Starbucks has just updated its popular, and handy, iPhone app with three great improvements.
Here’s the complete list of changes:
Stores: Now the Store finder map opens right at your location. Use the navigation arrow to easily reposition. (We also fixed the "no stores found" issue). Thanks for your suggestions and patience. Add a Starbucks Card: We've made it easier to add a new Card to the app with some visual enhancements. eGift redemption: Get an eGift? Now you can use your mobile device to get it from your email—to your app.Designed for the iPhone/iPod touch, Starbucks can be downloaded now on the App Store for free. Version 3.0.3, which landed in April, featured a revised pay section that made it easier to manage gift cards. The major 3.0 update arrived the month before and included an iOS 7 friendly design, the ability to digitally tip a barista, a new dashboard, and other improvements.
