    Looking and reading the reviews on the app store, it's quite astonishing that an organisation like Macca's has allowed such a terrible app to stay out for so long, and it looks like the update isn't improving things.

    Out of interest, does anyone know the backstory?

    • +3

      I believe it's the same dev that made the site, it was one guy from Sydney. Web dev, not a professional app dev, but he sold himself / his company well.

      I'd love to recreate both and make the experience actually enjoyable.

    • I had massive issues 3 plus moths ago but it’s been running perfectly since. This new update only became available this morning after being down for 24 hours. Haven’t had a play with this one yet but as I said before the old app was working perfectly for me for at least 2 months now.

    My experience is app stopped working yesterday when I wanted to use it, said update to the latest version which was released a few days ago. Deleted the app and downloaded the latest. Still didn't work.

    Always have to delete and download to update and then login.

    Downloaded again this morning, login in again and its working … finally.

    Only reason I tolerate the app is for the $5 McFeast meal :)

    Wow 20% discount looks like maccas biggest discount yet.

    • +1

      Still think the $5 mcfeast is the best deal they have

      • +2

        and you can combine both, get 2 meals for $8

      • i cant find this in the app

      • Oh I see - you select McFeast and then make it a small meal and then its $5.

    • There was 25% off recently

      • +1

        Agreed. The last three were 25% off. I'm not sure 20% will convince me to buy at their exorbitant prices. And I never feel satisfied afterwards anyway.

        • yep they are v expensive when you compare to HJ with the vouchers, i nonly go to Maccas coz they are so close by & the cheeseburgers are better than HJ, everything else is average for the price

  • +3

    I've had 25% several times over the last few months.

    Terrible app though. Every single order is a massive PITA if it even works.

    Issues include:
    - Cant figure out where I am (even though GMaps loads my location instantly)
    - Can't load menus for chosen store
    - Loaded menu shows hardly any items
    - Can't process order/payment

    Still, I've battled and had some cheap meals (the Golden Meals at the beginning were great).

      Issue can related to your internet connection, I have noticed that you need to have a steady internet connection to make app to work properly.

  • Newest Android app does not respond to any touch other than to get to settings menu for me. Old one was buggy but kind of worked.

  • +3

    I can’t believe people are still having issues, my partner and I have used both hers and my phone at least once a week to order stuff and haven’t had any issues for months! Been working perfectly one an old iPhone 6 now working perfectly on both of our new iPhone X too!

    • +11

      if you had bought $300 xiaomi instead of $1600 iphone you would each have $25 extra per week and could replace the weekly mcdonalds with something much better

      like daily mcdonalds

    i downloaded this app yesterday, and it brought up an endless loop of alerts telling me "error not the latest app". After a good 500 alert boxes on the screen the app sh*ts itself and crashes. Who wrote this app, Ronald McDonald himself?

    I went into mcdonalds and I am reading the menu off the TV on the wall, and it rotates the display to show me a picture of an oversized tomato, followed by a mig mac, followed by a picture of their logo, all with 30 second delays, by this stage I had enough and just went to kfc.

    • You shouldn’t need the menu at maccas anyway.

      • +4

        why? how the hell do you order something when you don't know what they sell

    • The app was down yesterday, McDonald’s pulled it as the new one was coming but had to be approved by Apple. That’s why there doing the 20% off today, as an apology.

      • I don't think it's an apology, they have a weekly reward thursday to wednesday, past couple weeks were $2 off and the one before was 25% off

        • Quote from McDonald’s email!

          “Overnight we've been upgrading our mobile ordering service to deliver you a better ordering experience.

          Our Android app is now available for you to update from the Google Play Store.

          For iOS, the updated app will be available for you on the Apple App Store shortly. We're sorry for any inconvenience this might have caused.

          For all our mymacca's® mobile ordering customers, we'll have an awesome offer waiting for you in the app once mobile ordering is available to you.

          Thanks for your patience”

      To be fair, Ronald McDonald grew up in an era with little technology, he has been hard at work trying to catch up on his app development skills. It's no wonder I don't see him sitting permanently on the bench anymore.

