Does EasyRoutes sequence stops to respect each order's delivery time window?

Yes. When a route has a scheduled start date and time and its stops carry time windows, the EasyRoutes optimizer sequences stops to arrive within each window while minimizing overall driving time, factoring in start/end locations and stop durations. Driver and customer ETAs reflect those windows. If a stop can't be met within the route's constraints, it's moved to the rejected stops tab so you can widen the window, adjust the start time, or split routes. This works in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
