I used to post them on the Monzo forum, then handed the duties to @ordog, but not sure if he’s on here and he can’t post on the Monzo forum right now.
If there’s interest, I can post a quick summary of the changes here, with an external link to the details (posting the full details on the forum was the time-consuming part, so (a) I can accelerate this by posting externally (b) it won’t clog up this forum)
An Android app can be ‘decompiled’ (the overall app extracted into it’s individual core parts) and the core parts from the previous version can be compared with the core parts of the newer version. This comparison shows changes (additions and removals) between the app versions, which usually reveals new features that are in the new version - or - that will be introduced at some point in the future.
Some features are ‘instant’ when the app is updated to the new version and some require Monzo to switch them on. But it’s a good indicator of what’s coming next.
New assets (images/graphics) for Media Controller and Collapsing and Expanding Groups (could this be to expand/collapse multiple future payments which take up space at the top of the feed? Hope so!)
Yeah, I can extract & compare with macros almost fully auto. But posting on the forum with formatting was painful. Simply dumping the comparison results into a HEY World blog post is much easier & quicker. Plus it won’t create massive posts on this forum.
I always enjoyed reading your posts about this on the Monzo forum, even though I’m an iOS user, as it gives us a tantalising glimpse into upcoming features (which end up on both platforms anyway).
It’s great that you’ve decided to post them here, I hope you continue to do so!
Ooooo right in the feels - gone for a few days and you’ve took my job!
Haha I’m kidding of course, awesome job and why wouldn’t it be. You’re the one who taught me how to do it all!
This is really bizarre and something I never saw coming. Looking at the strings, why would you want to cast to screens, play, pause and control the volume of media in a bank app…
Good to see you here @Ordog - wasn’t sure if you’d be here or not and 3.83.0 was an eyebrow raiser for sure I asked if peeps were interested and there is interest in seeing the teardowns here too, so go ahead and post future teardowns please! (pester-mode is still active )
