FAQ

Does tracking continue if the driver closes the app?

Yes. EasyRoutes continues to receive driver location while the app runs in the background, as long as device permissions allow background/precise access and battery optimization doesn’t suspend the app. If the user force‑quits the app, turns off location, or the OS stops background services to save power, live updates may pause. Reopening the driver app resumes tracking and ETAs will refresh accordingly.
