Great Update, but beware!
Dec 9, 2020 Great Update: Being able to select Easy on the different toppings is very helpful and favorites has become much better. Also now you can select sauces, the workers don’t always look at the receipt for sauces, but it’s still early for the changes still and I’m sure some people might change there mind. Thanks for the awesome update. Great step forward! Update: Finally got access to my account again after 9 weeks of not being able to get in. Only after writing the Beware on my review. So I had a week turn around on getting my account access back after giving a bad review. Beware: I have been locked out of my account for 2 months now. Trying to get back in to it to no avail. I try the forgot password and it won’t send me the email, yet they continually send me promotional emails. I had 2 rewards, but by now they are probably expired. The contact form for support never appears to work, for me at least. I don’t get a confirmation that I submitted a support ticket or any notifications that I will be contacted. I can’t resign up with Facebook or my email because they are both already being used. So, as I have said to support. I’m not buying anymore Taco Bell until I can have access to my account. I had all my favorites set up and I was happy. Now, my disappointment is immeasurable and my rest of the year has been ruined.more -
Way, way better now. Solid app.
May 27, 2019 I wrote a snarky review about how much the app would lock up, and how buggy the checkout process was. I’m really glad to see that the new version of the app is *far* superior on both fronts! I still have to knock a star off for the fact that certain screens—especially the Customize screens—can appear to fail when you open them. They are actually just loading, and dutifully populate the views after they’re done, but they are not reporting any status or progress and it makes it feel like the app is frozen or has hit an error, which isn’t great. Also, this is just an opinion, but I think it’s odd that ordering for in-store pickup indicates that they start preparing the order right away, but ordering for drive-thru indicates that they wait for me to be on-site and check in before the order is prepared. It seems like I’d always want to choose in-store pickup, so they can prepare it while I’m driving there, or at least have advance notice of the order to save a little time on both sides, and I’m confused why the drive-thru doesn’t use the same logic... Maybe the higher likelihood of being forced to wait for a long drive-thru line...? Only one transaction-spot to receive the food in the drive-thru, versus potentially multiple points in-store? I assume it was a deliberate choice. Just interesting, I guess. Other apps use GPS to detect when you’re nearly at the restaurant for that kind of thing, could be a good feature.more -
Jan 18, 2021 Big BIG 10/10 mastapeece was initially the review. The past few times I have ordered through the app we get to the restaurant and they have no record of the order. One of these has to be the issue in the app, the other may be an issue with the store. Frustrating though to place an order and get there only to have to repeat it or argue with them.more -
Horrible app! Horrible, embarrassing experience!
May 29, 2018 I have never had so many problems with an online app as I did with Taco Bell’s app. On Thursday May 24th I made an online order for this store location 330 w northside dr Jackson ms. I submitted the order over thirty minutes before arriving to the location because I made a stop prior to arriving. The money for my order was taken from my account and when I got to the window I was yelled at and told that I could not have my food (that I had paid for) that they didn’t see any order or money. They yelled at me and made me leave the drive thru. They told me they have nothing to do with the “raggedy” app. I left and went down the road to call the customer service number for a resolution . The rep answers the phone sounding sleepy and nonchalant. She told me there was nothing she could do. It was the apps fault . That I have to wait 3 business days before I can be refunded. I called again today , Tuesday ! And was told that a refund has been requested that now I need to wait 6-10 business days for the app to refund me! I will never use this App again in my life . Thanks Taco Bell for what has been the worst fast food experience of my life ! Delete this app ! Everyone do not use it !! I promise you’ll run into an issue .more -
Jan 18, 2021 Google pay option is not working. Needs a fix. I just wanted to come back and update this review. The customer service for this app is remarkably excellent! Top notch! They went back and forth with me and worked with me until the issue with my credit card not working with their app was resolved. I am extremely impressed. A++more

