A user cannot find how to revert Expensify to the old layout, causing team-wide confusion and lost productivity during month-end reporting.

Expensify's new design removes familiar views or makes them hard to find; there is no obvious in-app toggle or guided path to revert to the classic interface, and settings are difficult to navigate under time pressure.
