Driver app
Pick a break time before you sort
Choose a clock time, midway through the run, or after the last stop — when the office (or your Play settings) allow it.
If the office turned on planned breaks, the app can ask when before it sorts the stop order. After the sort, a Break row sits in the stop list — tap Start break when you take it. The same button is on the StopSorted notification (and the map bubble) when the break is next.
Fleet phones
- Add your stops, then tap Ready to optimize.
- Answer VIP stops first? as usual (VIP areas, No — sort the route, or Keep this order). Break time is only asked when you sort — not when you keep this order.
- If your fleet allows it, you will see When is your break?
- Choose Set time, Midway, or End (only the options your office turned on).
- If you picked a set time, tap the clock and choose when it starts.
- Tap Sort the route.
The office sets how long the break is (Fleet Settings → Breaks → Default break length).
You will not see this screen if the office has not turned on driver-picked time / midway / end.
Play subscription
Set this in the app menu → Settings:
- Turn on Use planned breaks (off until you do). Turn it off to drop lunch from the sort and hide the break row.
- Tap + Add break.
- Choose Set time, Midway, or End.
- If you chose a time, tap the clock. Set how many minutes.
- Tap Save.
Before you sort, the app asks you to confirm when the break is taken. After the sort, tap Start break on the break row.