Ordering made 10x more difficult
Dec 4, 2018 I've tried using this app 3 times. The first two times I selected which location I wanted it at and somewhere along the way it chose a different store across town and I didn't find out until I was at the one I wanted to order from. I even payed special attention the second time to make sure it wasn't user error and it still somehow changed it. I waited in a 30 minute line twice both times because the service was slow and I didn't find out that it wasn't at that location until I was at the window. That's 2 hours of waiting overall for a taco! If it wasn't too late to have gone inside to get it but at that point only the drive thru was open. The third time I tried using it wasn't as bad but I like jalepenos so I tried adding them to my order and the option was there but every time I tried selecting it, it either didn't even show that I tried adding them but every now and then it would show it checked off for a split second before unchecking itself, I tried it with multiple different food items to make sure it wasn't just that my item couldn't have jalepenos added to it. It wouldn't let me add it to a single item. And I can't find any explanation for it. This app is supposed to make ordering easier but it's done nothing but add 10 times more stress to trying to get food. The restaurants weren't at all helpful when I explained the situation. At this point in about ready to give up on taco bell altogether and use the mcdonalds app next time.more -
Jan 15, 2021 Stores locally constantly disappear so you can't find your closest store to order from. The local stores call corporate to let them know the issue with online ordering. Yet somehow they don't make any effort to fix the issue or come up with a work around! The manager said Its been 2months since they have had an online order. Yet when you try to order a quesarito the worker will say "you have to order through the TB app", knowing damn well their store won't show up on the app. IT'S JUST SAD TB..more -
Jan 14, 2021 Frustrating when you look at "my cravings" area on the app of my favorite items they all say no longer available. This is five different items that I found over the last couple years. The lack of consistency with the menu and ingredients makes the app extremely hard to use. Every single time you log in your favorite items are no longer sold why even have that option in the app.more -
This app is useless
Mar 29, 2019 There is no reason to upload this App as it simply has no point. I bought $40 of gift cards to get an additional bonus and am unable to use them. You can’t pay with the e-gift cards you buy through at a Taco Bell as they don’t have the capability to type in the gift card number. So you have to use the App to mobile order, and that is slower than any other App on Earth. Oh and once you get a couple things in your cart to checkout, you absolutely cannot pay for them with the gift cards you bought through Taco Bell. So it was a complete waste of money and I’d like my money back. DO NOT bother using this App and definitely don’t buy gift cards from Taco Bell. UPDATE 3/28 All I’ve wanted to do is use the App enough to use the balance I had left on the gift card. But still it only works 1 out of 4 times and I end up having to go inside and start the order over. Today was the biggest thievery of them all. After getting the order to the cart after 20 minutes of starting and restarting, my bill was 37 cents higher than the balance of my gift card. So I had to put in a credit card for the 37 cents and afterwards noticed the whole $20 order was charged to my credit card. So I still can’t get rid of the App because it’s literally STEALING money from me. Please don’t get this App. You will be sorry. How it gets such a good rating when all the recent ones are always awful I will never know. Taco Bell must be deleting them.more -
Jan 19, 2021 My original review got deleted, but I lost $20 when I ordered breakfast and got the notice it was being made but when i arrived I was told the location hadn't served breakfast in months and they were unable to cancel my order and told me to cancel on the app, but you can't cancel or change an order once it's status is set to 'being made'. So if the place didnt serve breakfast, the app shouldn't have allowed the order to go through.more

Great App if stores were notified.
Jul 2, 2017 Husband just went to pick up our order and they don't have tomatoes, sour cream, red sauce, avocado sauce, or the "double chalupa" which was "new featured item" or the box (combo) in association with it so basically he asked for a regular chalupa instead of double; they couldn't substitute and couldn't refund b cause they didn't have the detailed order of the cost (extra cheese, ect) so once I called him and asked why she couldn't just pull up the order number and see the details... basically she eventually figured out how to refund (I think/hope) but I keep trying to give it another shot and because of the inconsistency and inconvenience I won't be attempting again. Sad part is I still love the app but my store never knows that I've placed an order and ALWAYS has issues like they are regularly out of things (beef?!) that are on the menu and once The app allows me to order off lunch menu my store still won't make it until 11:00 even though the app says lunch is available before then.... so basically a good app doesn't mean much if the stores aren't in sync with the app. (Previous review from 2 years ago..... I love that I get to take my time and order without feeling rushed and it's ready when I arrive!!)more

Jan 20, 2021 The last few times I tried ordering it pops up with an error that says "your cart doesn't qualify for the selected reward" even when I have not selected any reward and it shows my cart as empty on the final screen before paying. Also please add an option to beable to substitute sauces on items without an extra charge.more -
Useful but not always reliable
Jun 5, 2017 First, the app isn't optimized for iPhone 6 or 7 plus models and the widescreen resolution is kinda annoying. Second, submitting an order vs. "checking in" at the pickup location don't always sync well. It tells you to wait until you arrive, but there's often 10+ min delay between my check-in time and when the order finally queues at the restaurant. Kinda defeats the purpose of the app's supposed convenience and time-saving abilities lol. Third, there is nowhere in-app to add special instructions or requests for the order (i.e. extra sour cream on the side). You have to make those requests at the restaurant, but adding a simple instruction at TB is like asking them to perform brain surgery. And when you tell them you want the extra items on the side (which you already paid for in-app) 99% of the time they charge me AGAIN at the window. Lastly, the app should decrease the odds of TB screwing up the order since I'm placing it myself and making sure it's correct. And yet they NEVER get it correct lol don't seem to have this issue at other restaurant apps (chipotle, subway, etc.) & I've tried at numerous TB locations, so it's super frustrating. The app works well for most part but the human element in-store is still a massive problem.more -
Jan 17, 2021 The app is slowly getting better, many of the issues I had and things I hoped for have been fixed or added. Main gripe I have now is still being unable to specify if I want a drink with extra/easy/no ice, since nearly every time everyone I order for prefers no ice.more -
Five stars before glitch
Aug 13, 2018 Update: I was finally able to reset password, store connectivity seems to be up and running again. Moved to 4 stars until the app proves it will work seamlessly again like it did the first two weeks after downloading... if no more issues will move to 5! Original: This app is fantastic... until it kicks you off and won’t let you back on. I guess I was using it too frequently! Seriously though, the app is attractive, user friendly, and dangerous for late night cravings. However, on trying to order one night from the same store I had used it for many times before, upon checkout/submit order it told me that the connection with store was lost. I thought this to be a mistake so I tried again, and again, and again. I was starting to get nervous that maybe my order was going through and just getting run over and over. But that was not the case. Using Apple Pay, none went through but what was worse, it logged me out of the app, I couldn’t remember my password, and then the forget password functionality told me user access denied. I can’t get back into the app... I’m in the phantom zone! Taco Bell is easily losing $15/wk keeping me out of the app. Please fix this bug!!!more

Jan 15, 2021 The app lets you order and pay for freezes even if your selected location's freeze machine is broken... My local Taco Bell offered to replace it with a large fountain drink, but that's not the same price as a freeze. I didn't want to cancel the whole order, so I accepted something just under the cost of the freeze but I hope that gets fixed soon. As well as the local freeze machine!more -
Jan 17, 2021 Pretty decent app, rewards are nice but some annoyances. You aren't able to change your ice preference for drinks, there is no option to select Dr. Pepper, and payments always fail when using an Amex. -
Jan 18, 2021 Always order thru the app. If you don't, you won't get any points towards a reward. $7.25 not well spent because I was driving and didn't think to use this app seeing as there was no line.

