### 2/5 — Very confusing, poorly arranged

*2026-08-19, version 2026.27.0*

Worst app I’ve ever seen. I need to get a 10-year-old to fix it.

### 3/5 — Trouble getting into some items

*2026-07-31, version 2026.24.0*

When trying to click on Miller Lite; Large Bandage; Apples; Poise; Rubbermaid Takealones; Donuts there were no drop down options so was unable to order.

### 4/5 — App is good but could be just a little better

*2026-07-23, version 2026.23.0*

Search function could be better but otherwise a helpful app

### 2/5 — Takes too long to input my info every time

*2026-07-18, version 2026.23.0*

Every time I open the app I have to confirm my zip code. Then say no, I want pickup and not in-store shopping. It takes several seconds to load every page and get to the actual app. Why isn’t my default info saved somewhere so the homepage loads automatically? (With the option to change my defaults in the settings somewhere.)

Just now I was trying to let the app know that I was in the car on the way to pick up my order that ALREADY EXISTED and it wouldn’t let me access the ‘I’m on my way’ button until I clicked through three different setup pages.

It keeps trying to turn on shopping mode, too, which is just normal mode but with a red background and different layout? It’s really annoying but there’s no way to disable it.

Also, every single time I search I have to manually disable the “Out of stock” button. Why would you show me items I can’t buy by default? Why isn’t there an option to keep that turned off?

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-07-04, version 2026.21.0*

Excellent handle and right on time highly recommend

### 5/5 — very smart

*2026-06-24, version 2026.20.0*

Takes me to the best deals and discounts on items I actually buy 👍

### 2/5 — June upgrade broke my long established account

*2026-06-20, version 2026.20.0*

Buggier than a barbecue picnic.  Kicked me out of my account access. Errored at login for 2 days and personal info updates are rejected as in use. Pharmacy access is gone along with all the history I used for refills for my wife and myself. No contact method provided to get help with the problems.

### 4/5 — App is awesome store not so much

*2026-06-09, version 2026.18.0*

Returned a call to pharmacy at Tom Thumb in Argyle,Texas to order RX. Was put on hold 6 times never got to talk to pharmacist. 
Terrible service.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2026-06-09, version 2026.17.0*

So many good deals and savings. Today my 417 delivery order went to 336!

### 5/5 — App

*2026-06-07, version 2026.17.0*

I love this app. Love the updates and deals that’s offered.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-06-02, version 2026.13.0*

Easy to use always have fresh products and great deals

### 5/5 — Easy and Convenient

*2026-05-29*

Easy and Convenient. Except 100% of the time I order things that say are in stock, but aren’t. Then they get replaced by something entirely different for 2x the price. Other stores charge the original price of 1gal of milk for 2 half gallons of the same milk and not charge an extra $2. Or a 3 pack of Orbit gum for $6 being replaced by 3 individual packs of Tridents for $4 each. I always have to go in to return and find the items they couldn’t find by myself or just pay extra and deal with it. Yet the same chain with the same app in other cities charge the original price, even if replaced by more expensive products. It just matters on the store.

### 5/5 — I actually fw Tom Thumb heavy

*2026-05-25, version 2026.13.0*

Look I’m not here to play. I don’t trust the government I don’t trust grocery stores. I do trust my judgment. Although the products at Tom Thumb are subpar their app is actually so useful. This is the closest grocery store to me and it’s very convenient. Service is always good. The store is clean and the app is easy to use and always offering me deals and just great ad ons. I really think Tom Thumb is a great beginner grocery store for any young adult or any adult that likes convenience.

### 1/5 — Horrible App

*2026-07-15, version 2026.22.0*

Why is there an app update Every. Single. Day. ? 
Why does it fail every time i check out. Then I go update the app and it works…sometimes. Why doesnt it let me update my cart, says service error. Always buggy. Never works right. Worst app. I dread using it. We avoid Tom Thumb because of the app.

### 1/5 — Online orders

*2026-07-07, version 2026.21.1*

The online shopping experience needs updated. How is it that I order an item with a digital deal and when the item is out of stock I get a replacement for the same item, different flavor/version —still a part of the same digital coupon clipped, but they don’t apply the deals to the replacement. So I end up overpaying and have to get this issue rectified at customer service.

### 1/5 — Unable to Open up the Weekly Ad

*2026-07-01, version 2026.21.0*

For the past month I keep running into a service issue that doesn’t let me open the flyer in app. It has started to happen on my other devices with the app as well.

### 1/5 — Pharmacy App

*2026-07-01, version 2026.21.0*

Pharmacy section is NOT user friendly. Navigation extremely hard. Comment sections do NOT allow keyboard for response. Rating 1

### 1/5 — Why all the clipping?

*2026-06-17*

Why all this clipping stuff if I am a “valued member” treat me like one and give me the “deal” without me having to clip it. How does this clipping benefit me? 

To many glitches but manager assures me 9 out of 10 times it is the “fault”of customer for not clipping “deal” so the 1 customer that did clip it gets treated like an illiterate non-savvy app user that can’t open an app and tap the deals wanted which needs to be done hours or days before getting to store to shop. Clipping in store is useless since it does not instantly clip and load for checkout. Internet not available or spotty in-store makes app unusable for both clipping and scanning items. Paper ads not matching app deals i.e. raspberries $1.99 in paper ad compared to raspberries in app $3.99. Posted deals on shelves never are in app or paper ads and never ring up as posted.

**Developer response:** Hello there, thank you for your feedback — we truly appreciate it. We’re sharing your comments with our app team to help improve the experience. For quick support, you can chat with us through the app’s FAQ in Settings or via our website on your mobile browser.

### 1/5 — Effectively Requires Apple Pay

*2026-06-11, version 2026.18.0*

No way to make another payment option default from within the App.  A BS app!  Do you know any other App that does this?   Give iOS users the flexibility of Android!

### 1/5 — Latest update not usable on iPad

*2026-06-06, version 2026.17.0*

I have been a fan and heavy user of this app from the beginning but the last update made it unusable on an iPad.  The menu options at the top of the page are hidden by the bar to choose delivery or in store pick up.  Works fine on my iPhone

### 1/5 — Layout

*2026-05-20, version 2026.13.0*

Layout sucks… icons everywhere. Copy Target

### 1/5 — Update

*2026-05-19, version 2026.13.0*

Please update your app. It is becoming such a hassle when your app keeps bringing up error messages saying “somthing is wrong”. It cant simply calculate coupons when switch from store to store because “its too many items”.

### 1/5 — Forced survey

*2026-05-08, version 2026.13.0*

You can’t even use the app until you fill out a survey. Another corporation greedy for your information. And there’s no way to track pharmacy orders. The day I ordered it, it said it was out for delivery, which was obviously a lie. And there’s no way to track it. It’s a 5 hour window which is wild. They also lie and sell next day delivery’s on Friday even though they don’t do deliveries on Saturday.

### 5/5 — New Store

*2026-07-17, version 2026.23.0*

### 5/5 — Exceeds Expectations

*2026-07-11, version 2026.22.0*

I was highly impressed by Tom Thumbs app. It is very easy to use and is well designed. I love that they reward you for staying fit if you connect Apple health! The recipes and AI meal prepping are some too! Well done Tom Thumb!
