The Walgreens mobile application allows users to shop, refill their prescriptions, get pill reminders, consult a doctor or pharmacist via a live chat feature, print photos in stores, obtain rewards, and store coupons. The app is used by tens of millions of individuals — the Android application has over 10 million installs and the iOS app has over 50 million.
A notification letter sent out by Walgreens to impacted customers informs them that one or more of their messages within the Walgreens mobile application may have been viewed by other users of the app due to an “error.” The letter was published on February 28 on the website of the California Attorney General.
