Managing orders and your time

Every minute in the kitchen is critical. Use these tools to reduce wait times, give yourself a buffer or hit pause so orders don’t pile up.

Enable busy mode

Tap Settings on the homescreen, then Start busy mode. Pick the length of fulfilment time and how long busy mode is needed. To return to normal, tap End busy mode. For more info on managing orders, see our guide.

Give yourself more prep time

Tap the arrows by the remaining pick up time to delay the order by 5, 10, 20 or even 30 minutes. Order ETAs will update automatically. This feature can only be used only once per order.

Pause or stop new orders

Tap the navigation button and hit Pause new orders. Then Confirm. To receive orders again, go to the Settings tab on the homescreen, then Resume new orders.
