## Review summary

The Giant Food SCAN IT! Mobile app is intended to provide a convenient self-checkout experience by scanning items as customers shop, reducing checkout time and physical contact. Users appreciate these benefits when the app works. However, the app commonly fails due to its dependence on specific store Wi-Fi networks, glitches in scanning, login issues, and lack of cashier staff training on app audits. These persistent problems frustrate users, sometimes forcing them to abandon the app or shop elsewhere. Users desire improvements in app reliability, store Wi-Fi upgrades, and better customer support.

### Pros

- Offers convenience and time-saving by allowing customers to scan and bag items as they shop.
- Helps reduce person-to-person contact, especially useful during pandemic situations.
- Interface has potential; users appreciate features like scanning items and paying via phone at checkout.
- App, when working, can be better than handheld store scanners according to some users.
- Some users like the idea of the app and have constructive suggestions for improvements like grocery lists and item location features.

### Cons

- App often requires connection to store-specific Wi-Fi which is unreliable, unavailable, or inconsistent across stores.
- Frequent app glitches including slow performance, scanning failures, repeated rescanning, and failure to connect to servers.
- Store staff are often untrained on app-specific audit processes, causing inconvenience.
- Requires constant re-registration or login while inside the store; inability to prepare or load coupons outside store premises.
- Discontinued or limited support by Giant leading to app not working in some regions, with poor customer service responses.
