doesnt open. says something went wrong.
★★★★ Jordan C 4/25/2026 v2601.0.3
there is never any offers or deals in the offers section. "That's all for now. check back again soon for new offers". but there never is any.
★★★★ Ty Sawyer 4/25/2026 v24.13.0
wont let me look at anything because it wont let me change my pickup settings from a year ago, including the pickup time... a year ago. anytime I try to change it the app crashes or it just doesn't change. can't even look at the menu
★★★★ Al Shariff 4/18/2026 v2601.0.3
App simply does not work. Try to open it and you get a message "Something went wrong". Honestly, what is the value of having an app that never works. KFC wants to be successful, but they run their business like a third world country. Hey KFC, try to learn from McDonald's on how to deploy a working app as well as to run a customer centric business.
★★★★ xcrGaming 4/18/2026 v2601.0.3
trying to up sell way too much
★★★★ Edmond Jr Castillo 4/17/2026 v2601.0.3

★★★★ Maureen T 4/11/2026
app does not work. it keeps saying expired n to login as guest. Android phone. can't use the deals as the cashier require to order with app
★★★★ Laflave 4/11/2026 v2601.0.3
awful app doesn't work with Google Play or credit card
★★★★ Lis Kean 4/9/2026 v2601.0.3
Our order was ignored for hours and there was no way to cancel it without speaking to the designated location- which would not pick up no matter how many times we called. there is no way to connect with customer service. never using again.
★★★★ Jacob Bosch 4/9/2026
genuinely the worst app I have ever used. It's so bad it feels like it was designed to be bad, you would get better luck ordering fron them if you sent them letter instead, or hand delivered your order on a piece of paper, walked back to your home, and waited for your order to arrive. or made it yourself in their kitchen.
★★★★ H Vezina 4/8/2026
doesn't let you order without logging in, but when you try to log in it says there's no account with that information and to make an account. then, when you go to make an account, it says an account already exists with that information.
★★★★ Michael Sum 4/8/2026 v2601.0.3
1st time trying. Charged me twice for one order. Called restaurant right away for a refund on second order. Granted. Bank bills me anyway. 2nd time trying. This time restaurant didn't recieve my order. Still got charged. KFC Customer Support couldn't be bothered to help me. Bank denied chargeback. Now I'm $20 short. There will be no 3rd time. Deleting app.
★★★★ Brad Baumann 4/8/2026 v2601.0.3
You can't purchase anything because it still doesn't recognize my postal code.
★★★★ Erick Lipe 4/6/2026 v2601.0.3
This app ticks me off. I kept trying to put in an address and nothing would happen it kept asking for my location. Why can't I put in my own location? dumb design. uninstalled and won't be going to KFC.
★★★★ Roxora Xenoa 4/6/2026 v2601.0.3
Payment literally fails across many methods
★★★★ Greg Duffey 4/3/2026 v2601.0.3
payment gives issues everytime,worst fast food app I use. should be a pay at restaurant option since order doesn't start until I get here anyways
★★★★ KALISWARAN NACHIMUTHU 4/3/2026 v2502.0.1
does not work at all. always says payment cannot be processed. really bad app
★★★★ Lynne McLeod 4/2/2026 v2601.0.3
App is glitchy as heck, so annoying!! so slow to get my order, ridiculous!
★★★★ Keisha Sylvester 4/2/2026 v2601.0.2
waited very long to get my order
★★★★ Moe 4/2/2026 v2601.0.3
terrible app
★★★★ Soren Rubbelke 3/31/2026 v2601.0.3
Whoever made this app should off themself
★★★★ Lisa KK 3/30/2026 v2601.0.3
you can never register a login account by entering correct phone number. could you please debug?
★★★★ Jonathon Lee 3/28/2026 v2601.0.3
I DON'T LIKE THE FACT THAT YOU ARE ONLY ALLOWED TO PAY ONLINE WITH A CREDIT CARD. A MAJORITY OF FAST FOOD APPS ALLOW YOU TO PAY AT THE RESTAURANT. PLEASE FIX THIS!!!
