Yes the indoor part of operations has become very stop start to put it mildly. They’ve just ground to a halt with everything running on them.

Dunno if there was a software update this past weekend.
But the PDA today was extremely slow.
The Outdoor part of the app must have crashed about 20 times today.
Scan something as delivered turn screen off.
Turn screen back on for next parcel and its back to the main menu where its got to load the outdoor app from scratch again.
Feels like more bloatware/spyware has been added to it.
Sometimes even just trying to press buttons was like the thing was in slow motion.
Sounds like the same issue that was the demise of the last PDAs, too many apps running and not enough ram to accommodate them all at the same time.
Think it's more a case of trying to get a single app to do everything. The MC stuff and the DO stuff should be two completely separate apps.
