TBH I dont use an app for anything that can be done in the browser, especially when mobile websites ask me tl get their app.

Doesn’t really sound like a company that I would want to do any business with then.

I wish for a browser addon to just block those app download requests when it smells them. The answer’s only gonna be no for all that, dawg.~
I only have the Starbucks app so my fancy Sunday coffee is done right and they don’t call me Corey Sangeetha or Coarse Kangaroo.
