IHOP App Comments & Reviews

IHOP Positive Reviews

Easy App ordering Finally!We had months of trying to order with the app and always getting an error message and not able to place an online order through the app or from the website. We googled the error and found out that everybody else had trouble with online ordering when it came to checking out. Needless to say we just cook breakfast at home every time which I prefer. Today my husband said hey let’s go to IHOP, I didn’t feel like being out amongst others still during this time of Covid so I thought I’d try the app again. Looks like it’s finally been addressed and ordering this morning was a breeze!.Version: 3.33.0

Needs improvementMy husband is a developer for a national company, and for that reason I’ve become more familiar with how apps SHOULD work. This app needs improvement and it seems rather obvious someone wanted it released before it was ready, before it had been properly tested, and before all necessary information was included. My personal ‘gripe’ is that I have an iPhone X and the final order check out screen has the exit box at the far top left corner, above where it ought be, so it’s impossible to use. In order to re-enter the app, I have to hard close it and reopen it to reset the screen. This should not be necessary, as it seems to indicate the developer unnecessarily messed with the size coding for the iPhone X template provided by Apple. In this day and age, where everyone is used to apps working nearly flawlessly, I give IHOP props for finally entering the tech world, but thumbs down for execution. Someone doesn’t quite know what they’re doing here, and is not taking notes from other higher functioning apps. Get a new developer or kick this one in the pants and tell them to get it right. If a novice can see the issues here... I worry that someone more seasoned has missed these things and still chose to roll it out..Version: 2.0.2

Location change needs adjustmentThe app has come a long way the past few years and I like the addition of the pancake rewards and how it feels similar to a crypto app. It’s a few years ahead of other companies now and definitely moving in the right direction. One hangup I have though is we have 3 IHOP locations around us and I change the one I order at depending on whatever else I have to get/do at the time. Right now the app asks you which IHOP location you want to order from, then when you start your order, shows you previous orders you can reorder. The only problem is, unless you force it to change the pickup location back, it will order from the same location as that previous order. Either ask if we want to reorder a previous order first, or don’t overwrite the location selection from the previous menu. It forced me to chose between losing an hour driving to another location for a hour old food or wasting $45 and leave it there..Version: 4.7.0

Good App, Could be great with some improvementsI really like the idea of being able to place my pickup order through the app. When we call our order in, they can never hear us well on the phone and our order ALWAYS ends up being wrong when we arrive. With the app at least it’s put in plain writing with less room for error if they read and follow it correctly. My major issue with the app is that you can’t relay special requests to the restaurant like you could in person or even over the phone. For example, I always request shelled eggs, scrambled lightly. There is nowhere in the app to specify this request. A comment or special request section might be helpful to accomplish this. The other issue that I have is that our local IHOP’s have specials that we can get if we order in person or via phone. The app doesn’t reflect that pricing, you have to pay the full price. If we are ordering menu items with no special requests, it is otherwise a really convenient app to have!.Version: 2.16.0

App works after all, service is weird.The app works fine. However, this is across the app and website, if you place an order there is no way to view it. It will look like you have not placed it, it won’t appear in transaction history, and will not show you the coins earned from the purchase until you pick up your order. That is very bad, you already took my money there should be zero need to withhold the information until I receive the food, especially when we double check to ensure everything we ordered is included as restaurants often forget something. Every other restaurant lets you see the order you just placed, some even show you the status of your order or check you into a pickup parking spot. Unexpected from a chain as large as IHOP..Version: 4.7.0

IncompleteI loaded and used this app for the 1st time yesterday. Placing the order was easy peasy. I think what’s missing is an option in settings to view your current and past orders. Upon placing the order, I received a text for the timing of my arrival and curbside delivery. The link took me to the details of my order within the app. I waited for more than 20 minutes past the ready time indicated and had to call the store to let them know I had been waiting at which point the server came right. What might be a better option is changing that text to letting the store know the customer has arrived. However trying to find that message again searching through the app was unsuccessful. Not a bad app at all. Just needs some enhancements..Version: 4.25.0

No Grits on the menuThe only issue I have is that they have grits but not on the app menu so I have to call the location and ask to add grits to my order the store manager said that I need to complain so here’s my complaint. Not all management will accommodate unless specified also there isn’t a note box so send notes of that kind of communication either. However despite my complaint Raytown IHOP on 350Hwy is the best they are patient with customers and the food is always hot and delicious keep up the amazing work and thanks for all you do in during this crazy Pandemic it’s greatly appreciated!!.Version: 3.13.0

