Is EasyRoutes good for same-day delivery?

Yes. Create routes in minutes, add last‑minute stops, and re‑optimize during the day. Dispatch instantly to drivers with live tracking and customer notifications.

See: Re‑optimize · Dispatch

Can I get started with EasyRoutes quickly?

See: Getting Started

How do I manage my active drivers?

You can add, remove, and switch drivers in a way that is flexible with your business at anytime from within EasyRoutes. If you need more active drivers, then you'll need to add more drivers on your plan.

See: Add a driver · Activate/deactivate drivers

Can the app work offline?

Yes. If a route is opened while the device is online, the app caches details so drivers can continue working with limited or no connectivity; updates to the route and individual stops will sync back to EasyRoutes when the device is back online.

See: Offline Use

How often is analytics data updated?

Analytics updates as delivery events are recorded. Refresh the Analytics page to see the latest numbers; event details also appear in each route’s Activity Feed.

See: Delivery Analytics · Activity Feed

Can I import orders into EasyRoutes from spreadsheets?

Yes. Import orders by CSV in Shopify or Web, including item‑level quantities and weights for capacity planning.

Can I export packing slip data instead of printing?

Yes. Use the same Print flow and choose your OS/browser’s Save as PDF, or generate a route PDF for digital sharing.

Can I auto‑dispatch routes?

Yes. If a scheduled start time is set, routes can be auto‑assigned and dispatched to the selected driver when created.

Can I show my driver’s real-time location to customers?

Yes. On Premium/Enterprise plans you can display a live driver pin on tracking pages when the driver is 1–10 stops away.

Can I factor driver breaks into my optimized routes?

Yes. Add scheduled driver breaks to new or existing route, and EasyRoutes will insert a break stop while updating downstream ETAs and total route time.

See: Printing packing labels

Can the API update route status?

Yes. The API can update stops and routes (e.g., mark delivered/attempted, assign/dispatch, or edit route details), which can trigger notifications if enabled.

See: API Getting Started · Routes API

Can I view analytics for a specific date range?

Yes. Use the date picker to select common presets (7/30 days) or a custom start and end date; Analytics refreshes to that range.

Yes. Enable templates for Imported/Manual stops in EasyRoutes Customer Notifications settings, and include an email and or phone number on the stop.

How does EasyRoutes pricing work?

Pricing is based on plan tier plus the number of active driver seats; optional SMS is usage‑based. Scale seats up/down anytime.

Does EasyRoutes require internet to run routes?

Planning and dispatching routes requires internet. Drivers can continue deliveries offline if their route was opened while connected, and updates to the route will sync when a connection is restored.

See: Offline Use

Can I build multi-step Workflows with conditional logic?

Yes. Workflows can include multiple steps and conditions, such as only dispatching routes to certain drivers if the route exceeds a number of stops, or only adding particular stops if the corresponding order includes certain tags. There are no limits to how many Workflows route planners can create, offering maximum flexibility for businesses with varying delivery schedules.

See: Conditional Workflows

Can I re-optimize a route after it’s created?

Yes. Re‑optimize at any time — after adding or removing stops, changing stop priorities, editing route options, or balancing loads. Drivers can also re-optimize routes delivered out of order, or re‑order stops if enabled from your EasyRoutes Settings.

See: Re‑optimize a route · Re‑ordering stops

Does EasyRoutes have an API?

Yes. EasyRoutes offers a public API and webhooks for integrating with external systems or building custom automation.

See: API Getting Started · Routes API

Can Workflows trigger when new Shopify orders come in?

Yes. Workflows function on a custom scheduling basis that can be adjusted at any time. Any new Shopify orders received prior to the scheduling cut-off will be included in auto-generated routes. A common Workflow is set up to automatically generate routes with new Shopify orders matching certain filters criteria. This ensures your team can start deliveries without manual intervention.
