McDonald's tests food ordering app

McDonalds could make ordering fast food even faster with help from a new app, officials say.

Customers can download the McDonald's ordering app for an iPhone or Android device and connect it to a credit card for payment.

Directions tell customers to create their order in the app, scan a code at the ordering station and then submit the order and pay. Customers can pick up the food inside the restaurant or have it delivered to their cars.

McDonalds is trying the system out in a few markets before a possible national rollout.
