Ratings and reviews

It's just not a well designed app for ordering food. It gives a bunch of options but the layout doesn't make sense, then you could be done with your order and go to pay but it only then tells you that you're out of the delivery range. Shouldn't that be baked into a delivery app? It's like they had a good idea, but didn’t think about the people actually using the product.

I tried to order through a local restaurant I've ordered from many times. In the checkout process I was busy and neglected to put a tip and there was no reminder or any other way to indicate that I forgot to tip the driver. I paid a $6 fee to the app itself for basically just middle-manning something I've handled directly repeatedly - or paid their competitors less money to do better. I paid a company $6 and I can't add a tip for the driver that did the work. This app is an embarrassment, avoid!

It's a really good app other than the fact I've only been able to order 1 time from my favorite poke place (without the insane upcharges as DoorDash and more money to the business) but every single time after that whenever I go to pay it just sits there doesn't go through, even if I have money in my account. I haven't been able to order it through the app for the past month and it's more convenient than going in sometimes.
