[@Texas_Made_]

This app is so much more annoying than using ubereats...especially the GPS system..good thing I know my area...also I HATE having to take a photo of every order unlike uber you have the option to skip that..the whole "dashing" thing is annoying as well...I have to keep clicking the app on and off to refresh it to get any action...only reason I signed up really was because the payouts are good and I need to start multi Apping BUT lordd the things I mentioned need to change.

[@brendaplunkett8659]

I just qualified to be a dasher today. Where is the heatmap? How do get online? Uber you push and GO. Is there some super secret app for drivers?

[@OfficialBartNash]

I don't get it. I signed up and was accepted but every time I log into the app I can't get past the 1st page that says *_"Set Goal For The First Week"_* The screen just keeps repeating. Could it possibly be because I live outside of the zip code I want to dash in?

[@budgetingwithlesbpetty]

I’m so glad your in same city as me. I just got approved yesterday I’m in Arlington. It wasn’t busy so I had to drive to Berry. Ok not bad but just wanting to know can we dash in areas that’s not busy because apparently all my dash keep pulling up is like downtown area. It keeps showing it’s not busy where I stay.

[@Therideshareguy]

The app will tell you when you can "Dash Now". If there are too many Dashers on the road, it will tell you to schedule later.

[@budgetingwithlesbpetty]

@@Therideshareguy ok I’m dashing now it allows me. It says I’m in a busy area how long before I get an order.

[@parzivalulq2927]

It will be my first time to use this kind of app. Im planning to use it for this coming sembreak. Am I should be on the road near by the store to get and deliver the order on time or is it fine even I am at home to get their orders?

[@lisasmillman]

I just started last week. Thank you for the info. My question is when an order pops up with total dollar amount and miles, how can I tell if total includes a tip?

[@Therideshareguy]

On Door Dash, the amount shown includes the tip, unless the tip amount is over $8.00. Then the actual amount will be shown after delivery is completed.

how long does it take for the red card to arrive

[@tc8591]

Great video.Question if I may. Just started DD. When I get to take photo section I assume you select the camera option but after snapping the photo how do you get back to the confirm page? Is there a button on the actual photo page that brings you back to where you should be? Is it automatic? I close out the photo then the app brings me back to the take photo page again. I would be most appreciative if you could provide any insight. I've done Uber Eats for 3 months and that app gives a smooth step by step flow. Thank you much. Tom

[@realbkg]

Huh? You take the pic it goes to the next step of finishing the delivery

[@tc8591]

@@realbkg I take a photo and the app does not take me to the next step. The app takes me to the previous step and again tells me to take a photo. No photo is sent to DD or to the customer. It asks me to repeatedly to take a photo. I can never complete the delivery process because the photo does not save. I hope this clarifies my issues.

[@rockforester7908]

I know what you’re talking about & this screwed me up big time. When it was time to take the photo I thought I was supposed to leave the app, go to my own/separate photo icon & take a photo. Then I could get back to the app to the next step. It turned out that on the same page as where it tells you to take the photo there is place/thing/icon right on that same page that lets you take the photo they want. I didn’t see that & NO PLACE told me that. Sorry, but I did not see it or understand that. NOW I got it but it was NOT clear. So you take the photo FROM that same page & that’s how it gets stored & sent directly to Doordash. I hope I explained that ok & helped. Good luck 👍🙋‍♀️

[@tc8591]

@@rockforester7908 Hey Rock. Thanks for your response. I'll check that out.

[@ramblingrover7168]

@@rockforester7908 i started using the camera on my phone. When it asks me to complete the delivery steps, I'll select the photo using the "from gallery" option rather than the DD "from phone" option. The reason I do this was that there were many, many times when I would use the "from phone" option, started back to my vehicle only to find that the picture did not submit and it wanted me to take the photo again. To do that, I'd need to go back to the address and take the photo again. If the customer already picked up their food, I could not retake the photo, and I had no proof it was actually delivered. If I take a photo using my phone camera app, the picture is stored in my gallery, and I don't have to be concerned about it not submitting while at the door. I can even wait until I return to my car to complete the delivery steps.

