McDonald’s launches an Alexa skill available in the UK that answers store opening hours, what menu is live and when breakfast finishes, and previews the weekly McDonald’s Monday offer; it links users to the MyMcDonald’s app for full ordering and uses integrated delivery via Uber Eats and a new click-and-serve collection flow. Team frames voice today as an engagement and handoff layer, not full ordering yet, and aims for future conversational ordering once payments, favorites and address integrations are solved.
