I’d used Slice for many years and it improved nicely, but slowly it degraded over time until it was mostly useless. The hunt for a new tracking app began and I tried a few and narrowed it down to this app Route and one other called Shop which is better suited to a phone than a tablet. This app beat them all out and is almost perfect. I can see the location of my packages on a map, copy the tracking number, mark a package as delivered, and submit feedback easily in app for each shipment individually. Pretty good I thought, but not perfect… yet. The dev seems to be making improvements which is better than an app that turns into abandonware. For this reason I’ll submit my own thoughts on what I feel is missing that could make me love this app more than I once did Slice. What is missing is the ability to add your own tracking information when there are mishaps in shipping and new numbers issued. If and when an image for the item being shipped is not correct it would also be nice to be able to browse for and add the right or a better image. I would love to be able to add notes to shipments as well for future reference and flagging certain shipments as important or even being able to pin them to the top would be great. I appreciate the hard work you’ve already put into this app and wish you continuing success with it. Thanks for reading my input!

Got the prompt to use route during the Christmas season. It was great! It picked up the orders, AND collected the tracking numbers without me having to do anything, it was incredibly hands off and convienent, I could keep track of all my packages at once. Now all it picks up is that I placed an order online, once I get an actual tracking number for the order I have to manually input it in the app for it to track. It's not a deal breaker, I'm still gonna use it but just kinda disappointed

The latest version of FEB 2021 is way faster than the older ones. The auto backup feature is great! Everything Seems to work well. But the outside screen with the trackings now has 1 line of text less. It used to have 3 lines. And spacing between trackings seems larger. The lack of the extra 1 line of text is crucial because it’s where the most important details usually are. With the newer interface we now have to go inside the tracking to see the details which some times it’s a waste of time. Additionally a line to separate trackings (like in the past versions) would make it more clear. I guess it’s 1 step forward, 1 step backwards. This App had everything to make it the best for the past 5 years but unfortunately everytime had at least 1 issue. Although it seemed to have sold all those issues in the past, issues solved in the past surface again and again from time to time.

I hate this app. Tracking is not updated in a timely manner. It is 2-3 days behind what shows with the carrier tracking site. Amazon doesn't work at ALL! You connect Amazon, and a browser window opens to your Amazon orders that keeps flashing/resetting. And even when it did work, It didn't update the tracking at all. To the point where the package never updated to say what the order was, never said when/if it would be delivered, or both.

Oh my gosh I don’t want to think how it would have been to deal with a lot of luggage and children using the metro. Luckily my friend in Paris recommended G7 taxi app because you can ask for a car with a booster or car seat which it’s hard to do with Uber. To my delight using ordering the taxi which we did multiple times was so easy and convenient because you put your card info and it makes a contactless payment and tipping a breeze. ALL of the drivers were so nice and some even spoke English. The metro is nice when you have no luggage but it also can be overwhelming and not necessarily working all the time 🤣 Anyway, I’m super happy I used G7! Now if you are at Orly airport usually the driver will come inside the door you agree on the app and pick you up there so don’t try to walk by yourself trying to find him 🤣 like I did one time. For Charles de Gaulle our driver waited for us at the bottom parking directly under the terminal door you agree to. So don’t just walk outside to wait for him. Rather read if it says “professional parking” it’s downstairs bottom parking because it’s easier and more convenient for both.

This app is so easy to use, accurate (e.g., when next train is coming), has real-time updates (e.g., line closures due to strikes - and there are so many! - or construction), etc. Two of my *favorite* features? Because this app is made by the RATP itself (i.e., real locals on the ground), it knows how critical it is to tell you not only which metro stop to use, but also precisely which of the many numbered exits at such metro stop to use, and which metro cars (e.g., front, middle, end of the train) you should choose in order to be closest to said exit upon arrival. For example, at a HUGE and complicated station like Chatelet, where multiple lines meet, and different exits can themselves be several minutes’ walk apart, this is verrry useful to know. Also, you can buy tickets and top up metro passes (I believe you need to first *have* a rechargeable metro pass to do either task) on the app itself - so convenient! I’ve spent tons of time in Paris as both a temporary resident and a tourist since the ‘90s (the days of using my Paris Par Arrondissement and my paper(!) Carte Orange to get around) - this app is a revolution!

I have used Google Translate for many years and some of the recent changes have frustrated me immensely. I use this primarily for Chinese language and often use the camera feature. Lately, it seems the app will not faithfully transcribe what is displayed, but will change the characters displayed. I can’t trust that the AI hasn’t decided to substitute what is displayed with something different and perhaps has changed the meaning, by even a slight, but significant amount. A faithful transcription will allow me to puzzle out what the meaning may by allowing me to review the characters displayed, not the characters that have been substituted. Also, with the same feature, I used to be able to view the characters in the photo and choose which characters to translate, but now, I can only choose the translated segments. If there is a way to view an untranslated version, other than sending it to the home page (with the already unreliable transcription of what is displayed), I haven’t figured it out.

Thank you, thank you, thank you I have no idea what we would have done without this app it was accurate and easy to follow. Purchase your metro ticket and follow the directions especially the part that states which line number and what it is towards. For example it will say line 4 towards Porte de Cignancourt. When you get into the metro you will see the line for and color corresponding to the color on the app you look at the final stop which you should see Port de Cignacourt as the last stop and that tells you you are getting on the train in the right direction. This app made it easy and we were certainly apprehensive about using the metro I watched numerous YouTube‘s but until I downloaded this app nothing made sense. We went everywhere on the metro sightseeing all the major attractions for a fraction of the cost of taxis do yourself a favor and download the app.
