"Domino's Pizza" flashes in speech-to-text SMS/RCS compose/chats

[esteban034]

The Domino's online experience PHONE APP has been removed from my phone months ago. ---

My phone's TEXTING/SMS app has been HACKED by DOMINO'S and continues to flash-display the text "Domino's Pizza" whenever I use speech-to-text services in the app and use words like "please" or "thank you" - there are about 8-12 words that trigger this INVASIVE action. This infiltration by Domino's leaves me with NO DESIRE to interact or order from Domino's ever again.

My next move is to contact Verizon Wireless, the FTC and the FCC and lodge a complaint accusing Domino's for invasion of privacy - and taking deliberate actions designed to disrupt personal life with this marketing technique.

Domino's has NOT responded to my support requests.
Any advice out there? Anyone else experiencing this?

I'm having the same problem! people thought I was joking until I showed them the screen that when I use voice to text and say please or thank you it automatically adds that... it did it just now and then removed it when I started saying more words after. thank you

You might have to pay for an antivirus app (don't use a free service) to remove malware on your phone.  Check your apps to make sure there isn't some other app showing you the ads.  If you don't recognize an app, a search engine should be able to tell you what it is.

It's not a virus or your phone being hacked. It's an issue with the Gboard keyboard.  See this Reddit post for more details:
