your app is so slow and lagging not just on my phone but also on my partner's... it's so frustrating
★★★★ James Warren 5/10/2026 v5.34.42

★★★★ r brook 5/8/2026 v5.34.42
One of the worst fast food apps going! very slow, rubbish payment screen and an overall waste of time! Go to McDonald's or KFC instead! Such a disappointment!
★★★★ Ryan Somers 5/7/2026 v5.34.42

★★★★ Daniel Butun 5/6/2026 v5.34.42
What's the point of having an app that isn't accepted at your primary locations like Waterloo.
★★★★ ronan newell 5/4/2026

★★★★ Luke Davies 5/3/2026 v5.34.42
poor UI, will not function properly all of the time and the integrated delivery portion of the app doesn't work at all
★★★★ Jake Coombs 4/25/2026 v5.34.42
dont work, keeps on logo for ages
★★★★ William Hynds 4/25/2026
Don't trust adverts, most are scams
★★★★ Viktor Tilson 4/24/2026
Couldn't find a regular hamburger on the app. Went into a Burger King and none of the staff could locate one on the app either. Strikes me they push the expensive menu items first on the app. Not a patch on Mac Donald's app which is slick and easy to use.
★★★★ Osh Bosh 4/24/2026 v5.34.10
for some reason anytime I try and use the app it stops loading and whenever I exit, I get a notification saying "system UI is not responding", literally only happens with this app.
★★★★ Elizabeth Owers 4/24/2026
haven't been able to open the app for months!!
★★★★ Thomas woodbine 4/23/2026 v5.29.0
terrible app doesn't load 90% of the time, which means I go to McDonald's instead because it doesn't open.sort it out if you want to be the best.
★★★★ Bradley morton 4/23/2026 v5.34.42
I love BK but the app is taking the micky, for a while now it's crashes on the load up screen saying burger king and just stays like that. I can't access my points or when I spend money which I have a few times I couldn't receive my points or use my offers. also the option for cola (with sugar in) disappeared off the options when you do a meal deal on offers, it's not even a option.... 👎👎👎 get it fixed or I might as well get rewarded elsewhere and if it gets sorted I will change my review
★★★★ James Bishop 4/22/2026 v5.34.42
app isn't working just loads
★★★★ Steven Dryland 4/22/2026 v5.34.42
app is very inconsistent on if it will load or not
★★★★ Matthew Haycock 4/21/2026 v5.34.42
Does not work for me at the moment, frozen on the opening load screen, uninstalled and reinstalled and restarted my phone to no avail
★★★★ Rob K 4/21/2026 v5.34.42
Unable to even load up now. Was fine before.
★★★★ Joe 4/19/2026 v5.34.42
Our address suddenly doesn't exist on your app anymore, when trying to go though support to get this sorted it prompts you to take a picture of your bank statement!? Absolutely not, will be going elsewhere from now on.
★★★★ john jones 4/17/2026 v5.34.42
frigging annoying app. all I wanted was a delivery and after half an hour of trying with this garbage app I gave up and went to MCs
★★★★ Jack Didcock 4/17/2026 v5.34.42
The App doesn't work half of the time so you can't access your rewards or offers so end up paying alot more money than you would if it actually loaded and gave you the access QR code!
★★★★ Jamie 4/17/2026 v5.34.42
App just does not work, doesn't open just sits on the loading page constantly. I've uninstalled and reinstalled it, same thing, pointless app.
★★★★ Poison Octus 4/16/2026
Poor. I want my order to be delivered to my address, but the app refuses to allow deliveries there, despite having 2 locations within 20 minutes of my home. Why do I have to use Uber Eats or another delivery service to get it delivered? Why all the hassle? If you don't want to allow deliveries through your own app, why allow it as an option on it at all? Useless.
★★★★ René van Buuren 4/16/2026 v5.34.42
Doesn't let you customise to have a burger without a bun. Please get with the times. Also very confusing when you customise e.g. a double cheeseburger that it comes up as having 1 patty which you can increase to 2... please actually test this stuff before you release an app!
