Troubleshooting
If something goes wrong
| What you see | What to do |
|---|---|
| "App not installed" | Usually not enough space. Free up around 200 MB and try again. |
| Blocked by Play Protect (direct APK only) | Tap More details then Install anyway. This only appears outside Google Play — installing from Play does not trigger it. |
| Download stops partway | Move to a stronger connection and try again, or install from Google Play instead. |
| Signed in but no orders show | Your route may not be active yet. Tell us where you are. |
