“Stay relevant with” You just removed the last bit of relevance there was with the old logo. The new one is such a bad version.

It does look like pylon
You must construct additional Pylons!

One feature I'm happy about is being able to customise and pin icons to the home screen. FNB kept shoving more icons which I have no intention of ever using (I'm assuming to try push the products) onto the home screen, which then kept pushing the icons I do actually use further down. And for some stupid reason, some important sections like Cards I can only seem to get to from the Home screen.

I'm a loyal FNB customer, but this new app is pretty disappointing. It's basically just the same old app with a new skin. They really missed out on an opportunity to rethink the whole thing.

Looking at the old logo again, what I liked about it was the uniquely African flavor (the acacia tree with the sun behind it). You could almost show that logo to anyone in the world and they'd have a good chance of guessing it was an Africa-based company. They've completely lost that now.

Does not fill me with confidence.
Looks like a tesla coil.

I'm gonna be that guy. I don't mind the new logo and the new look of the app - will take some getting used to things moved around.

(I don't really care what their logo looks like it's just Friday and I wanna get outta here...)

If they just broke their wifi looking symmetry they could keep the acacia design while simplifying it.

Looks like a weirdly bootlegged version of the spotify logo

<- Best available comparison I could find, but you get the idea

There wasn't really anything wrong with the existing app. Dark background with easily identified icons.

Not sure why they feel the need to change their logo. I don't care either way.
