## Review summary

Users appreciate OptimoRoute Driver for its accurate timing, efficient scheduling, responsive customer support, and automation of delivery tasks. However, multiple reviews mention the app's suboptimal routing algorithms causing inefficient routes, frequent glitches including crashes and getting stuck on settings, continuous location tracking even when off duty raising privacy issues, and missing features such as route optimization buttons. These issues can lead to frustration and reliance on supplementary apps for better routing.

### Pros

- Accurate routing and timing leading to efficient deliveries
- Excellent and responsive customer service
- Speeds up the delivery process by automating address entry and tracking
- Improves business operations by enabling efficient scheduling and communication with customers
- User-friendly app that is generally easy to use despite some quirks

### Cons

- Routing algorithm often produces inefficient routes causing backtracking and delays
- App crashes or glitches, sometimes getting stuck in settings and requiring reinstallation
- Constant location tracking even when off duty raises privacy concerns
- App repeatedly turns off 'on duty' status and doesn't save overrides, disrupting timing and routing
- Lack of features like an 'optimize route' button and an overview map of the entire route
