Phone version I gave up on months ago. Now if only the personalized offers on it were for items I actually want and use! Optimum program is way better. Is Safeway planning to abandon the Scene program? I remember when it abandoned Airmiles the same thing happened — personalized offers became fewer and irrelevant. ### 2/5 — Have earned almost no points *2026-06-24, version 7.0.30* Just learning now that the $10 I think I managed to rack up twice in years was because it happened to fluke on loading offers. I’ve missed out on a lot of points with scene card shopping at Safeway. Scanned every time I shopped for next to no rewards ### 2/5 — Useless Updates *2026-02-05, version 7.0.19* Again, another app that fails once an update is done. Suddenly now, I can’t get into the NHL game. Both this and the Sobey’s app go to a Scene “add card” page that does nothing. My number appears, but can’t escape this page to do anything. ### 4/5 — Missing the highlight / circle on the flyer *2025-11-10, version 7.0.17* While in the app, when I’m going through the flyer, I tape on the item and it puts a yellow “circle” around it as well as adding the list. Love the highlight because it’s easy to scroll through and quickly see what I’m looking for. When it’s added to the list it has the item but not the price or Scene points offer (if there is one). In middle of my shop, opened app to look at the flyer and it’s requiring me to update. I can’t use the app unless I update. I’m in a rush, the store is in area where coverage is spotty, store closes in 20 minutes and without my list I don’t know what to get. So by time it is finished I’m a lot frustrated. Open the app and there are no highlights on the flyer. Go to list, click on item, does not go back to flyer. If someone from the Safeway app team happens to read this - Please please bring back the highlight feature. It set Safeway apart and was best part of the app. ### 1/5 — New app not an improvement *2025-10-02, version 7.0.12* I really liked the Shopping List of the previous version. The new version is not as good and requires extra steps. Also more difficult to find my Scene Card to scan. Sometimes it is there and sometimes I have to delve deeper into the app to find it. ### 1/5 — Useless app *2025-09-19, version 7.0.11* The last two updates have ruined the app. It’s useless. I won’t be shopping at Safeway anymore. Well done. ### 4/5 — Scene card access now buries *2025-09-18, version 7.0.11* It used to be easy to open up your Scene+ card for the teller to scan, but now it’s inconveniently buried under your account name - 4 taps later. Please put this on the home page of the App. ### 4/5 — Scene+ *2025-09-09, version 7.0.11* Searching for products is good but can you also add the location or aisle where I can find instore. ### 1/5 — Poor responsiveness *2025-09-06, version 7.0.11* I spent over 10 mins in the store watching this app clock, trying to load. I gave up, nearly deleted it. Subpar compared to other major grocery store apps. ### 4/5 — Update stops scene card from working *2025-09-03, version 7.0.10* You shouldn’t lock the app to force an upgrade or make sure the scene card is presented when you force it ### 1/5 — Terrible *2025-08-28, version 7.0.9* The new Safeway app is terrible. I can’t log in. It freezes and crashes every time I try to access my profile. ### 1/5 — App no longer works *2025-08-21, version 7.0.9* For no reason I was kicked out and couldn’t log in again. Reset password and now the Account is disabled. Tried chat to get some help and got kicked out before done. Then chat help again and was instructed to try again in a couple of hours. Later in the day still cannot log in and the account shows as disabled. Tried resetting the password again without success. I guess nobody cares about this app……… ### 1/5 — Worst loyalty app *2025-08-14, version 7.0.9* Won’t load, can’t log n from app! Spins round and round. By far the worst loyalty app I have encountered. The issues have been ongoing for years ### 4/5 — Works good! *2025-08-13, version 7.0.9* This new app is Smooth, responsive, and super handy for checking deals before heading to the store. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — “Something went wrong” *2026-08-06, version 7.0.34* I keep getting an error message that says ‘Something went wrong.’ I can’t log in, I can’t view the flyer, and I can’t see any photos either. Could you please help me resolve this? ### 1/5 — Blank notifications? What’s the point? *2026-07-01, version 7.0.30* Still freaking hasn't been fixed yet. I'm receiving notifications, when I click on them. The app shows a blank screen. So stupid. Stupid how Safeway sends a notification, but when you actually click on it, the app opens to a completely blank screen. No offer, no message, nothing. What’s the point of sending notifications if the app can’t even show the content? Fix your app — notifications should actually lead somewhere. All the time too. ### 1/5 — Slow to open. Good for offers but little else *2026-06-21, version 7.0.30* Why is it so slow to open the app each time. First you get the Safeway loading add and then another loading page before you get to the home page. I like the scene offers page but otherwise the app is pointless as this is not an online ordering app (that’s voila) and the search/favourite features are pretty basic and kinda pointless ### 1/5 — Terrible App *2026-06-18, version 7.0.30* App never works. In store function is useless as store wifi is terrible and cellular service doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — App *2026-06-11, version 7.0.30* Every time I login it says password or login is not valid ### 1/5 — Lost app *2026-03-23, version 7.0.23* App doesn’t open now. Tried to remove and reinstall. Still wont open. Any ideas ### 1/5 — Hard to get into *2026-03-18, version 7.0.23* I like security. I really do. But can we agree that if an app is so secure that I can’t get into my own account, it’s gone too far? I forgot, as sometimes happens on busy days, to update my offers at home on my iPad (on which it works fine). Any other shopping app I could just open on my phone while I’m on my way. With this app, it won’t let me in by any means. I either have to waste time on a busy day to return home to update my offers on my iPad or forego the deals and savings. Please fix this! ### 1/5 — . *2026-03-08, version 7.0.20* Useless, garbage app. Terrible UX & crashes upon going to cart, throughly wasting all time spent navigating this pos ### 1/5 — Blank notifications? What’s the point? *2025-12-12, version 7.0.18* Stupid how Safeway sends a notification, but when you actually click on it, the app opens to a completely blank screen. No offer, no message, nothing. What’s the point of sending notifications if the app can’t even show the content? Fix your app — notifications should actually lead somewhere. All the time too. ### 1/5 — Not working *2025-12-05, version 7.0.18* I try to click and open up the app and it will not open. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Excellent app *2026-06-03, version 7.0.30* Makes it easy to view scene+ reward offers and the flyer ### 5/5 — ALWAYS FRESH *2025-10-30, version 7.0.16* I’ve bought from Safeway for a long time now workers are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Prices are fair and you can have it delivered to your door. ### 5/5 — Useful app! *2025-09-11, version 7.0.11* Great experience using the app. Easy to navigate and best part is the search feature. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2025-09-11, version 7.0.11* Very useful ### 5/5 — Offers!!! *2025-08-17, version 7.0.9* Easy to use, and the personal note feature on recipes is a nice touch ### 5/5 — Great for Weekly Flyers & Personalized Offers *2025-08-08, version 7.0.9* The Safeway app is honestly super handy if you like keeping up with weekly deals and personalized offers. I open it every time before a grocery run — the digital flyer makes it easy to see what’s on sale, and it helps me plan and jot down what I need. It’s a simple way to save without doing much work. ### 5/5 — New to Safeway App *2025-04-21, version 4.3.9* I just signed onto the Safeway app. Looks like it might be OK. All the very best. We have shopped at Canada Safeway for decades. Like about “six decades”. Yep! We’re a loyal couple. Thank you. ### 5/5 — Offers, Recipes & Giveaways! *2025-04-06, version 4.3.5* Awesome offers every week, plus the built-in recipes and shopping list make life easier. The gamified grocery giveaways keep things interesting. ### 5/5 — This is CANADA SAFEWAY *2019-02-06* Your zip code won’t work because this is CANADA Safeway. Different ownership, different country. The two share a name but that’s about it these days. ### 5/5 — Love my store app *2017-09-14* Miles all the way --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