Needs workI’m an app tested I see other write they know testers and I did a 3rd grade level tests and founds bugs that would never come out an an initial release. Tested App and Mobile site in Safari iOS Some pancakes don’t let you add or double their own toppings so you can add it, ??? Kind of big deal when pancakes is the only section I tested. When checking out makes it seem as paying now is an option, it asks you but it’s telling you. Has a a fun button that does nothing. Doesn’t change the screen or tell you anything but from what I found the Pay Now button is there for decoration with no action tied to it, it already checked the fields have value or not if you don’t push it. You add payment info (4 fields) and just use the check out at the bottom and that works. But what happened the 3 times I hit the Pay Now button above that did nothing (didn’t charge my bank 3 times right?!!?) Nope it didn’t do squat. Why did I hit it 3 times first I though thumb was dry then I saw the second didn’t do anything wasn’t my thumb, 3rd well I had to 😐 for fun. Hopefully the store throws in the extra blueberry that couldn’t be ordered after all that free testing. Overseas developers you’re welcome..Version: 2.6.2

Almost thereA lot of things are great with this app, but two things would really make it better. 1) Some options aren’t available as selections for specific meals (e.g. sometimes seasonal pancakes don’t show up as pancake options with an omelet), and a few extra customization options would be nice (e.g. well done bacon) 2) Enhanced, modern payment options should be implemented. When adding payment information, the card number and expiration date fields don’t identify themselves as payment fields, so it doesn’t trigger the OS to suggest autocompletion of saved payment information. Also, Apple Pay, Google Pay, etc. should be auto-includes for all apps accepting payments at this point..Version: 3.10.0

App OK but needs customizations/notesApp is quick, not very buggy, intuitive, and pretty comprehensive. However, there is no place to indicate an allergy or request minor modifications that are available in restaurants. For example, a scramble or soft scramble instead of an omelette (same ingredients) or to request condiments (example, you’re staying in a hotel and don’t have any ketchup). There should be at least an order notes section so people can make minor, no-cost impact requests. It’s a waste of time for busy restaurants and customers to have to call and possibly miss the window of opportunity..Version: 4.9.0

Ihope IHOP reads thisThe app was super responsive, very easy to navigate. It even accepted the coupon I used for my very first order, I added my payment information and it took it without hiccup’s. I’m so used to apps not working I am immune to the long wait time, calling into the business and having to place my order when human error is just as bad, over all i love IHOP, they put a lot of effort into the meals, the look of the business it doesn’t surprise me they got the app looking amazing and easy to use. Thank you to you all, for all your hard work!.Version: 3.23.0

Pan coins and rewards disappearedI opened the app and like every time I do this simple act I am immediately force to update the app. After the update is completed I come back to the app to find that all of my Pan coins and rewards has been taken from my wallet. My transaction history disappeared as well and show a message that says “The data couldn’t be read because it isn’t in the correct format” I have no clue what that mean nor how to put it in the correct format. All I know is I have recently spent a lot of money with IHOP using this app for the benefit of pan coins and rewards. Is there anyway this could be corrected and compensated?.Version: 4.24.0

Easier checking out as A Guest- Go figure…I’ve been trying to order breakfast through DoorDash and order was cancelled without explanation other than try a different location? I remembered about the ihop app but I didn’t remember my password so tried to reset it but didn’t receive a password reset in my email? This is the 2nd time in 2022 that checking out as a guest was a huge time saver, the only downside is double the cost…I’ll still rate 5 stars on checking out as a guest….Version: 3.34.1

Good but needs improvementI like that I can order online and it gives you all of the ordering options that the wait staff has so you can customize your food to your liking just like in the restaurant. However, you have to use the search option far more than I would like to find you food. The biggest gripe I have is with delivery, it searches your address which I can understand many delivery option apps do this but there is no space to put your apartment number not even a section for special instructions which is where I put the apartment number in other apps..Version: 3.2.0

