Yes. EasyRoutes opens your driver’s preferred navigation app for turn‑by‑turn directions. Drivers can choose Google Maps, Apple Maps, or Waze as their default navigation app from the mobile app's settings page. Drivers can also long tap and choose a different app on the fly if needed. Getting directions is available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Workflows are closely integrated with EasyRoutes’ existing notification and dispatch systems. This means you can set up a Workflow that not only creates a route but also automatically assigns it to a driver and triggers delivery notifications to customers at the right moments. For example, you could design a Workflow that dispatches a route to a driver as soon as it’s created, ensuring they receive a push notification in the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app. As soon as the driver starts their route, EasyRoutes can send customers an email or SMS letting them know their delivery is on the way. This seamless integration ensures your team doesn’t need to remember to click multiple buttons — communication and route management just happen automatically.
Workflows allow you to automate many of the repetitive tasks that take up valuable time in your day-to-day delivery management. For example, if you typically log in each morning to create routes, assign them to drivers, and send customers notifications, Workflows can be set up to handle all of that automatically based on rules you define. This saves your dispatchers hours of work each week and helps eliminate mistakes, such as forgetting to notify a customer or leaving a route unassigned.
Automation also improves reliability — your drivers and customers can count on consistent, timely updates regardless of how busy your team is. In short, Workflows help standardize your operations so they run smoothly, even when volumes are high or resources are stretched thin.
See: Workflows Guide
Yes. The EasyRoutes Routes API accepts imported stops (customer details, address, items, notes) so you can bring orders from non‑Shopify sources into EasyRoutes. After importing, you can create new routes, add the stops to existing routes, assign drivers, and dispatch. This works for both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web and complements CSV import when you need automation.
Customer tracking pages can display an anonymized, live driver pin so recipients can see the driver’s progress as delivery approaches. Enable the option in EasyRoutes Settings → Order tracking, and use delivery notifications (email/SMS) to send tracking links automatically. When live location is unavailable (e.g., permissions off), the page still shows status updates and ETAs based on route progress.
See: Real-Time Driver Location Tracking · Customizable Order Tracking Pages
Yes. One of EasyRoutes’ strengths is its ability to centralize delivery management. You can import WooCommerce orders via CSV or Zapier while also syncing Shopify, BigCommerce, or other platform orders into the same account. EasyRoutes will display all of them together so you can generate optimized routes across multiple sales channels.
See: WooCommerce Overview
Yes. If a driver is seasonal or temporarily inactive, they can be temporarily deactivated until required again. The driver’s profile, history, and assignments remain in your account, but they cannot receive routes or sign in until re‑activated. This helps control costs without losing configuration.
Manage seats from the Drivers & Vehicles tab of the EasyRoutes navigation menu. Works in EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Yes. Set a scheduled start date and time when creating or editing a route. EasyRoutes will use that schedule — plus stop time intervals and any delivery time windows — to calculate ETAs for every stop. Customers can receive their individual ETAs via branded tracking pages and optional email/SMS notifications. If plans change, simply edit the route's schedule, re‑optimize the route, and ETAs will update automatically.
Yes. EasyRoutes allows you to centralize deliveries across multiple platforms. You can import invoices from Xero alongside Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, or Squarespace orders, then optimize routes across all of them in one place. See: EasyRoutes for Xero
Yes. When you create multiple routes together, EasyRoutes groups them so you can monitor all active drivers in a single view. The Route Group page shows color‑coded pins, per‑route progress, and live stop updates. Use this view to coordinate dispatch, answer customer inquiries, and rebalance work if needed by moving stops between routes.
The majority of EasyRoutes’ core route planning and optimization features are included in both products, including our intuitive user interface, customizable route options, and visual route planning via map views.
EasyRoutes features that rely on Shopify-native functionality or APIs (such as Shopify email & SMS notifications, order tags, subscription order generation, and fulfillment workflows) are not currently available on EasyRoutes for Web. Select EasyRoutes automation tools (including import automation rules) are also currently exclusive to EasyRoutes for Shopify.

Drivers can install the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android) using the official links provided in our Help Center. The app works with both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web accounts; once added as a driver, sign in using the phone number on file and the SMS code sent to that device. After dispatch, routes appear automatically in the app and can also be opened from the push notification's shared route link.
See: Where can I download the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app?
Yes. You can translate and brand customer‑facing tracking pages and notifications so recipients see messages in their language. EasyRoutes displays order/customer fields as they are provided by your source system (e.g., Shopify), making it straightforward to serve multilingual buyers. This applies across EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web. Additionally, the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver mobile app supports automatic translations to French, Spanish, Dutch, and German on both iOS and Android devices.
