EasyRoutes Product Updates - June and July 2023 πŸ“¦

We're thrilled to announce that EasyRoutes is now officially πŸ’Ž Built for Shopify, joining a select group of apps that meet Shopify's highest standards for speed, ease of use, and merchant value. Thanks for your support along the way! We're excited to continue making EasyRoutes the best way to streamline your local delivery operation on Shopify. Here's some recent updates we've made to help streamline your deliveries on Shopify.

Your all-in-one local delivery app for Shopify

What's new?

πŸ› οΈ New Route Options Page

We've moved our route options to a new, more configurable Route Options page. To change your options from the Orders page, click on the "Add/Edit Options" button under the map.

To change your route options when viewing a route, click on the Action menu under the map and select "Edit route options" at the top of the list.

Set different start and end points, maximum items, weights and more to tailor your routes according to your specific needs and preferences.

πŸ’‘ Pro-tip: Click the star in the upper right hand corner of any option's panel to bookmark your favourite options and pin them to your order and route pages for quicker access!

‍

πŸ“ Delivery Location Tracking

Delivery location tracking is now available on Premium plans! You can view the GPS location of deliveries made by your drivers to confirm delivery accuracy. Tracked locations are available for review alongside any Photo Proof of Delivery & eSignature images from each stop's "Proof" panel when viewing your routes. Β Drivers must be using the latest version of EasyRoutes Delivery Driver to access this feature.

‍

πŸ“± EasyRoutes Delivery Driver 1.0.26

EasyRoutes Delivery Driver has been updated to 1.0.26 with various improvements and bug fixes. Dispatch messages are now delivered via push notifications when sharing a route for a better and more reliable experience, and URLs shared in notes can be opened as links in the browser for sharing information with your drivers.

‍

✍️ Instant Edit Mode on Routes

We've removed the Edit button when viewing a route. You can still edit your routes the same way you used to, but you don't have to click a button to enter edit mode first now!
