Alamo Drafthouse tests app-only ordering for screenings

Alamo Drafthouse will require patrons to place food and drink orders via the theater’s mobile app before and during screenings starting mid-February, replacing the paper order cards. The shift aims to boost efficiency and reduce mid-film disruptions, but it has sparked backlash from patrons who value the brand’s phone-free, immersive experience and some say they’ll switch theaters. The company says no layoffs will occur and base wages will stay the same, while critics worry about ordering hassles and accessibility for dietary needs.

Order Domino's Pizza with Apple CarPlay

Domino's has launched a simplified version of its app on Apple CarPlay, allowing customers to order pizza from their car's infotainment screen. The feature enables users to "Tap to Order" or "Call to Order" hands-free, with the latter option allowing for customisation. The app also displays the pizza tracker to let customers know when to expect their order. The move follows previous experiments with instant pizza orders via a pizza emoji text and a "zero click" app that instantly orders pizza at launch.