See: Language options
Yes. Open any template in the Notifications editor and use Preview with Example Data to see how your message will render, including variables. You can also send a real‑world test by creating a draft order or manual stop with your own contact details, and triggering notifications on a sample route. Preview/testing tools are available for both email and SMS on Shopify and Web.
Yes. EasyRoutes is designed to unify multi-platform delivery operations. You can import Wix orders and combine them with orders from Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, or other sources. All orders appear in one dashboard, so you can generate optimized multi-stop routes across platforms. See: EasyRoutes for Wix
Yes. EasyRoutes features customizable Vehicle Profiles for different vehicle types, as well as route capacities (e.g., item or weight limits) that can be assigned to a route so our route optimizer respects those limits. Route‑level capacity controls — such as Max items per route and Max weight per route — to prevent overloading a vehicle. Pair capacity settings with other constraints (including custom start/end locations, stop time intervals, and delivery time windows) and re‑optimize to reflect changes. For commercial navigation needs, export routes to GPX and load them onto Garmin devices that support truck‑aware routing.
See: Vehicle Profiles · Max items/weight per route · Commercial vehicles & GPX Export
By default, CSV imports are static snapshots. To enable real-time updates, you can set up a Zapier workflow that pushes new or updated Wix orders into EasyRoutes automatically. Alternatively, use the API to sync live changes such as address edits or cancellations, ensuring drivers always have up-to-date information. See: Zapier Guide
Yes. Enable automatic dispatch so newly created routes with a scheduled start time are assigned and sent to the chosen driver immediately — no extra clicks. Use this for recurring daily runs or integrations that create routes programmatically. You can still edit or un-dispatch a route before start time if plans change.
You don’t need to be technical to connect Squarespace with EasyRoutes. Using Zapier, you can build “if-this-then-that” workflows to automatically send Squarespace orders to EasyRoutes for route planning. For businesses that want more advanced automation, the EasyRoutes API lets developers build custom integrations and connect with other business systems. This gives you both a no-code and pro-code path to integration. See: API Getting Started
No. Both products dispatch routes to the same EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app on iOS and Android. Drivers get identical navigation choices (Google/Apple/Waze), proof-of-delivery tools, barcode/driver tasks, and optional features like re-optimizing remaining stops or scheduled breaks — controlled by your admin settings. Any differences are admin-side only (e.g., Shopify-specific fields shown/hidden).
See: Delivery Driver app · Barcode scanning · Location tracking
Yes. If you need to drive the same set of stops in the opposite direction (e.g., afternoon run), open the route, choose the actions menu (three dots), and click Reverse route. The stop list flips order and ETAs update based on your scheduled start time and stop service times. This tool is available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web. You can still drag‑and‑drop to fine‑tune any exceptions or stops that require particular attention.
Importing WooCommerce orders is straightforward. Using a plugin like WebToffee, you can export orders from your WooCommerce dashboard in CSV format. Once exported, you simply drag and drop the CSV file into EasyRoutes. The system will map fields like customer name, address, and quantity automatically, and you can confirm or adjust mappings before creating optimized delivery routes. This makes it easy to bring WooCommerce data into your delivery workflow.
Yes. EasyRoutes supports multiple label sizes. Pick a base size and text scale in EasyRoutes Settings → Packing Slips & Labels, then confirm your printer uses the matching paper (e.g., 4×6) with an appropriate print scale.
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.
This also eliminates the need for dispatchers to constantly refresh EasyRoutes or manually select new orders. By ensuring routes are always up-to-date with the latest order data, Workflows help reduce delays, prevent missed deliveries, and keep your delivery operation moving smoothly.
Yes. From the Analytics page, pick your time period (e.g., last 7/30 days or a custom range) and optionally filter by driver. Use the Export option to download a CSV for spreadsheets or external tools, or use Print to generate a PDF summary. CSV exports preserve the filters you applied so downstream reports match what you saw in EasyRoutes.
Exports are available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web. If you need more granular, stop‑level records, combine Analytics with route exports from the Routes page.
Yes. On Premium/Enterprise plans, you can send SMS notifications for key delivery events (e.g., Ready for Delivery, Out for Delivery, Driver is X stops away, Delivered, Missed Delivery, and optionally Scheduled/Rescheduled). Messages are billed per segment based on the recipient’s country. Customize content and variables in the template editor, and preview with example data before enabling. Pair SMS with email and customer tracking links for full visibility.
