This sounds like hell.

Why on earth would you want that? Open the app, go to the account, enter the money with specificity, select the account to transfer it to, click the button.

Sure, being able to say "Transfer 200 to Steve" is nice and all but.. I just don't... consider it much better than the process we have today?

If I could actually do that verbally, that would be a huge improvement. Too bad it doesn’t work like that.

Just because the process today is "good enough" doesn't mean that it's a worthwhile use of developer time to create that process.

But, you're highlighting one of the challenges of changing the status quo. The "new thing" has to be significantly better than the old, otherwise people won't immediately want to switch.

Similar arguments were probably made when the iPhone removed the physical keyboard.
