Banner ads, really??

Edit: they have now added mandatory ads to sit through before using the app!! Down to 1 from 2 stars now
Don’t use. The coupons exist in store at checkout too.

They just recently added in banner space for online ads so they can collect ad revenue from sponsored products while getting you to use their advertisement of an app
They have the “digital” coupons available at checkout also, just use those.

Annoying to use

UI is bad. Not good to use

Grocery delivery

I rely on shopping and delivery of my groceries and I appreciate the easy shopping in the app and the ability to easily set up delivery

Delivery vs pickup

Good app except when I mistakenly didn’t choose correct pickup/delivery option. It makes me start all over when I change delivery type.

Terrible app too hard to find weekly af

Too hard to zing to weekly ad. I rarely shop QFC

Useless garbage

Do yourself a favor, and shop at the store in-person. Every order I’ve placed through the app has had at least one item be out of stock, despite the app never even indicating that it was low or out of stock. Paradoxically, there’s always items that are in stock in the app, yet when you go to select a time for delivery or pick-up, the app will tell you to replace those items because apparently they’re out of stock 🤷🏻‍♀️ For example, the PS Pepperoni & Mozzarella rolls are always in stock in the app, and it’s not until the shopper is working on my order that they mark the item as out of stock. It’s also worth mentioning that the “Do not substitute” choice is basically optional to the illiterate Instacart shoppers, who will ignore it and buy a completely irrelevant item to substitute the product you explicitly marked as “Do not substitute” without asking for your approval, which you’ll then have to jump through hoops with an AI bot to get your refund. And in the time it takes to resolve all of your orders’ issues, you could’ve gone to the store and completed your shopping. So if you have a meal that you’re planning on making, good luck getting the items you ordered through the app.

Poor poor login

Can only login now and then. Two factor authentication code takes forever to get to you. Sometimes longer than its validity period. Useless!!!

Bad icon change

Really dumb to remove the QFC Q and replace it with the generic Kroger logo. I have two Kroger-owned stores in my area, Fred Meyer and QFC. This makes differentiating between the two apps for the different stores more difficult.

Banner ads, really??

Don’t use. The coupons exist in store at checkout too.

So inconvenient

This app is such a waste of time and a bad reason to collect data. They do not need to have this app to offer the deal, the member card should have been enough.

Scanning items in stores redirect you to the website not this app so it doesnt work.

Its impossible to sort coupons and its such a waste of time.

Unless i am sitting on the toilet i am not clipping anything

too slow & rarely works - fix it or don’t require discounts through app - losing sales

been decades longtime shopper.
apparently I’ve only gotten these bad updated app version. it’s never worked properly. always seem to have to have cashier/Mgmt. do it manually. waste of time using app. QFC should either get it to work properly or don’t require shoppers to use app to get extra deals that just your member number can’t get you. you are losing so much in sales by not getting app to work properly. should’ve been fixed long time ago or somebody should be fired for not fixing & replaced by someone who can fix.

Albertsons app works much better, but still has its issues. low bar.

they keep updating this damn app

i got this app so i could use it OCCASIONALLY WHILE I WAS IN THE STORE which is like once a month. EVERY TIME I OPEN IT there IS AN UPDATE AND IT IS WORSE THAN THE LAST

Confusing but not unbearable

The layout isn’t very intuitive but it’s convenient for comparing prices before making a trip. I find the app hard to navigate and overly cluttered.

They added AI

I wish they had made it clear in the update notes. AI is so annoying. I wish I hadn’t applied the latest update. The app was fine without it.

What’s the point of mobile ordering if you can’t specify or buy products???

I rely heavily on the mobile ordering function and used to use it regularly. I don’t know WHAT happened in the last update, but it’s basically nonfunctional now. Any time I specify a backup and then submit my order, I re-open the order only to find my well-stocked backups on EVERY ITEM turned into “product not found”. Not only that, but items that are clearly listed as in stock and available while shopping are suddenly unavailable for DAYS at all times of day to the point where they can’t even be ordered despite having been successfully added to the cart with no low stock warnings. This is ridiculous, going back to in-person shopping with an old fashioned list.

The app is broken for Savings options!

The app does not display the savings options (weekly ad deals, digital coupons, redeem, etc) low enough at the top of the app to make them selectable, so the user can not use them at all! This happens on an iPhone as well as an iPad. Reproducible 100%! So, the app is unusable. Do you even test the app? Please fix this!

Frustrating user experience

Clipped coupons never actually sync to account for use in-store. App requires an update almost every other time I open it.

Completely useless now

The app has gotten progressively worse over the last few update cycles to the point where it’s literally useless. We have gone back to a manual shopping list because the app is that bad. When I add things to a list, they frequently don’t actually get added. The sorting by aisle doesn’t work at all. When I check something off the list, other things are checked off with it. What is going on? Are the dev and QA (if they even have one) teams really that incompetent? I NEVER leave app reviews but this is one we actually depend on for our daily lives so the fact that it has become utterly useless prompted me to speak up. FIX IT!!!

Terrible app

I’ve always used my QFC card for member discounts at the store but digital discounts appear as Clipped in the app, the discounts do not happen at register so I have to show the cashier the clipped deals on my phone. This is why I shop mostly at Safeway.

If I could give it NO Stars I would

I used to use specifically the QFC app. I have a long history shopping at QFC. All my shopping, points, lists have disappeared. The app will not load anything just sits there like a ghost. Please don't tell me to download the app cause I have. It didn't use to be like this a month ago. Also not everyone has or needs the latest and greatest phone. Even if I go to the webpage and log-in I get nothing. I can't access any coupons in my account. I'm disgusted.