Major Flaws
Jun 4, 2020 Let me start by saying I have used many different apps through the App Store for food services and restaurants. This app, by far, has caused me the most headache for trying to figure out what I want to eat. The first thing that happens when opening the app is it displays an error message stating “Oops! Well this is embarrassing...” the message goes on for longer. It leaves me with a button to go to the home page. I press the button and does just that. At the home page, or menu as it takes me to, if I click on any category of food so I can figure out what I want to eat, it displays the same error and takes me back to the menu. The only way I can get to see the menu is the top slide bar with the categories. By the time I figure out what I want, I could have ordered at the drive-thru and paid. Since I have been experiencing this flaw since installing, I have never used the app to order food. Other apps have given me such great results and streamlined the ordering process, unfortunately, this app is an inconvenience. I truly refuse to use the app as I have been having many issues. If this is how a more personalized experience feels then it is a disgrace to have this app anywhere near my phone. Two stars for a review is being generous. The reason for two is I was able to still find what I wanted to eat, but nothing else redeems the rest of the stars.more -
Jan 17, 2021 This app is so frustrating. It signs me out constantly and IT DOESN'T ACCEPT CHASE CARDS. Every single time I try to pay with *any* Chase card, it says "We're having trouble processing your selected payment." Seriously, Taco Bell?! 4 grand in my bank and I can't get $30 worth of tacos 🤦♀️ fix this, pleasemore -
Jan 16, 2021 Broken. Can't submit any order. Google pay won't take and it won't take any credit cards. Update. The problem is you can't submit the order without putting in your name. The name entry box fails to show up sometimes. -
Didn’t receive whole order.
Dec 30, 2020 So last night was the first time I downloaded and used the Taco Bell app instead of ordering inside/drive thru. The lady at the window was very nice and when she handed us the bag it was sealed shut, plus there was a long line and I was just ready to get home to eat and go to bed, so we didn’t bother checking. We’ve never had issues with wrong orders before so checking the order didn’t cross our minds. Unfortunately when we got home and pulled all of the food out we were missing two desserts and all of our sauces we asked for. I checked the receipt to see if I made a mistake when I placed the order online since it’d been my first time using the app, and everything was correct on the receipt. We didn’t want to make the drive back to the store and wait in line again, so we just took the loss. Even better, when we finally started eating, I figured out the steak quesarito wasn’t even made right with the ingredients that was listed on the app. I was hungry so I ate it anyways.. with no sauce. I’m not saying I won’t go back, it’s just that Taco Bell has never disappointed this Taco Belle before. I’m not sure if the items were overlooked or if there is something confusing that just happens with the online/APP orders or what. I just thought I should leave this here. *Happy New Year*more

What’s Groovy
I do enjoy the convenience of this app but it can be just as inconvenient at the same time. There's a bunch of stuff on their menu that is not on the app, causing me to have to ring up a second order at the store for the missing items or options... Which kinda defeats the purpose honestly. Why can't I order a side of nacho cheese? Or pintos and cheese? Or even ask for my item(s) to be grilled well done? These things need to be added to be a good mobile ordering experience in my opinion..

What’s Subpar
I selected my preferred store online. The order was sent to a different store. I arrived at the correct store, and tried ordering online again. The app informed me that the payment couldn't go through, so I ordered on the kiosk. After I payed for my breakfast, my phone informed me that the payment went through. Highly dissatisfied at paying three times the amount I needed to for breakfast.

I try the forgot password and it won’t send me the email, yet they continually send me promotional emails. I had 2 rewards, but by now they are probably expired. The contact form for support never appears to work, for me at least. I don’t get a confirmation that I submitted a support ticket or any notifications that I will be contacted. I can’t resign up with Facebook or my email because they are both already being used. So, as I have said to support. I’m not buying anymore Taco Bell until I can have access to my account. I had all my favorites set up and I was happy. Now, my disappointment is immeasurable and my rest of the year has been ruined. -
Way, way better now. Solid app.
I wrote a snarky review about how much the app would lock up, and how buggy the checkout process was. I’m really glad to see that the new version of the app is *far* superior on both fronts! I still have to knock a star off for the fact that certain screens—especially the Customize screens—can appear to fail when you open them. They are actually just loading, and dutifully populate the views after they’re done, but they are not reporting any status or progress and it makes it feel like the app is frozen or has hit an error, which isn’t great. Also, this is just an opinion, but I think it’s odd that ordering for in-store pickup indicates that they start preparing the order right away, but ordering for drive-thru indicates that they wait for me to be on-site and check in before the order is prepared. It seems like I’d always want to choose in-store pickup, so they can prepare it while I’m driving there, or at least have advance notice of the order to save a little time on both sides, and I’m confused why the drive-thru doesn’t use the same logic... Maybe the higher likelihood of being forced to wait for a long drive-thru line...? Only one transaction-spot to receive the food in the drive-thru, versus potentially multiple points in-store? I assume it was a deliberate choice. Just interesting, I guess. Other apps use GPS to detect when you’re nearly at the restaurant for that kind of thing, could be a good feature. -
Big BIG 10/10 mastapeece was initially the review. The past few times I have ordered through the app we get to the restaurant and they have no record of the order. One of these has to be the issue in the app, the other may be an issue with the store. Frustrating though to place an order and get there only to have to repeat it or argue with them.

