NLB Komercijalna banka finance app

Since the existing Commercial Bank (NLB Komercijalna banka ad Beograd) app in my home country of Serbia is useless and annoying, I've decided to improve the UI.

Let's analyse the current design.
Welcome screen:
- This is what is waiting for you when you start the app. No splash screen with the branding of the bank, just a screen with a bunch of options and shortcuts. 
- Although this is an iOS app, it is still offering you to scan your fingerprint. I assume this is for older iPhones but I find it redundant. 
- You can access all of the functionalities without entering a PIN code so the app is unlocked!

Account status screen:
- This should be the main page of the app. It should show you your feed. All the transactions, amounts of money you have and should be easily digestible.
- The app features an empty screen with a confusing graph and a poor slider on the lower side. 
- Aahhh the slider. It doesn't work! You can try to slide left and right to navigate through the app but you must pull your finger to the end of the screen sometimes missing the move. It is easy to just click the left and right arrows and navigate screen by screen. 
- This is one of the poorest solutions I've seen.

Account trends screen:
- Confusing graph showing almost none of the information. Why is it like that? Where are your expenses to show the shape of the graph?
This is how I imagined Commercial Bank (NLB Komercijalna banka ad Beograd) app
Welcome screen:
- The screen is locked and it awaits your unlocking. No one can access it while your phone is unlocked. The app still needs to be unlocked.
- Screen features the bank's branding with a clean and minimalistic design. 

Home screen:
- This is your main page. It gives you all the necessary information regarding your money count, expenses, and dues. It shows where and when you spend a certain amount of money.
- For faster navigation, the app provides you with the logos and categories of your spending so you can easily filter your expenses. 

Card screen:
- This page shows you your card, the type, and the looks.
- you can easily lock the card if stolen, change the PIN and add or remove other cards.

Profile screen:
- This screen is all about you. You can change the information such as email, address, phone number, and your membership plan. 

Insights screen:
- The graph is connected with your spending on the same page so you can easily understand the trends and forecast of future spending
- You can track your money saving and set spending goals.

Note: The footer of the app is simplified and features your three main interests. Home feed, your cards, and your profile. It doesn't have to be that complicated. 
The result is a simplified and streamlined UI partially influenced by the N26 Bank app.
