    Thanks for your feedback on the new homepage here. We appreciate what works well and not so well for our customers with the new experience. Our product team have been taking this all onboard as they continue to plan their roadmaps. Since initially released in beta, they've made some changes to the 'Cash in and out' and 'Chart of accounts' widgets so when customising your view you'll now have the options to 'Make larger' or 'Make smaller'.

    Right now, they're also considering sizing of other widgets and your contributions in this idea are super useful to their exploration of this. I'll be sure to share any further updates of the sizing of widgets with you all here.

    I would like to add.. the bank account widgets are physically about the same size as the old dashboard but do not include the little graph (which I quite like as a visual person)...
    So if the graphs are not going to come back, the widget size is totally disproportionate to the data being shown... with the extra column available I would be expecting to display all my widgets without having to scroll down, but I feel like I am scrolling more than before.

    I completely agree with others that the GUI designers have made everything extra large, when there was absolutely no need to... a re-design, sure, I like the idea - but just shrink things back down to where they were, it's now far to in your face...
    Definately needs a 'make smaller' ... i've had to manually zoom out to 80% on my browser to reduce the overwhelm that it creates ..

    And to add, as a very visual person, all the widgets for bank accounts look the same to me now... I've got a fair few 'accounts' and now the graph is gone there is no point me having any of the accounts on my dashboard anymore because it does not give me the visual overveiw that I want to be able to see.