Horrible app! Horrible, embarrassing experience!
I have never had so many problems with an online app as I did with Taco Bell’s app. On Thursday May 24th I made an online order for this store location 330 w northside dr Jackson ms. I submitted the order over thirty minutes before arriving to the location because I made a stop prior to arriving. The money for my order was taken from my account and when I got to the window I was yelled at and told that I could not have my food (that I had paid for) that they didn’t see any order or money. They yelled at me and made me leave the drive thru. They told me they have nothing to do with the “raggedy” app. I left and went down the road to call the customer service number for a resolution . The rep answers the phone sounding sleepy and nonchalant. She told me there was nothing she could do. It was the apps fault . That I have to wait 3 business days before I can be refunded. I called again today , Tuesday ! And was told that a refund has been requested that now I need to wait 6-10 business days for the app to refund me! I will never use this App again in my life . Thanks Taco Bell for what has been the worst fast food experience of my life ! Delete this app ! Everyone do not use it !! I promise you’ll run into an issue . -
Google pay option is not working. Needs a fix. I just wanted to come back and update this review. The customer service for this app is remarkably excellent! Top notch! They went back and forth with me and worked with me until the issue with my credit card not working with their app was resolved. I am extremely impressed. A++

Great App if stores were notified.
Husband just went to pick up our order and they don't have tomatoes, sour cream, red sauce, avocado sauce, or the "double chalupa" which was "new featured item" or the box (combo) in association with it so basically he asked for a regular chalupa instead of double; they couldn't substitute and couldn't refund b cause they didn't have the detailed order of the cost (extra cheese, ect) so once I called him and asked why she couldn't just pull up the order number and see the details... basically she eventually figured out how to refund (I think/hope) but I keep trying to give it another shot and because of the inconsistency and inconvenience I won't be attempting again. Sad part is I still love the app but my store never knows that I've placed an order and ALWAYS has issues like they are regularly out of things (beef?!) that are on the menu and once The app allows me to order off lunch menu my store still won't make it until 11:00 even though the app says lunch is available before then.... so basically a good app doesn't mean much if the stores aren't in sync with the app. (Previous review from 2 years ago..... I love that I get to take my time and order without feeling rushed and it's ready when I arrive!!) -
The app lets you order and pay for freezes even if your selected location's freeze machine is broken... My local Taco Bell offered to replace it with a large fountain drink, but that's not the same price as a freeze. I didn't want to cancel the whole order, so I accepted something just under the cost of the freeze but I hope that gets fixed soon. As well as the local freeze machine!

Good, but still needs work.
Exactly a month ago, I used the Taco Bell app to place an order and had some problems. Tonight, I decided to use it again...and had less problems. I didn’t have a problem with picking my items or simply browsing and it getting stuck loading as I had before, but when I went to Checkout, that’s when the issues began. I had to close and re-launch the app several times to actually submit and complete my order for Drive-Thru pick-up. It was either getting stuck with the loading icon for a restaurant location to choose or not being able to choose between In-Store or Drive-Thru for my method of pick-up as it wouldn’t allow me to actually tap and choose one. My persistence paid off around the 6th or 8th time of attempting to successfully submit my order. Other than that, everything went really well and I was satisfied with my experience. It’s small things, but once those are addressed and fixed, this app’ll be undoubtedly amazing and convenient to use for much future business. For the record, I’d still recommend this app, but I wouldn’t be too enthusiastic of it when suggesting it just yet. -
The last few times I tried ordering it pops up with an error that says "your cart doesn't qualify for the selected reward" even when I have not selected any reward and it shows my cart as empty on the final screen before paying. Also please add an option to beable to substitute sauces on items without an extra charge.

Useful but not always reliable
First, the app isn't optimized for iPhone 6 or 7 plus models and the widescreen resolution is kinda annoying. Second, submitting an order vs. "checking in" at the pickup location don't always sync well. It tells you to wait until you arrive, but there's often 10+ min delay between my check-in time and when the order finally queues at the restaurant. Kinda defeats the purpose of the app's supposed convenience and time-saving abilities lol. Third, there is nowhere in-app to add special instructions or requests for the order (i.e. extra sour cream on the side). You have to make those requests at the restaurant, but adding a simple instruction at TB is like asking them to perform brain surgery. And when you tell them you want the extra items on the side (which you already paid for in-app) 99% of the time they charge me AGAIN at the window. Lastly, the app should decrease the odds of TB screwing up the order since I'm placing it myself and making sure it's correct. And yet they NEVER get it correct lol don't seem to have this issue at other restaurant apps (chipotle, subway, etc.) & I've tried at numerous TB locations, so it's super frustrating. The app works well for most part but the human element in-store is still a massive problem.

