- ianai 9y agoSo not only do I work for you, but you want me to install your custom app on my personal device, too? I can't imagine there are any privacy backdoors here at all. Definitely not when I'm required to give it location permissions for it to function. /s
- petra 9y agoI see you don't work at Walmart. People there have more burning matters, like how to put food on the table. And you can block location requests(and the like) for the app, after work, Either with Android 6-7 or Lineage's privacy guard.

- zaroth 9y agoIf the incentive doesn't include a mileage reimbursement, then I'd say it's not a great deal unless their routing is extremely intelligent. I mean, if you're paying me to drive home and drop off a package at my neighbor's house, that's fine. But 10 packages are going to take quite a bit of driving around to deliver, and so you better be paying for time and equipment cost.
