What's the point of even ordering through the app then?


1. It's still fairly convenient; I find it easier than verbally ordering.

2. I believe it's the only way to get curbside pickup instead of going through the drive through.

3. It functions as a loyalty card; there's always $1 large fries, you get a free coffee drink after every 5, etc.


The app remembers your previous orders. If you order the same thing each time, you just press the previous order to order it again. Done in like 5 seconds.


1) You get to skip what might be a 5-, 10-, or even 15-minute line for the cashier

2) You don't need to worry about the cashier punching in your order wrong (which happens frequently)

3) There are a ton of discounts available only through the app. You can seriously get ~50% off your meal pretty easily

I can't even imagine not using my phone to order.
