McD app is the absolute worst.

1) rooted or bootloader-unlocked Android devices are not allowed (granted it's easy enough to get past it for now but the checks are still there). 2) 2FA requirements as if anyone would bother to steal coupons from others

It appears that they want ordering burgers to have the same level of enhanced security as banking apps. Not even crypto or trading apps bother to block unlocked devices in such a way. Blocking rooted devices doesn't even make banking apps more secure but for them I can at least understand the reasoning.