★★★★ Natalie Zapata 3/27/2026 v2601.0.3
Sadly, my last experience with the app was very bad. I had to pay extra money thanks to it. It kicked me out twice and never told me my order was processed, and the third told me my order was accepted. When I arrived to pick up my order, I had three orders almost ready to pick up. I had to pay for the orders. So unexpected and out of budget expense and a lot of chicken to throw away. The app is not going to refund me.
★★★★ Sean Rivera 3/24/2026 v2601.0.2
This used to be a great app but last year, an update removed all the payment options. I used to be able to choose to pay at the restaurant after making an order but now I'm required to pay immediately and it doesn't work. Can't use the app to place an order so I can't use any of the deals in the app. I'll have to stick with the paper coupons...
★★★★ Nicholas Boudreau 3/23/2026 v2601.0.2
app doesn't accept any of my cards, and offers no "pay in store option" so it's kinda turned me off of KFC when something is 10 dollars when ordered through the app but 17 dollars in store.
★★★★ Av Rb 3/21/2026 v2601.0.2
too many bugs
★★★★ Charles Wang 3/20/2026 v2506.0.0
online payment is terrible especially card storage
★★★★ Sean 3/19/2026
tried to order food off the app. the app wouldn't let me pay via my credit card. After trying to get it to work for half an hour, I got tired and just deleted the app.
★★★★ Diane Deforest 3/18/2026
Won't accept my phone number. Your setup for offers needs to be revised and or updated
★★★★ Sal H 3/18/2026 v2509.1.1
The app wouldn't load the menu, I uninstalled and reinstalled the app, and got an error message every time I attempted to login, after inputting the 4-number code texted to me. The error message falsely claims that the session had expired. Apparently the session expires instantly after inputting the code 10 seconds after the text is received by me. A billion-dollar company with an app that's totally broken 🤡
★★★★ B 3/18/2026 v2601.0.2
can't find any locations
★★★★ Mathew Ashworth 3/18/2026 v2601.0.2
doesn't work
★★★★ Justin Payette 3/18/2026 v2601.0.2
I can never sign in and look for app offers. I used to use this app all the time. frustrating
★★★★ Darin H 3/17/2026 v2601.0.2
Between this app, the desktop website, and the mobile website, this has been the worst experience trying to place a simple "convenient" order
★★★★ Ray C 3/17/2026
beware of this app. you will place a order and then get a error message something went wrong. then after a few hours your order gets processed with your credit card without you knowing. a few days later you notice a payment on youe bank app. happen to me 3 times. no customer service other than calling the store.
★★★★ David Janzen 3/16/2026 v2601.0.2
Absolutely failure, will not allow Amex credit card payment. Waste of time.
★★★★ Benjamin Smith 3/15/2026 v2601.0.2
doesn't work anymore. just says "Something is wrong"
★★★★ Zoltan Kriston 3/15/2026 v2601.0.2
it is way too complicated favorite orders? you cannot reorder if you want to reorder your order. last time many time it says something went wrong Way too many options when you placing an order. I just want to get in place an order quickly and be on my happy way. impossible to do it with this app
★★★★ Brett Lake 3/14/2026 v2601.0.2
Simply non functional 90% of the time and they removed the google pay options which was their only semi functional payment option everything else never works.
★★★★ Allie (Aouzy) 3/14/2026 v2601.0.2
incredibly slow and unresponsive. takes the money from your bank but doesn't send your order to the restaurant
★★★★ Darryl LaBonte 3/13/2026 v2509.1.0
worst app ever
★★★★ Atilla 3/11/2026 v2509.1.1
app slow glitchy bad interface, to many loading transitions, I almost gave up on placing my order for how many times it was dropping my cart randomly and making me re start
★★★★ Sunil Godson 3/11/2026
app is the worst app. your losing customer bcz of the unresponsive app.
★★★★ Bernadette Strong 3/9/2026
ever time I try to use the app it tells me something went wrong. I'm not happy with it at all
★★★★ Spencer 3/7/2026 v2601.0.2
app is now dysfunction because you cannot pay. I have a new Google pixel 10 on 5G connection and first tried paying with Google pay. payment was refunded to my account because it didn't go through on the app. The second time i tried confirming my payment in my credit card app and it didn't work either. transaction just sits there loading in the KFC app and never processes
★★★★ xxltredxx 3/7/2026 v2601.0.2
