Starbucks Makes It Easier For iPhone App Users To Manage Their Gift Cards

While the official Starbucks app received a major update back in March, some caffeine addicts (myself included) were less than pleased with the revamped Pay section.
But with a recent update, that important section has been vastly improved.
In version 3.0.3, users can now remove a card by hitting Manage and then tapping the “X” in the top left hand corner. Tagging a primary card can be done by hitting Manage and then selecting Make Primary.
The reload process is now also even faster. And the nice Shake-To-Pay option now even shows the card number.
The update also solves a problem with access during limited network connectivity and an issue with user names and passwords containing spaces.
Designed for the iPhone/iPod touch, Starbucks can be downloaded on the App Store for free.
Along with an iOS 7 friendly design, version 3.0 added a number of nice new features. Users can view their entire account history and even digitally tip their barista up to two hours after a transaction.