Easy Peezy ordering!I Love how the app is organized for placing a online order!! Not to throw shady BUT I am.. last time I was at the ihop in Pooler Ga, I did not like the service. Our food was wildly bad except the pancakes. AND WE LOOVE our pancakes from ihop and who could mess up a pankcake? I mean it’s ihop for crying out loud, you just can’t. Period. So this app makes it SO easy for us to make that order of pancakes and dip so we don’t have to deal w/ the extra stuff. LOVE YOUR PANCAKES IHOP and I still have Ihope in your customer service as well:’-) have a wonderful 2019 happy day, god bless.Version: 2.6.0

Stores should be preparedThe app itself works fine for me, but I find it odd that you can’t add a tip in the check out section. Most food apps give you that option. My biggest complaint about this app has more to do with the restaurant itself. If you’re going to allow mobile orders then be prepared for them. I have ordered through this app about five times and not once has my food been ready to go at the time the app promises. I am usually in the restaurant 10 minutes waiting for my order it be bagged and brought to me. This morning they had no plastic utensils other than a spoon. Have you ever tried to spread butter on a pancake and eat it with a spoon?.Version: 2.2.0

Payment and Ordering Big HeadacheAlthough this app has evolved over the years, there are still issues. Using the previous/recent orders only allows you to reorder using the same address. You can’t change it without starting over. Also when it comes to payment, it won’t let you place the order because the option to use a credit/debit card isn’t available. Now I’m forced to use door dash directly to order for delivery. I do have to the ease of ordering and make changes to the items is nice. The app would be great if they fix those issues..Version: 4.26.3

Needs improvementThe app is good ordering platform to have especially during the pandemic. However it lacks certain things that would allow it to cater to consumers needs in a more effective manner. Certain items allow for customization because there are so many particular options but some things lack this option and you cannot write a note if you want any sort of specialization on the particular item. For example an individual can ask for extra crispy bacon or an extra egg while dining in but they cannot do that on the app because there is no option to specialize..Version: 3.2.0

Needs improvementThe IHOP app is a good basic food ordering app but does have a few places where it could be improved. One place is to add in customization options other than the built in options. You could incorporate a note field where you could write in any type of customization, for example if you want real eggs as opposed to powdered eggs you normally have to ask them at IHOP to make that change but there’s no place to do that in the app. So no customization of any options that you would normally be able to make it a store can be done..Version: 3.34.1

Not bad for first time.Worked pretty well first time out. Would be better if used Apple Pay or Wallet for credit card instead of inputting Card info, I prefer Apple’s security to any other company. Was able to easily add and edit orders to each person’s requirements. Would be nice to have an overall comment area for any special instructions though. Wasn’t able to add a tip to the total, need to have that option unless I missed it..Version: 3.25.0

Not what I was expectingI’ve never ordered of this app and today was the day I decided to download and order. I was planning on getting the spinach and mushroom omelette, my wife wanted onion rings as a side for her sandwich. Neither one of the these items displayed. We have ordered this food multiple time at the restaurant without issue. After getting frustrated, I tried calling the restaurant to place my order, but due to the virus, they are only taking online orders. I was able to get an order placed, but I’m not happy with it. They need to update this app with a complete menu listing. It seems things are missing..Version: 2.21.0

Needs A Little ExtraThe app functions well, it’s responsive and never crashed on me. The issue is the lack of ability to customize. For instance I wanted the strawberries on my pancakes but not bananas. The only customization was to add them both. The issue of not being able to pay by card is the worst problem for me personally. You can do gift card but not bank. I don’t like that for curbside pickup because then my card is in the hands of a stranger while being out of my sight.. for that reason I scraped my order and wrote this review..Version: 3.31.0

Limited customization of Omelette sidesApp Functionality is good but in terms of options for the omelettes which I only order every day, there is no option for me to upgrade to a Belgian waffles or French toast for the omelette. Sometimes I would like to upgrade to those and the only options I can choose from are a limited selection of pancakes. This really needs to be fixed. I’m deducting two stars for my review due to the limited availability of upgradeable sides for the Omelettes. When the functionality is added I will amend my review to 5 stars..Version: 3.34.1

Decent App. Needs upgradeThis is a nice app but a few things that need to improve: -Reorders don’t change locations based on your preference changes. It’ll let you change it but still reorders from the same location you last ordered. - It doesn’t let you see your current order in the app. It confirms the order was placed but that’s it. You can’t see it again in case you need the confirmation at pickup. -When I’m playing music on my phone and open the app, it stops the music player *shrugs*.Version: 4.19.0
