"Like many New Yorkers, I couldn't resist the notion of an app that promises push-button pizza. That's the idea behind Push for Pizza, created by five Brooklyn teenagers and unveiled Tuesday.\nTurns out Push For Pizza is about as simple as advertised. You press the pizza-shaped button, select a local pizza place and type of pizza \u2014 right now, unfortunately, only regular cheese pizza is available, but others should be coming soon. \nYou then enter credit card information and the delivery address. Tip is already included. The app saves the address and credit card information, making the process quicker next time.\nSee also: Snuggle up in this delicious pepperoni pizza\nI ordered a pie from Bravo Pizza, and it arrived at Mashable HQ in less than 20 minutes. It seems I was ahead of the game: the average wait time is 30 to 45 minutes, Max Hellerstein, one of the app's creators, told Mashable. \nThe tip was already included in the amount I paid using my credit card on the app, and the whole price came out to around $20 for a large pizza.\nHellerstein, 19, and four of his friends came up with the concept for a pizza app while hanging out one night. Working with Ordr.in API, the teens have already partnered with 1,200 pizza shops across the U.S.\n\"We were lucky,\" Hellerstein said. \"We came out of the gate with a national network.\"\nWhen the app officially launched Tuesday, it garnered 7,000 orders by midnight. Hellerstein promises pepperoni and other diverse toppings \u2014 including styles of pizza unique to each restaurant \u2014 will be available soon. \n\"Right now it's simple, but not simple enough in our eyes,\" Hellerstein said. \"Pizza's the beginning, but we want to branch out to different foods.\" Push For Pizza expects to add between 600 and 2,000 more pizza restaurants to its network when the app is updated, supposedly in the next one to two months.\nAs for the cheese pizza I ordered, it was gone in one to two minutes. \nFor the story behind the app, check out the promotional video below:\n\nHave something to add to this story?
