delivery app

Meal ordering platform

A delivery app is a smartphone application that lets users order food, groceries, or other goods for delivery to their location.

Services like DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Instacart connect customers with restaurants or stores, dispatching drivers to pick up and deliver orders: I'll just get dinner on a delivery app.

The term sometimes extends to apps for packages or pharmacy items.