[@herophant3648]

Nice , good, straight explanation to the point..

[@natalierene1]

Doordash screen is more confusing then ubereats and Instacart… And the font is smaller.. is annoying

[@tgwife1964]

I tried dashing a couple of times this week and will not be continuing. The app is so inconvenient, and distracting,, like someone said Uber, and even Lyft is straightforward and simple. It would be helpful if you could project it to your car's screen.

[@JayyStudio]

It keeps saying that my email doesn't match my phone number why is that?

[@JamesWilson-sb9iq]

Is there a way to get light on the camera for late night deliveries? This for for DoorDash

Get a cheap 1$ flash light at the dollar store. It’ll save you.

[@ManifestingMillionaire369]

They didn’t give me a orientation.

[@ExpoRavio1]

Hello, I’m completely new to door dash and wish to start Tomorrow but I’m nervous! I’ve heard you need a red card but I didn’t do that when the option was available is it needed? It claims that I won’t receive a red card order but if I do receive one what do I do? Also when delivering orders do I knock or leave the food at the door?

[@Jay-dh7dz]

Same question here.

[@King.OfAll22]

Hey bro if this is a tutorial rhen why not show us how to sign up ??? You skipped the who sign up part

[@babsblaney]

I have been working for Doordash for 2 weeks now and I'm wondering if there is a way to get notified when you have an order other than through your texts? Every time an order pops up on my phone it come as a text first and then it shows up on the app.

[@albertvidal956]

Yup super annoying

[@ghostwavewrider]

Anyone have any insight into what phones and versions of Android work best with the app? Does it work well on Android 9?

[@svnbit8408]

Don't upgrade to 13 it's buggy I couldn't log in for days who knows what issues I'll have o think the beta might have helped.

[@viajerozz]

So the idea is I schedule a "dash" which is a block of time I am available to work and then DoorDash sends me deliveries as they become available? Also, I'm confused on how to let DoorDash know when and where to send me deliveries..should I drive to a hot location and sit and wait or should I check the app to somehow request deliveries from certain areas?? What is the process?? Thanks!

[@Therideshareguy]

Correct, if you schedule a Dash, then you'll get orders during that time period. If you open your app and see the Dash Now option, that means they need Dashers to login right now to handle orders. Many drivers say it's best to not drive around empty too much, but they map can help you. You will quickly learn the areas in your city that are most busy. Hope this helps.

[@stacycohrs4412]

I was doing DoorDash for the first time tonight. I canceled a dash because it wasn’t showing me how far I had to go to deliver it,. wasn’t showing me where the drop off was.

[@remytechz10]

Spark_Techz is gonna help you out on that bro

[@realbkg]

What he is not saying is they do not know how traffic or weather conditions are where you are. Example it snowed here a couple months ago and the had pick up times and drop off that were unrealistic with the snow. Every puck up was late and every drop off was late at least 10 to 15 mins. Because they do not monitor weather. They also do not monitor construction of any type. Sometimes the construction is not a big deal but more often than not there is a major street or highway closed for construction so you have to detour around that takes time they don't take that in to account so you drop off the order late get a bad review. Not to mention door dash base pay is crap. They all offer bonus pay at times that are dead in some areas. Up here in Tacoma Wa we have a great $5 bonus per order all the time almost 24/7 the issue is its on a island and you have to take a ferry to and from a d the ferry are not running on usual time due to covid however the times on the app do not reflect that

[@rockforester7908]

I was under the impression that their software monitors the weather, in detail, everywhere. If that is going on like you say I myself would call DD immediately & explain the situation. I don’t know this for a fact but this is what I myself would do. Good luck.

[@TomTom-gn9mp]

"Pick up by 1..."? "Looking for..."?

[@jeanninequarles2620]

I am not able to do any of these things in the app.I cannot even do a first dash or schedule a dash.I have tried everything.

[@rockforester7908]

Hi! If you haven’t got this worked out yet I would call Doordash right away & get them to go through things step by step. Their instructions are AWFUL. If you can’t get them on the phone email them & ask for a phone call. These are just what I would do -I don’t work for DD & am new myself. Good luck.
