Accelerated Backwards Time Travel
Wow! Using this is like time traveling back to 2008. I loved the ShopRite app that allowed you to click directly on a coupon and then be directed to the products covered by that coupon. I loved being able to look at past purchases and searches. I loved the quick ease at which I could shop from home.
I am now forced to use this Wakefern app, that lost all of the customer friendly improvements that ShopRite added to the app over the years.
Now I clip a coupon, take a screenshot so I can remember how many I have to buy, search for the item and correct size, click the number needed and then return to the coupons. It took 35 minutes the last time because I tried to remember each item. My account, after making a new password, didn’t carry any data over from the ShopRite so I can’t search for previous items.
So now, as I open the app again to shop from home, I decided I won’t be anymore. I will happily go to Giants where I can quickly get in and out by scanning my items and putting them in the bag as I shop. As someone who has certifications and degrees in aspects of technology, I am utterly frustrated and angered to not just go back in time by a frivolous feature, but to go back in time more than a decade of lost features.

After last update doesn’t connect
Worked great until about a month ago. Now it wont connect to the hotspot.
Never Works
Every time I go for my weekly food shopping I can never get this app to work. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times and it just never connects to the stores WiFi and won’t work over mobile connection. Really bummed because I have gone to other stores over Shoprite at times Ailey because their mobile scan apps work.

Love!
I love this app. Super simple. Have to set up with customer service first but no big deal. Now I don’t have to wait in an insane checkout line or talk to people! The WiFi in my store is hit or miss but once it reconnects it picks up where you left off. My biggest thing is I wish I could integrate my shopping list from my regular Shop Rite app that way I don’t have to go back and forth.

Problem when asked for quantity of item
I love this app until you have to enter information, such as how many of the scanned items are you purchasing. The keyboard takes up the lower half of the screen with no 'Done' button to complete the entry.
Then you are stuck!! You can't cancel, you can't scan more items, you are back to scanning at the register.
I am using an iPhone 6S for which this app is supposedly compatible.
Btw, the app hasn't been updated in over a year???? What is up with that?

Amazing when works properly....
I loved using this app especially during the pandemic. I don’t need to use a cashier or have someone touch my items again when bagging. (I know items get touched when on the shelf. But this avoids one more interaction.) It made shopping so much easier and I was in and out in no time flat! However, for the past few visits, the app has stopped connecting properly. It tells me there is a problem connecting. I can see I am connected to the stores WiFi and I have agreed to the login process. But when I go back to the app it has a problem connecting. I brag about the convenience of this app to everyone but I have become so disappointed and wished it would work again.

Convenient & Timesaving App
This app is great. I open my reusable bags in my cart, scan and pack the items in the bags, scan my phone once at checkout, and I’m gone in half the time of my usual shopping trip. I just wish more ShopRite stores would allow access to the app.
Needs updating
Using app for about four years now. The most annoying thing about this app are the times when it will not connect to store wifi system, which happens quite frequently. Also, when using app, if IPhone screen locks...app disconnects from wifi and there is a lag to re-connect. Stop-and-Shop supermarkets have a much better app that has worked flawlessly for me.

First time use
For the first time using the app, I was pleasantly surprised! I was expecting a hiccup or two for the first time, but they were easily explained to me. The only awkward times were packing up my purchases after checking out. Maybe an area for that would be helpful. Def will use again!
Wow!! This is a definite time saver!! I pack my items, go to the kiosk, put my card in, the cashier goes over my items and I’m OUT! I don’t understand why more don’t use this option. Cuts my shopping time in half.

Works Great!
The first couple of times I used the app I ended up needing a cashier to process the order, but since then the app has worked wonderfully. I started out with small purchases, but now I regularly buy $100+ worth of groceries with no issue. It saves my wife and I so much time at the store. Being able to bag groceries as we go, and then being able to just waltz through self checkout has made grocery shopping so much more convenient.
