Excited

Review voice lately leans excited. Users appreciate mobile order and pickup functionality provides significant time savings for busy daily commuters and students and loyalty program rewards and point collection systems incentivize repeat visits and provide tangible value to users, but report age verification prompts frequently trigger errors that prevent long-term users from accessing their accounts or ordering.

Rating: 4.8

Reviews: 99

Confidence: high

The latest update failed to resolve persistent location and ordering glitches, while new age verification requirements have introduced a fresh wave of negative sentiment that outweighs the minor stability improvements mentioned in the release notes.