Great Update, but beware!
Great Update: Being able to select Easy on the different toppings is very helpful and favorites has become much better. Also now you can select sauces, the workers don’t always look at the receipt for sauces, but it’s still early for the changes still and I’m sure some people might change there mind. Thanks for the awesome update. Great step forward! Update: Finally got access to my account again after 9 weeks of not being able to get in. Only after writing the Beware on my review. So I had a week turn around on getting my account access back after giving a bad review. Beware: I have been locked out of my account for 2 months now. Trying to get back in to it to no avail. I try the forgot password and it won’t send me the email, yet they continually send me promotional emails. I had 2 rewards, but by now they are probably expired. The contact form for support never appears to work, for me at least. I don’t get a confirmation that I submitted a support ticket or any notifications that I will be contacted. I can’t resign up with Facebook or my email because they are both already being used. So, as I have said to support. I’m not buying anymore Taco Bell until I can have access to my account.

Updated, the app is great now!
Unfortunately there’s no way to give this app zero stars, or I would. Had the app a couple years ago, and was triple charged on the app for a $50ish order, then reassured that two of the charges would be refunded. Didn’t happen until extensive phone calls were made, so I deleted the app, no big deal. I figured, as a year or so went by, the bugs would be worked out, and got the app again last year. Couldn’t log into my account, or even create a new account. Deleted again. Today, I decided to try it again. Surprise surprise. Can’t log into or create an account, and now the app won’t even allow me to select a location to start. If I’m the only one, then awesome. Keep up the hard work, but if this is a common occurrence, why even have the app available to the public? Hope this review helps, and best wishes to the developers! Update: I decided to give the app another shot today. It worked great for us this time so I wanted to be fair and not leave the rating at one star. Developers, whatever you did, great work! Please keep it up, as we look forward to continuing its use. Thank you! -
I like to modify my order a fair amount and I just feel anxious and awkward trying to sort it out in line or in the drive through. This makes it a lot easier and also insures the order is correct.

App is much better but still has issues
I’ve had no issues with the app until the past couple of weeks. I pulled up, placed my order, and noticed that the app started acting glitchy. It froze and then took me back to the menu. Hmm.. so I looked at my email to see no confirmation, but when I looked at my bank account it took out the money so I walked inside and told them what happened. The manager came up and told me they didn’t get my order so I showed him my bank transaction. To prove I bought it and they made it for me. You could tell he was just as frustrated as I was. Yesterday I was at a different location, I pull up change and confirmed the new address and places the order. I walk in.. the employees didn’t get my order! I was like what?? So I look at it and it sent it to another Taco Bell 🤦♀️ and it’s like not even close to where I was. Neither stores can do anything there about it. Luckily there is a number for Taco Bell that they gave me and they were super nice, so I’m waiting on my money but man what an inconvenience. Still love Taco Bell though! Will probably skip the app for a little while lol -
App works great. Employees mess up the order
Very easy ordering and modifying the order. The big problem his employees not paying attention. Last time I ordered from 60 Vandenburgh Avenue In Troy New York. I ordered a burrito with no guacamole and instead they put so much in the Burrito it was oozing out of both ends. Which I didn’t find out until I was back home. And this was not the only time stuff like this happened. We’re given the option to change the product we’re purchasing. Like myself ,I don’t like the refried beans or the sour cream. So I usually remove them and add black beans and guacamole. But then when I pick it up and get home and look at the product it ends up having sour cream and refried beans after I paid extra for add-ons that I wanted. and I know it’s not all the stores and I know it’s not all the employees. Maybe somehow on the screen that the employee is looking at if anything is removed or anything added would be lit up in different colors. Maybe it’s already that way I don’t know. But when you’re the only customer at the store and they mess up the orders. It gets old pretty quick

The app is slowly getting better, many of the issues I had and things I hoped for have been fixed or added. Main gripe I have now is still being unable to specify if I want a drink with extra/easy/no ice, since nearly every time everyone I order for prefers no ice.

Five stars before glitch
Update: I was finally able to reset password, store connectivity seems to be up and running again. Moved to 4 stars until the app proves it will work seamlessly again like it did the first two weeks after downloading... if no more issues will move to 5! Original: This app is fantastic... until it kicks you off and won’t let you back on. I guess I was using it too frequently! Seriously though, the app is attractive, user friendly, and dangerous for late night cravings. However, on trying to order one night from the same store I had used it for many times before, upon checkout/submit order it told me that the connection with store was lost. I thought this to be a mistake so I tried again, and again, and again. I was starting to get nervous that maybe my order was going through and just getting run over and over. But that was not the case. Using Apple Pay, none went through but what was worse, it logged me out of the app, I couldn’t remember my password, and then the forget password functionality told me user access denied. I can’t get back into the app... I’m in the phantom zone! Taco Bell is easily losing $15/wk keeping me out of the app. Please fix this bug!!!

Pretty decent app, rewards are nice but some annoyances. You aren't able to change your ice preference for drinks, there is no option to select Dr. Pepper, and payments always fail when using an Amex.
-
Always order thru the app. If you don't, you won't get any points towards a reward. $7.25 not well spent because I was driving and didn't think to use this app seeing as there was no line.