  • i can now not only not login, but the forgot password link tells me i am not registered. not impressed at all. they have all my personal information, plus card details for payment…and now they suddenly have no record..

  • is there an option to pay for the order with cash in the app

  • The app barely works on my s8+. Usually need to restart it after selecting the restaurant. Then it let's you order.

  • is there a return of the golden meals? maccas too expensive nowdays

  • Is the mcFeast $5 deal still running???

    • +1

      Yes, ordered last night in brisbane

      • hmm. thanks. Last time I got in on this deal, it was only available instore, 12pm to 2pm…

        How do I get it for dinner tonight??! cheers

        • +1

          Order thru the app, small mcfeast meal is $5, if you don't see it maybe its location or state specific?

        • +1

          @payton:

          ordered with no problems… $16 for 3 x mcfeast meals and 6 nuggets.

  • Mine keeps telling me to update to the latest version, but I AM on the latest version. How to fix this?
    Edit: Never mind, deleting and installing again fixed it

  • If the app fails, show the screen to the people at the counter or just tell them as they are aware of it too and they will still honour the deal… I've had to do it a few times in the past

  • I updated to the new app this morning. Surprisingly for me the app is so much faster now. It hasn't crashed on me yet.

    The old app was was so damn slow i gave up using it and just went inside to order via the kiosks.

    • is the $5 mc feast and the golden meals available on the kiosks as well?

      • I didn't check. But the app doesn't have the family box meals while the kiosk does.

        So i would assume the kiosk will have everything including the golden meals.

      • Wasn't when I went at 8:30pm, however they might have the kiosk restricted to the hours of the offer, unlike the app.

  • +3

    best ordering app : KFC

    • worst one is red rooster. Even their staff recommend not using it and to go through menulog.

  • Why am I here and seeing this when I quite clearly have "Hide deals from store McDonald's" checked?

    • It's for your own good. And your children's.

  • Just installed the app, it says Nov 13th edition? and I can't see any 20% off?

    Edit, found it on the home screen.

  • Last time they had a discount, I got there and spent 5 minutes trying to apply to order/pay and gave up. Horrid app.

    • +1

      If you open the app and are in store, just use the Touchscreen Kiosk and scan your code by touching the bar code button on the screen and scan bottom left of the unit, no need to open store details as the discount is on the home screen of the app.

      Also useful for items not in the App such as the 24 Nuggets $9.95. I normally get a couple $1 custom burgers as well, so that pushes me over the $10 requirement.

      • +1

        The bar code button has been replaced with a "Promo's" button in the same location as where the bar code button was.

        Don't know if was me after a long week, but when I selected takeaway, I didn't see Pay at Counter option and was asked for my card, which you can't cancel out of, even pressing cancel on the pin pad did nothing.

        Hopefully it was just me, otherwise I'm not going to be using my card at Maccas if I'm already in store.

    Love this app. Well not the app but the service it provides.

    1. Place order 5 minutes before arriving.
    2. Park car, confirm order as soon as in range.
    3. Walk into store, straight past huge queue of people
    4. Pickup order and walk out.

    Plus every 6th coffee on the house :)

    • seems you get better service from it than i do, last time i ordered a cheeseburger meal & 3 chicken strips, but i had to wait 5 mins, even though i ordered it on the app 10 mins prior to arriving! anything other than popular choices eg big mac, fries, seems to be a wait!
      I do usually order late night though so maybe just less staff on is the issue…

      also..why would you park when you can just collect drive through? or is the drive thru really busy?

  • App doesn’t work to order it gives me a dam error upon payment??????

  • I've tried to use the app and it never shows (renders) a menu. it doesn't allow me to switch from breakfast to the regular menu either.

    As such it's been impossible to order anything - shame.

    • Delete and reinstall the app for iOS. It should work. Can't help you with Android.

  • Just downloaded the new updated MyMaccas app (McDonald’s took it down for a day to completely update it) and I noticed they have 20% off a minimum $10 spend back again until 28/11

    Sweet, Maccas today & tomorrow
    Then Hungry Jacks from Tomorrow 28/11 :)
