Arrive at pickup, Complete pickup, Arrive at delivery and Complete delivery open this screen. Arrive steps only check your location; complete steps also collect the proof your company asks for. What you see depends on your company's rules for that stop and the goods. The step's button sits at the bottom. For the steps in order, see Complete a delivery.

The location card

MessageWhat it means
Checking your location...Wait a moment
You are at the delivery address / You are 80 m from the delivery addressYou are close enough
You are 350 m away, move within 200 mToo far: the button stays off until you move closer. Long distances show in km (for example 26.6 km), or in miles and feet if your company uses miles.
You are 350 m from the address (over 200 m)Too far, but your company lets you continue if you say why in Why are you here? (required), e.g. "loading dock at the back"
Location is recorded, not checked, for this companyYour company doesn't check the distance
Location is offTap Allow location
Could not get your locationTap Check again

The distance allowed is set by your company (200 m unless they changed it). Check again only appears when the check failed or you are too far; it measures again after you move. A location found less than a minute ago is reused on the next step. The signature box does not trigger the iOS swipe-back, so you can sign left to right. With approximate location on, Open settings lets you turn on precise location.

The checklist

The rows are the things this stop needs: Location, Signature, Recipient name (or Signer name at a pickup), ID check (19+), Delivery PIN, Product photo, Barcode, Temperature reading, Packages handed over and Cash collected. A row ticks itself when done. The line under the button names the first thing still missing.