Ordering made 10x more difficult
I've tried using this app 3 times. The first two times I selected which location I wanted it at and somewhere along the way it chose a different store across town and I didn't find out until I was at the one I wanted to order from. I even payed special attention the second time to make sure it wasn't user error and it still somehow changed it. I waited in a 30 minute line twice both times because the service was slow and I didn't find out that it wasn't at that location until I was at the window. That's 2 hours of waiting overall for a taco! If it wasn't too late to have gone inside to get it but at that point only the drive thru was open. The third time I tried using it wasn't as bad but I like jalepenos so I tried adding them to my order and the option was there but every time I tried selecting it, it either didn't even show that I tried adding them but every now and then it would show it checked off for a split second before unchecking itself, I tried it with multiple different food items to make sure it wasn't just that my item couldn't have jalepenos added to it. It wouldn't let me add it to a single item. And I can't find any explanation for it. This app is supposed to make ordering easier but it's done nothing but add 10 times more stress to trying to get food. The restaurants weren't at all helpful when I explained the situation. At this point in about ready to give up on taco bell altogether and use the mcdonalds app next time. -
Stores locally constantly disappear so you can't find your closest store to order from. The local stores call corporate to let them know the issue with online ordering. Yet somehow they don't make any effort to fix the issue or come up with a work around! The manager said Its been 2months since they have had an online order. Yet when you try to order a quesarito the worker will say "you have to order through the TB app", knowing damn well their store won't show up on the app. IT'S JUST SAD TB..
-
Frustrating when you look at "my cravings" area on the app of my favorite items they all say no longer available. This is five different items that I found over the last couple years. The lack of consistency with the menu and ingredients makes the app extremely hard to use. Every single time you log in your favorite items are no longer sold why even have that option in the app.

This app is useless
There is no reason to upload this App as it simply has no point. I bought $40 of gift cards to get an additional bonus and am unable to use them. You can’t pay with the e-gift cards you buy through at a Taco Bell as they don’t have the capability to type in the gift card number. So you have to use the App to mobile order, and that is slower than any other App on Earth. Oh and once you get a couple things in your cart to checkout, you absolutely cannot pay for them with the gift cards you bought through Taco Bell. So it was a complete waste of money and I’d like my money back. DO NOT bother using this App and definitely don’t buy gift cards from Taco Bell. UPDATE 3/28 All I’ve wanted to do is use the App enough to use the balance I had left on the gift card. But still it only works 1 out of 4 times and I end up having to go inside and start the order over. Today was the biggest thievery of them all. After getting the order to the cart after 20 minutes of starting and restarting, my bill was 37 cents higher than the balance of my gift card. So I had to put in a credit card for the 37 cents and afterwards noticed the whole $20 order was charged to my credit card. So I still can’t get rid of the App because it’s literally STEALING money from me. Please don’t get this App. You will be sorry. How it gets such a good rating when all the recent ones are always awful I will never know. Taco Bell must be deleting them. -
My original review got deleted, but I lost $20 when I ordered breakfast and got the notice it was being made but when i arrived I was told the location hadn't served breakfast in months and they were unable to cancel my order and told me to cancel on the app, but you can't cancel or change an order once it's status is set to 'being made'. So if the place didnt serve breakfast, the app shouldn't have allowed the order to go through.

Failure after failure
The interface is very touchy and the screen jumps all over the place. It finds my closest Taco Bell. I eventually manage to order my food. It takes my email, phone number and credit card. It tells me my food will be ready in 10 min. My credit card is charged but no email receipt. So I wait. Nothing. I arrive more than 15 min after the charge hit my credit card. No order. No food. An employee tells me I need to log into my account to show her the order. I showed her the app. It does not ask for a password or name, just email, phone and credit card. Only the email can be used but a password is needed. The manager tells me I cannot get food because I have no receipt and I cannot get a refund because I ordered through the app and not his store. I have to take it up with customer support. Fine. It’s at this point when I realized if I reopened my app, as if to start a new order it saved my info. But it shows no order. Whatever. I’m hungry, I’m here. I go to the register and repeat my order to the woman at the register, she stops me and tells me one of the meals I ordered doesn’t exist. In the app, for this particular store, there was a meal containing 2 chalupa supremes, a taco and a drink. So I asked about it again as it is also offered on Taco Bell’s website. The cashier’s words were “that combo does not exist in any Taco Bell anywhere””there is no Taco Bell where you can order that.” So I left without food that I already paid for. -
Orders that register on the app as complete are sometimes never even received by the designated store. The company doesn't give any way for the employees to help you. I'm glad my order wasn't too big, but this is unacceptable. You can't just accept a payment and refuse to serve a customer.

Major Flaws
Let me start by saying I have used many different apps through the App Store for food services and restaurants. This app, by far, has caused me the most headache for trying to figure out what I want to eat. The first thing that happens when opening the app is it displays an error message stating “Oops! Well this is embarrassing...” the message goes on for longer. It leaves me with a button to go to the home page. I press the button and does just that. At the home page, or menu as it takes me to, if I click on any category of food so I can figure out what I want to eat, it displays the same error and takes me back to the menu. The only way I can get to see the menu is the top slide bar with the categories. By the time I figure out what I want, I could have ordered at the drive-thru and paid. Since I have been experiencing this flaw since installing, I have never used the app to order food. Other apps have given me such great results and streamlined the ordering process, unfortunately, this app is an inconvenience. I truly refuse to use the app as I have been having many issues. If this is how a more personalized experience feels then it is a disgrace to have this app anywhere near my phone. Two stars for a review is being generous. The reason for two is I was able to still find what I wanted to eat, but nothing else redeems the rest of the stars. -
If I try and order anything from the menu, even a basic crunchy taco, it says time not available and the item in my cart is no longer available. This is very frustrating as I go directly to the store and order the same thing in the drive thru no problem but there is an issue with the app so I can no longer order anything through it.

