My local Petsmart is aggressively having their employees push their app. I finally had enough and asked the employee if they have been instructed to push the app, and they said it is a deliberate directive "because they were late in the app 'game'". With this "late to the game" mentality, I can only imagine they are using all of the tracking software to maximize any earnings they can. That's just my suspicion, to confirm one way or the other is outside my wheel house

- dylan604 1y agoAt this point in time, I do not feel like anyone is making an app just to make it convenient for users. There is the whole gamefication and trying to increase dwell time while including as many trackers as possible to collect user data. Otherwise, they'd just have their website with the same functionality. Also, if it were just a user factor, they wouldn't be pushing as aggressively either. At this point, they feel like they are losing money and that can only mean tracking users.
