Improved Mobile Check In

I’m starting to see more and more businesses, mostly national chains for now, updating their mobile apps to make it easier to be safe when making purchases. Most local businesses (in Jefferson City, MO) do not have apps so the process is more cumbersome. Ordering from our favorite Chinese restaurant means calling and telling them we’d like to place an order, pay for it over the phone with a credit card, call them when we arrive, and have them bring it out to our car. “Just come inside and pay!” Nooo, we don’t want to come inside. Will you bring it out to our car? After checking with someone in charge, they say okay. Not a big deal but a process that could be improved with an app.