… wish I could have used the app.
I decided to open up my Taco Bell app and give it a try. I’ve had it for a long while but just didn’t use it. First things first… completely new app. No big deal. I wasn’t to familiar with the old app. I knew I had an account. Go to sign in and it says access denied. Go to recover my password and it says something similar. So I thought maybe new app new log in. Go to create, email is in use. Delete the app and reinstall. Now it’s working and we’re logged in! I use a lot of apps to order but this one didn’t feel user friendly to me at all. I finally found the coupons. There’s one for 15% off. Great! How hard can this be… we’re just ordering some food after all. I clicked on the grande box. The one with tacos and burritos. Get the burritos in, everything’s going smoothly. Go to the tacos. Soft tacos. I needed these to be customized three different ways. Put the first one in. Go to start the second specialty set. It’s lumping those with the first soft tacos I set up. I deleted and tried again. I repeated this process several times before showing my IT boyfriend the issue I was experiencing. I wanted to make sure I was doing it right. Yep. I was doing it right. Again and again. After about the sixth try I gave up. We aren’t a family who will all eat the same type of soft taco. So no 15% off for me. Nope. Why you ask… because I went through the drive through. Coupon states only good for mobile or online ordering.

Since I have been experiencing this flaw since installing, I have never used the app to order food. Other apps have given me such great results and streamlined the ordering process, unfortunately, this app is an inconvenience. I truly refuse to use the app as I have been having many issues. If this is how a more personalized experience feels then it is a disgrace to have this app anywhere near my phone. Two stars for a review is being generous. The reason for two is I was able to still find what I wanted to eat, but nothing else redeems the rest of the stars. -
This app is so frustrating. It signs me out constantly and IT DOESN'T ACCEPT CHASE CARDS. Every single time I try to pay with *any* Chase card, it says "We're having trouble processing your selected payment." Seriously, Taco Bell?! 4 grand in my bank and I can't get $30 worth of tacos 🤦♀️ fix this, please

Broken. Can't submit any order. Google pay won't take and it won't take any credit cards. Update. The problem is you can't submit the order without putting in your name. The name entry box fails to show up sometimes.

Didn’t receive whole order.
So last night was the first time I downloaded and used the Taco Bell app instead of ordering inside/drive thru. The lady at the window was very nice and when she handed us the bag it was sealed shut, plus there was a long line and I was just ready to get home to eat and go to bed, so we didn’t bother checking. We’ve never had issues with wrong orders before so checking the order didn’t cross our minds. Unfortunately when we got home and pulled all of the food out we were missing two desserts and all of our sauces we asked for. I checked the receipt to see if I made a mistake when I placed the order online since it’d been my first time using the app, and everything was correct on the receipt. We didn’t want to make the drive back to the store and wait in line again, so we just took the loss. Even better, when we finally started eating, I figured out the steak quesarito wasn’t even made right with the ingredients that was listed on the app. I was hungry so I ate it anyways.. with no sauce. I’m not saying I won’t go back, it’s just that Taco Bell has never disappointed this Taco Belle before. I’m not sure if the items were overlooked or if there is something confusing that just happens with the online/APP orders or what. I just thought I should leave this here. *Happy New Year*

Ordering made 10x more difficult
I've tried using this app 3 times. The first two times I selected which location I wanted it at and somewhere along the way it chose a different store across town and I didn't find out until I was at the one I wanted to order from. I even payed special attention the second time to make sure it wasn't user error and it still somehow changed it. I waited in a 30 minute line twice both times because the service was slow and I didn't find out that it wasn't at that location until I was at the window. That's 2 hours of waiting overall for a taco! If it wasn't too late to have gone inside to get it but at that point only the drive thru was open. The third time I tried using it wasn't as bad but I like jalepenos so I tried adding them to my order and the option was there but every time I tried selecting it, it either didn't even show that I tried adding them but every now and then it would show it checked off for a split second before unchecking itself, I tried it with multiple different food items to make sure it wasn't just that my item couldn't have jalepenos added to it. It wouldn't let me add it to a single item. And I can't find any explanation for it. This app is supposed to make ordering easier but it's done nothing but add 10 times more stress to trying to get food. The restaurants weren't at all helpful when I explained the situation. At this point in about ready to give up on taco bell altogether and use the mcdonalds app next time. -
Stores locally constantly disappear so you can't find your closest store to order from. The local stores call corporate to let them know the issue with online ordering. Yet somehow they don't make any effort to fix the issue or come up with a work around! The manager said Its been 2months since they have had an online order. Yet when you try to order a quesarito the worker will say "you have to order through the TB app", knowing damn well their store won't show up on the app. IT'S JUST SAD TB..

Frustrating when you look at "my cravings" area on the app of my favorite items they all say no longer available. This is five different items that I found over the last couple years. The lack of consistency with the menu and ingredients makes the app extremely hard to use. Every single time you log in your favorite items are no longer sold why even have that option in the app.

