: Thanks @thomasageorge !

First things first, follow me on Twitter. My ego is way too strong to miss this opportunity to fool a few more victims into following me. Worst part is that I don’t even tweet interesting stuff :slight_smile:

What I’m working on? A few things:

  1. Helping @bailey to review all the lovely names we’ve been getting. It’s a really exciting and exhausting process. For every potential name we need to check trademarks and general availability, test with real people to get a bit of useful data, etc.

  2. Improve the waiting list experience. We know it’s a bit frustrating to wait for a card so we’re trying to give users useful content and better ways to get their cards quickly. @sam and @anon50039658 have done an amazing job on it, you’ll see it soon.

  3. Budgeting. This is a big one because it impacts tons of structural parts of the app (both as prepaid and by the time we’re a full bank). I’m working with @anon173672 to define the master interactions (navigation, notifications, etc.), redefine a few concepts and build prototypes to start testing with users. We’ll share a sneak peek as soon as we have something a bit consistent.

On top of that I’ve been spending some time to define better processes on the way we work and the tools we use, but I don’t want to bore you with all that :sunglasses:

I’m now going to nominate @anon94554600 (he can tell us about VR and other mindblowing stuff).
