★★★★ 渡邉孝之 4/12/2026 v6.12.0
Process failedと出たのに、paypay側では課金された。 詐欺アプリなのではないかと思う。
★★★★ Eric B 3/26/2026 v6.11.5
maybe the most useless app ever, at least for my phone. takes minutes to connect, confusing interface, just poorly designed overall
★★★★ Trung Nguyễn 3/25/2026
app dở tệ

★★★★ Taha Toorabally 12/1/2025 v6.10.1

★★★★ Daniel van Wassem 11/26/2025 v6.10.1

歩数が同期されない。
★★★★ masamichi ishisone 11/17/2025 v6.8.2
ユーザーログインの概念が分かりづらい。優待で貰ったチケットが無くなってしまった。
★★★★ Jason Harris 10/31/2025
zero isn't an option. garbage build, obvious web view, highly exploitable. also, no I am not going to allow Coke to track my location for a free drink every month.
★★★★ Masahiro Hayashi 10/15/2025
自販機でドリンクを購入しようとしてアプリを立ち上げたらレビューしろとかのポップアップが出てきて邪魔だった。ちゃんと考えた方がよいと思う。
★★★★ S O 9/27/2025 v6.8.2
自販機に繋がりにくすぎて、使うたびにかなりもたつくのでストレスが溜まって結局suicaでいいやってなります。 繋がってないのに繋がったとか嘘つかれて延々と待たされたり、酷い時には決済だけされて商品が出てこないなど(一応返金はされるようですが)、キャッシュレスとはいえスマートとは程遠すぎるアプリです。よくこれでリリースできましたね…。QAしてるんでしょうか…。
★★★★ mhrabby hridoy 8/21/2025 v6.8.2
it's not to good
★★★★ Dean S 6/24/2025 v6.7.2
terrible user interface for English speakers. Connection never works properly.
★★★★ D Drive 4/12/2025 v6.6.0
This app keeps crashing when trying to connect it to vending machines. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't work for a month... I have tried in different prefectures even and still it does not connect. The problem is not the vending machine as I couldn't use it at work, one month later I was able to and then after one month, I wasn't able to use it anymore, again. I'm using a Pixel 8.
★★★★ Sayuri 3/15/2025
99%は反応しないレベル。スマホ上でコークオンアイコン探す時間も反応しないのに起動させて通信トライする時間も毎回ムダ。使い勝手が悪いなら改善してほしい。
★★★★ naitsirhC 1/29/2025 v6.6.0
Was working fine but it won't let me change payment methods. I would get a no internet connection error despite being connected to internet. I have tried deleting cache and restarting, and it still won't let me change my payment method.
★★★★ Allan Martin Ambolario 9/18/2024 v6.3.2
Issue on COKE ON PASS Subscription. The app is great but the new Coke ON PASS subscription feels like a scam. I have been to at least 30 coke vending machines in Tokyo Dome area, Jimbocho, Itabashi and Hanzomon and none of them accepts COKE ON PASS. It has been 3 days since I have subscribed and I have not availed of anything I paid for which is very very frustrating. Coke offered this subscription which initially felt like a good deal but they are just stealing money.
★★★★ Chung 9/7/2024 v5.12.0
Connects to a machine one out of 5 times
★★★★ Alejo Valls 8/19/2024 v5.3.1
Absolutely slow and the connection is dreadful. Two times I bought drinks and failed to give me any stamps. Uninstalled and never looked back
★★★★★ Saul LF-G 2/17/2026 v6.11.0
Good service, bad "app". The purchasing and stamp collection functionality is great - there are hiccups with the connection with some machines but mostly it's great. The app however, is terrible. As with most "apps" in Japan, it is not really an app but is essentially just a shortcut to a poorly-designed website that opens in a locked browser. The layout of campaigns is completely incoherent, and most of the time if you try to go back from any campaign, it will break, you must reopen.
★★★★★ Evitya Haryanto 1/2/2026 v6.10.2
Easy to use but some things need to be fixed. Walking challenge doesn't automatically start when I go out although already linked with the health app, vending machine map isn't reflecting the actual spot sometimes & 10 points from scanning items were gone when I tried correcting my data application for the lottery program promotion (which should only cost 5 points for 1 application).
★★★★★ ストゥーCreaTorr 9/17/2025 v6.8.2
Happy to have an app that rewards you for achieving walking goals. It's very disappointing though because the app you can link it with for counting your steps is very inefficient and unreliable. It's always a couple of thousand steps less than my smartwatch app. I wish it would be possible to link it with much better step counter apps.
★★★★★ Will Cooper 8/31/2025 v6.8.2
The bottle cap code scan feature never works. You have to manually input each letter or number one at a time. Not really worth doing fifteen times for a free drink.
