Starbucks Mobile Ordering Is Finally Nationwide!

Are you ready for the most important news you'll hear all day? You might want to sit down for this: Starbucks mobile ordering is available nationwide today. Can I get a praise hands emoji? A celebratory rainbow face Snapchat (RIP)? Perhaps a commemorative Pumpkin Spice Latte, long may it reign?

Ahem. Now that I've gotten my incredibly Millennial impulses out, let's get to the good stuff. If you're a resident of the Pacific Northwest, chances are you're already intimately familiar with Starbucks Mobile Ordering, which allows you to pre-order sweet, sweet caffeine for pickup from Starbucks' app before you even roll your half-asleep self out of bed. Better yet, you get to skip the lines and the register, picking up your drink before work without having a single barista misspell your name.

The pre-ordering option expanded to locations in the Southern and Central United States earlier this summer. Not to brag, but I've been enjoying this glorious perk since June (neener neener) — and trust me, it is truly an amazing innovation. On Tuesday, however, the company announced that mobile ordering is finally available at more than 7,400 stores nationwide — that is, pretty much all of them, according to Statista — and it's officially available for both iPhone and Android users. The future is now, people, and it is extremely caffeinated.

If mobile ordering is new to your area, it's a simple concept. Users order and pay for their drinks (or food, because who doesn't love those breakfast sandwiches?) through the Starbucks mobile app, and they receive an estimated pick-up time. After that, it's a matter of showing up to the store and picking up your order. Easy-peasy.

Rejoice, my fellow smartphone-using caffeine addicts, for equality has been achieved!
