Everything was fine. I've had my J7 Crown for quite awhile. Don't remember when I bought it. Never had any other issues, until now. Went to restart my phone because my internet(Wifi and standard data) was really slow. Nothing I haven't done before, but now I get a persistent pop-up error message which has rendered my phone useless. "One UI Home keeps stopping" It will not allow me to close the app, it will not allow me to force close, or disable. It just keeps popping up with the error until the phone crashes, restarts and the errors pop-up again.

Because of the pop-up ads, I couldn't get turn off my alarm that was mistakenly set for 30 minutes earlier than it needed to be. I usually uninstall EVERY FREAKING THING that causes ads when I'm not in the app. Had to disable this because it's a system app. Putting ads in your system software is enough to make people switch and never come back. You aren't the only game in town, there's some top competitors and others are moving up.

Causing aggressive pop-up ads on my S7. Ads now pop-up when I'm in the middle of using the phone, as well as when I'm not! Ads interrupted my video recording of my kid's dance, causing me to miss a big portion of it. Ads woke me up in the middle of the night when the phone was not in use at all! Update: This app has completely rearranged my display layout and removes icons from my home screen. I had to swipe the lock screen out of the way to turn off alarm. An ad popped up while writing this.

The new updated app is not good to use. Interface is difficult to navigate and things are not easily organized. The old app was better. Made changes to customize order but then they got reset when I went to edit one thing. I didn't realize going back to edit would reset my order so it only got the last edit but not the earlier customization I made.

I do enjoy ordering from the app and the customization options are great. However, I would like to see them add a couple features before I give it 5 stars. First, I really would like to be able to pay with a gift card. It's disappointing this isn't a feature. Secondly, when they have their rewards offers, i.e. "visit 5 times in October to earn a reward" I would like to be able to track that.

Ugh! Functional, but useless. The app doesn't always have the right menu items (some restaurants carry different items, but not always available on the app). I ALWAYS have to re-enter my credit card info, even though it is STORED (that's an available option, yet doesn't work!!!!!). I've uninstalled and then installed again, but that's not the issue. This app is TERRIBLE.
