The Starbucks App is down for scheduled maintenance during the early morning coffee hour, and millennials are not happy about it.

Many took to Twitter to voice their frustration and crack jokes about the timing of the maintenance.

People didn’t know how to react in San Diego.

Ancient technology came in handy.

My Starbucks App is down for maintenance. This must be what addicts feel like when their dealer won’t answer the phone.
I guess I have to wait in line & pay with a credit card? Do people still do that anymore? Feels like I’m wasting so much precious time unless I mobile order.

One person even followed in the footsteps of Jesus.

My @Starbucks app isn’t working so I had to pay for my coffee with a credit card just like Jesus used to.

The maintenance even caused some embarrassment.

Hey @Starbucks your app is broken and caused me to have the most embarrassing morning where I couldn’t afford my damn breakfast because all I had was my phone because my purse was in the office. So I’ll just send you my therapy bill, cool?
