I've never let my help use the phone or the board. They get distracted using both... All they are here for us to run packages. I take one side and you take the other side of the street. 525 pieces off by noon. Wait for bags this year in the beginning took forever. 2 hours to get our bags. The phones are ok I guess... Very slow... 3 months ago the phones were so so so much slower... When we first got them in our center they wanted us to test them everyday and give feedback on how they were. I did a base route with one of those put 80 stops into it, took at least 1.5 hours longer then it should because of the whole upload, loading, going back to the delivery screen. I took one for peak just because my board doesn't like the cold and will die by 3 - 4 pm.
A lady on my route is working on the new diad. She was telling me all about it. She said its almost half the size of our boards right now. She said they are working on making it faster and way better then our board right now. Lets just hope they don't have that ups app on it, haha. I can't stand that app that the phones have.