This app is useless
There is no reason to upload this App as it simply has no point. I bought $40 of gift cards to get an additional bonus and am unable to use them. You can’t pay with the e-gift cards you buy through at a Taco Bell as they don’t have the capability to type in the gift card number. So you have to use the App to mobile order, and that is slower than any other App on Earth. Oh and once you get a couple things in your cart to checkout, you absolutely cannot pay for them with the gift cards you bought through Taco Bell. So it was a complete waste of money and I’d like my money back. DO NOT bother using this App and definitely don’t buy gift cards from Taco Bell. UPDATE 3/28 All I’ve wanted to do is use the App enough to use the balance I had left on the gift card. But still it only works 1 out of 4 times and I end up having to go inside and start the order over. Today was the biggest thievery of them all. After getting the order to the cart after 20 minutes of starting and restarting, my bill was 37 cents higher than the balance of my gift card. So I had to put in a credit card for the 37 cents and afterwards noticed the whole $20 order was charged to my credit card. So I still can’t get rid of the App because it’s literally STEALING money from me. Please don’t get this App. You will be sorry. How it gets such a good rating when all the recent ones are always awful I will never know. Taco Bell must be deleting them. -
My original review got deleted, but I lost $20 when I ordered breakfast and got the notice it was being made but when i arrived I was told the location hadn't served breakfast in months and they were unable to cancel my order and told me to cancel on the app, but you can't cancel or change an order once it's status is set to 'being made'. So if the place didnt serve breakfast, the app shouldn't have allowed the order to go through.

Failure after failure
The interface is very touchy and the screen jumps all over the place. It finds my closest Taco Bell. I eventually manage to order my food. It takes my email, phone number and credit card. It tells me my food will be ready in 10 min. My credit card is charged but no email receipt. So I wait. Nothing. I arrive more than 15 min after the charge hit my credit card. No order. No food. An employee tells me I need to log into my account to show her the order. I showed her the app. It does not ask for a password or name, just email, phone and credit card. Only the email can be used but a password is needed. The manager tells me I cannot get food because I have no receipt and I cannot get a refund because I ordered through the app and not his store. I have to take it up with customer support. Fine. It’s at this point when I realized if I reopened my app, as if to start a new order it saved my info. But it shows no order. Whatever. I’m hungry, I’m here. I go to the register and repeat my order to the woman at the register, she stops me and tells me one of the meals I ordered doesn’t exist. In the app, for this particular store, there was a meal containing 2 chalupa supremes, a taco and a drink. So I asked about it again as it is also offered on Taco Bell’s website. The cashier’s words were “that combo does not exist in any Taco Bell anywhere””there is no Taco Bell where you can order that.” So I left without food that I already paid for. -
Orders that register on the app as complete are sometimes never even received by the designated store. The company doesn't give any way for the employees to help you. I'm glad my order wasn't too big, but this is unacceptable. You can't just accept a payment and refuse to serve a customer.

If I try and order anything from the menu, even a basic crunchy taco, it says time not available and the item in my cart is no longer available. This is very frustrating as I go directly to the store and order the same thing in the drive thru no problem but there is an issue with the app so I can no longer order anything through it.

… wish I could have used the app.
I decided to open up my Taco Bell app and give it a try. I’ve had it for a long while but just didn’t use it. First things first… completely new app. No big deal. I wasn’t to familiar with the old app. I knew I had an account. Go to sign in and it says access denied. Go to recover my password and it says something similar. So I thought maybe new app new log in. Go to create, email is in use. Delete the app and reinstall. Now it’s working and we’re logged in! I use a lot of apps to order but this one didn’t feel user friendly to me at all. I finally found the coupons. There’s one for 15% off. Great! How hard can this be… we’re just ordering some food after all. I clicked on the grande box. The one with tacos and burritos. Get the burritos in, everything’s going smoothly. Go to the tacos. Soft tacos. I needed these to be customized three different ways. Put the first one in. Go to start the second specialty set. It’s lumping those with the first soft tacos I set up. I deleted and tried again. I repeated this process several times before showing my IT boyfriend the issue I was experiencing. I wanted to make sure I was doing it right. Yep. I was doing it right. Again and again. After about the sixth try I gave up. We aren’t a family who will all eat the same type of soft taco. So no 15% off for me. Nope. Why you ask… because I went through the drive through. Coupon states only good for mobile or online ordering. -
No pickup times available
I have tried to place an order several times and found that the store i was trying to order from had no pick up times available, so I cannot complete the order. On several occasions, I am sitting in the parking lot of the store because it has taken the entire drive time to try and complete my order on the app — the store is obviously open, but still no pickup times are available. When I questioned one manager about the app, he said, “I didn’t even know we had an app” — I guess corporate needs to work on pushing out information to their stores and franchisees. Another frustration is that when you try to choose a pick up time, you have to choose an option in 15 minute increments. So, usually, I will be 5 minutes late or 10 minutes early to a location. Then, it seems that they don’t make the food until you get there and talk to someone, so what is the point of ordering ahead? I also don’t like that you have to choose your pickup method before you get to the store. So, if I choose drive-thru and then arrive at the store and there are 15 cars in the drive-thru line, I am stuck. So far, only the McDonald’s app lets you choose when you get to the store. Overall, the Taco Bell app has been a frustrating experience — and that is only for the 2 times I have gotten it to work. For the other 5 times where I couldn’t even place my order it was worse.
