mcdodo wants me to register and get an app to buy a mcmuffin...
McDonalds is one of the better apps. I get free stuff all of the time. They have specials for breakfast or lunch (buy one get one free) every day.
As a truck driver there are very few places I can stop with a rig. I have a McD’s on my route so I know this :)
I went to order food at the San Jose airport a couple days ago. You had to scan the QR code on the table to get a menu. Then, to order, you had to enter your name, email, and all of your credit card info! There was no way to do a conventional order and pay at the end. I said “screw this,” left the joint, and bought a chicken salad sandwich next door for cash. At least they didn’t want me to put App #163 on my phone. My gym got rid of their old, simple fingerprint reader for check-in and make you use an app!
Many of the apps could be a web page.
A big point of a web browser was to make it so you did not have to load a separate app for various internet site. Apps on phones in many cases are a step backwards.
