Transact Mobile Ordering

This app is very user friendly and fun to use! It would be helpful if the restaurant status (whether it’s open or closed) could load when I open the app (after it’s been opened since before the restaurants closed) so I don’t have to find out after clicking the restaurant and wondering why there’s nothing there (only after going back to the main page after clicking the once-open restaurant does the page update). The app is very useful for ordering ahead! I also like all of the customizations one can make to the various meal options! Also, good job to whoever designed this app’s user interface. It is clean and organized in a way that surpasses many apps that exist these days. One thing I would suggest, however, would be to, in the Reorder tab, add spacing between the restaurant name and the last item in the list for the previous restaurant. Additionally, adding an “X” (close) button to the app icon change pop-up would be helpful. Overall, this is an extremely well designed app! Functions, design and all!

okay i was sus about this app when a lady was walking around w advertisements a few weeks ago, but i finally downloaded it and it’s freaking amazing. i was wasting half my lunch break in the copperhead jacks line, and now i can order my lunch in class and walk to the west campus dining hall to pick up a lunch that’s already made and i already paid for. i walked up, grabbed my food, and skipped past 75 college kids whose jaws had dropped to the floor. IM NEVER STANDING IN LINE AGAIN. also when you use the app for the 1st time you get FIVE DOLLARS OFF and so my whole lunch was $3 today. okay that’s all.

As campuses move to deliver meals to student dorms frequently, it is important that Transact have more specific controls over where food is delivered. The greatest granularity the app has for locations is currently by building or delivery zone. Currently, my school has decided to ask people to just include their room number alongside their dietary restrictions with the built-In allergy section during checkout. Confirmation boxes, which spawn a 1-second unskippable animation that makes for an annoying experience when scheduling multiple meals for the next day all at once, and the same for adding items to an order, should be removed. Alternately, they should stay, but they should not keep the app from being usable underneath the message.
