    I used the Mcdonalds app a few times and the drivethru was always faster, lmao.

    They require location services and don’t start cooking until you’re inside their geofence, but IME they seem to still prioritize drivethru customers.

      I don’t eat at McDonald’s, so I haven’t had that experience. But I love being able to order Sheetz food for the next morning when I’m going on a trip, or schedule it for when I’m going to need a pit stop and just have it ready. Wendy’s is also pretty good about this, too.
