DoorDash has announced a series of major updates to its services, ranging from pilot drone deliveries to a new feature that lets customers order food via text message.
Users in Northern California will be the first to receive drone deliveries under the company’s new service, DoorDash Air, through pilot programs launched with local businesses and national chains such as Chipotle Mexican Grill and Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen. The rollout follows commercial drone delivery certification granted to DoorDash by the Federal Aviation Administration in June.