★★★★ Krasimir Nikolov 4/15/2026 v5.34.42
app has not been working for over a week now.....
★★★★ Phil Walker 4/15/2026 v5.34.42
been using the app for a while. now it won't open. tried rebooting my phone and reinstalled the app but still just stuck on splash screen. therefore didn't make a purchase.
★★★★ Chloe Walker 4/14/2026 v5.34.42
went to a normal burger king restaurant to use my free birthday treat and the app wouldnt allow it claiming the location wasnt valid even though it was valid. thanks for wasting my time and making my birthday crappier
★★★★ Gregory Edwards 4/11/2026 v5.34.42
can't order delivery, used to be able to but now the delivery option has disappeared. still on the main page but if you go that route, when you select anything on the menu it says select restaurant for pricing. contacted customer support a few weeks ago, still no response. absolutely terrible service.
★★★★ Julian Frost 4/11/2026 v5.34.42
Can't enter address and phone number to allow delivery. A shame as I prefer BK to McDs
★★★★ Pete Pollitt 4/10/2026 v5.29.0
kept saying the request failed when trying to order with no reason why
★★★★ Tasha Altham 4/9/2026 v5.34.42
never works
★★★★ liam payne 4/9/2026 v5.34.42
hardly ever works. I go into store try get app to work and leave as it never works
★★★★ Paul Mersc 4/5/2026 v5.34.42
you spend the time building your order, getting everyone's drinks and extras, then it fails at payment. tried Google pay, error. tried iPhone app and apple pay with a different card, fails at end. absolutely useless.
★★★★ jezinbrum 4/4/2026 v5.34.42
Require an emailed pin sign in. only issue is code doesn't work. why does ordering a burger require so much security?
★★★★ Covbadman 79 4/2/2026 v5.34.42
Mmmmmmmmmm burgers app now not working infinite loading screen
★★★★ Thats Me 4/1/2026
doesn't work
★★★★ Daniel Hadden 4/1/2026 v5.34.40
Doesn't offer delivery on orders anymore, only options for dining in. The app is disappointing and kind of useless to me in it's current state.
★★★★ Sergio Daniel Martins 3/31/2026 v5.34.40
does not work with my phone s24u, just get stuck on company emblem in the beginning of the app and it stops just like this
★★★★ Craig Bailey 3/31/2026
we do not have Burger king Altrincham WA14 5LJ
★★★★ Tiffany Williams 3/31/2026
Worst food place I've ever been to. You mess up orders all the time. Can't get anything right and you're all incompetent.
★★★★ Evie 3/28/2026 v5.34.40
I HATE IT
★★★★ Mark 3/25/2026 v5.34.40
Just installed and tried using it, doesn't even know where it's own stores are, currently trying to order at motorway services, and it's only listing stores 10+ miles away. HGV Truck driver here in the UK. OK, so just been into the services the app doesn't work for these stores.... not much point to the app then, McDonald's app does btw.
★★★★ Jamie B 3/22/2026 v5.34.40
I walk away from burger king pretty often because the app never loads for me to be able to use my points or offers so I don't buy from there on the days it don't load.
★★★★ Hannah Cotty 3/22/2026 v5.34.40
Does not load
★★★★ david gregory 3/22/2026 v5.34.40
Had great experience with this app until recently. Now app doesn't open, crashes on opening page, and when signing in via website, all accrued points have been lost.
★★★★ Adam Greenwood 3/21/2026 v5.34.40
never loads. hasn't worked in months now
★★★★ Ian India 3/21/2026 v5.34.40
The deals are just rubbish, they won't even include a coffee with the meal. Anyway my disappointment with the app and the tiny burgers in the deals are just too much. I'm deleting the app and will buy my burgers from the independents. Better burgers, better taste, better prices.
★★★★ kaff pike 3/20/2026 v5.34.40
So slow... It doesn't even want to put anything up on the screen. Disappointed. It's supposed to be easy. Sort it out burger king.
