### 3/5 — Please Add Apple Pay

*2023-10-27*

Love phoenix theaters, but please add Apple Pay. Do that and it’s a 5 star app!

### 3/5 — Easy to navigate

*2023-07-15, version 5.09.5*

Easy to do and choose seats. I think the 2.00 each “convenience” fee is a little over the top though.

### 3/5 — make Apple Pay available

*2023-07-02, version 5.09.5*

End the online purchase 
 junk fees!!!  Add Apple Pay as a payment option.

### 3/5 — Link card info

*2023-04-11, version 5.09.5*

This app does not connect to my card. Sometimes it’s an inconvenience

### 3/5 — Love the Theatre, not a fan of the app

*2023-04-09*

I am loving our new Phoenix theatre:  seats are amazing, screen beautiful, all the workers helpful and pleasant, but the app has issues. Every time I go into it, I have to save my local theater to be taken to the movie choices.  And when you book a movie, I have to put my credit card info in each time. The last knock is the sound….WAY too much!  Louder isn’t always better. The Atmos theatre is almost sensory overload and if you are in theatre 2, you can’t enjoy your movie for all the rumbling next door. But all these things are “fixable”……

### 1/5 — No New Albany months later?!

*2023-09-07, version 5.09.5*

Hey jerks, when you gonna add New Albany, IN theater to your app? You took over Regal and promised stuff but I can’t even look up movie times because it’s not in your app. Way to go. Stop being idiots.

### 1/5 — Purchases

*2023-05-13, version 5.09.5*

Now I can’t use any other card than a credit card?

### 1/5 — Worthless App

*2022-04-14, version 5.04.801*

The theater that is in my area is NOT included in the location choices. When the theater name is entered to theater search box, the answer is “no theater found.”

### 1/5 — No option to provide my current location

*2022-03-10, version 5.04.801*

I was suggested theaters that are out of state and when I look around to submit my current location I did find an option to do just that. Please fix your app, it is in the current state unusable.

### 1/5 — Old app better

*2019-12-18, version 5.04.800*

This app looks very amateur, and appears to be formatted only for simple cell phone screens. Like apps designed and developed 10 years ago. All kinds of functionality is missing. Looks like someone made a mistake and rolled out a 10 year old application.

### 1/5 — Old app was better

*2019-11-15, version 1.0*

I can’t log into my account anymore and see previously purchased tickets or even have my info saved when going to buy tickets now.  There isn’t even a login feature. I’ll probably never buy tickets ahead of time again now.

### 1/5 — Option to use a gift card?

*2019-11-03, version 1.0*

The other app let me use my gift card on it, this new app has no option to pay with this. This app is worse then the previous one.

### 2/5 — Seat gap

*2024-03-29, version 5.09.5*

I understand the reasoning behind preventing people from skipping every other seat when making reservations, but with only 5 seats reserved in the theater 2 hours before the show is that really necessary ?

### 2/5 — Seat choice option needs reviewed

*2023-08-06, version 5.09.5*

When you go to choose a seat and u have a party of 4 people and another party only bought 3 seat and left an open seat between the 4 seats you want the app doesn’t allow you to choose the 4 seats you want bc it forages you to have to choose the open seat left by the party of 3… That is wrong and needs to be changed! You should be able to choose any seats your party wants. I shouldn’t have to choose to be next to another party if I don’t want to. The freedom of choice should be allowed for any party to choose the seats they desire.

### 3/5 — Please save my CC info

*2025-07-26, version 5.0.13.401*

App is great, but would be better if I didn’t have to re enter CC info every time I check out.

## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Excellent no frills app

*2025-06-28, version 5.09.5*

Works great, just wish I could pay via the saved cards on my phone instead of having to enter card info every time.

### 5/5 — Great theater

*2024-12-07, version 5.09.5*

My wife and I have seen movies almost weekly. Since the opening, and have taken a few family members along . All experiences have been great . I am surprised that there isn’t a loyalty program .

### 5/5 — Worth getting

*2024-08-08, version 5.09.5*

We enjoy the theater, amenities and price.  Highly recommend getting tickets before showing up at your local theater with this easy to use app.

### 5/5 — Classic movies, Revolutionary experience

*2024-05-06, version 5.09.5*

These theatres have evolved the movie theatre experience with their Dolby Atmos sound system, nicely balanced popcorn flavor, and well comforting chairs. Not to mention the app which is very user friendly and easy to buy tickets with. 10/10

### 5/5 — My Personal Favorite Movie Theater

*2023-06-26, version 5.09.5*

I’ve lost count on how many movies I’ve seen at the Phoenix Northtowne Theatre. Getting my tickets at the counter is okay but reserving a seat ahead of time through the app makes it so much easier. Until the other movie theaters around me steps up their game Phoenix Northtowne Theatres is the only movie theater I’ll go to to watch my movies, eat my snacks, and enjoy their recline, heated seats.

### 5/5 — IDK what these other reviews are on about

*2020-01-12, version 5.04.800*

the apps looks great

### 4/5 — Good app for a great theater

*2026-02-13, version 5.0.13.401*

App is functional enough, but it is mildly annoying that I have to enter my payment info every time. I’d love to see Apple Pay support, or the option to add my gift card to my account once and save it.

### 4/5 — Love the Theatre, not a fan of the app

*2026-02-08, version 5.0.13.401*

I am loving our Phoenix theatre:  seats are  comfortable, screen beautiful, all the workers helpful and pleasant, but the app has an issue I thought would be  fixed by now.  When you book a movie, you have to put your credit card info in each time. Not a deal breaker, but a pain. Apple Pay would be awesome!  Only other knock is the sound…
although the Dolby Atmos is amazing it is WAY too much!  Louder isn’t always better. The Atmos theatre is almost sensory overload and if you are in theatre 2, you can’t enjoy your movie for all the rumbling next door. But all these things are “fixable”……

### 4/5 — Outdated payment process

*2025-09-26, version 5.0.13.401*

For the love of god, please add Apple Pay as an option. The current process is cumbersome and buggy. I just tried to by two tickets and could not, got a random error before I was even prompted for the credit card. I had to quit the app and go back, only to find the seats I wanted locked since the previous error. 
So, please add Apple Pay!
