### 2/5 — Piece of trash

*2026-08-24, version 6.45.0*

Favors running is now piece of trash. They would send you orders outside of your zone. I keep on declining them, and now my AR is low now. Well I think it is time to move onto other gig app

### 3/5 — Can't quite live even a style, money separations, distances

*2026-08-23, version 6.45.0*

Hello I'm a runner, out in Texas. I'm about 2m in and I mean I'm able to have gas but with a car that ain't to much in yearly it's more a gamble, the verification on add/changing your money card shouldn't take 3 days.

### 2/5 — Why

*2026-08-22, version 6.45.0*

There should be consideration for some cities where they want to send you on a seven dollar trip that’s 15 miles total drive to get back to your neighborhood after you’re finished. Does not matter if I got elite status they would still send me BS orders, which will mess up my elite status. They did not hold true to their word. They should stick to H-E-B pharmacy and H-E-B orders the restaurant orders are BS. Let DoorDash handle that.

### 4/5 — Favor Runner/Driver

*2026-08-21, version 6.45.0*

If you only like shopping HEB and drop off!.. it’s Perfect for that!! it’s has other delivery options that I guess HEB has turned off… 2 months and 60+ deliveries has my proof!

### 2/5 — On-time rate

*2026-08-06, version 6.44.1*

U should quit this if u are not going to recognize traffic or delays on behalf of restaurants, since I was seeing my rating, I have 5 orders that are not in time because of it, so, what’s the point of it?

### 2/5 — Better than DoorDash…barely

*2026-07-31, version 6.43.1*

Favor is better than DoorDash, but only barely, since they don’t punish you as harshly as DoorDash for declining trash, low pay high mileage orders, but there’s just as many of those types of orders offered by Favor. 

The pay structure of all of these apps is criminal, $2 base pay and whatever tips the customer sees fit to provide. Here’s an example of an order I completed yesterday, $9.40 ($2.00 base pay, $7.40 tip)for a 54 item shop and deliver that’s 7 miles away and takes an hour to complete. This is not an outlier, it’s the norm. If you’re not very careful you’ll be working for less than minimum wage to shop and deliver someone’s groceries using your vehicle and your gas. Promo pay only seems to be available on Sunday afternoons, which is where you can actually expect to be compensated fairly, the rest of the week are low pay, high item count, 3rd floor apartment bottled water deliveries.

HEB needs to do better, this isn’t a good look for a company that wants to have the image of an ethical Texan business. You’re taking advantage of desperate Texans who can’t find work in this economy, to service lazy, entitled customers who want to have their groceries delivered to their door at no extra cost to them. Expect to deliver to million dollar homes and to have to listen to complaints that the service is too expensive, when the pay barely covers your gas expenses. That’s why you’ve cut back on your in house delivery drivers and expect that Favor drivers can fill the gap. There’s always some poor schmuck that’s desperate enough to work for peanuts to try to cover their bills, so it’s a win for HEB. 

If you have any other options for work, take them over these predatory apps.

### 2/5 — It’s good if you want stay busy

*2026-07-29, version 6.43.1*

Yeah, I’ve been running the Favor app for a while, and I will say that sometimes the money can be pretty good. But a lot of the time, especially with the H-E-B runs, the pay just doesn’t seem worth the amount of work involved.

For example, I recently had an order with 105 items, and I only got paid $13. When you factor in the time, effort, and size of some of these orders, the compensation often doesn’t match the workload.

Overall, Favor isn’t a bad app, but in my experience, it just doesn’t pay that great for the amount of work you sometimes have to do.

### 2/5 — Favor runner

*2026-07-27, version 6.43.1*

Favor is a very unfair platform

### 3/5 — Are bonuses and promos worth it?

*2026-07-27, version 6.43.1*

From my experience running the last couple years it seems like when there is a bonus or a promo the cost of the delivery is adjusted to keep you around the same amount as if there wasn’t a bonus or promo going on at all. Example I run a 65 piece shop and deliver without a promo and I make typically between 19 and $25. Today I ran a 65 piece shop and deliver with a four dollar bonus in the area yet the cost for the delivery was $15. If you add the four dollar bonus you get a $19 delivery.. This has happened more than just today. I’m just curious if these bonuses are actually bonuses or if they’re just blind bait to make people think they’re going to make more money. That being said I do like running favors, but it just seems that it can be a little dishonest sometimes.

### 3/5 — The app

*2026-07-24, version 6.43.1*

I was logging for two hours and nothing ever popped up, but I keep having issues with the app. It just freezes and spins, and this will be my fifth time having to uninstall it and reinstall it.

### 4/5 — Suggestion Please

*2026-07-20, version 6.42.1*

I wish there were toggle switching of WHICH stores you wanted to run from in each zone. Seems doable, no? 

Annoying to be IN your preferred store and you get offers from other stores. I have had to unassign for that. Ooops.

Also, would be helpful to really explain “total distance” in your FAQ section. I’ve had to contact H-E-B three separate times just to get the right answer. It seems a lot harder than it should be.

Thank you. 

(I deleted the other things that bother me. You’re welcome!)

### 3/5 — New promos 👎

*2026-07-19, version 6.42.1*

Haaaaaaaate the new promos where you have to do 8 orders to be able to make $165. Please go back to the old way per order. there’s no way to complete all 18 deliveries for promos in less than 12hrs. I actually love favor and this makes me not look forward to promos feels like a regular week day. Wish I could say worse but I love yall.

### 1/5 — Pay

*2026-07-18, version 6.42.1*

Yall expect the runners to shop and deliver and the items and the pay is low ball. For example a $18.90 delivery and shopping for over a 100 items isn’t fair and with the gas price and our time should be more than that. Then you get penalized for refusing a delivery due to the fact of low pay.

### 1/5 — Deposit wait time w

*2026-07-17, version 6.42.1*

The wait is crazy I can run for you guys but then I have to wait the first time to get my money out 48 hours … ? That needs to change

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Took longer

*2026-08-30, version 6.45.0*

It said it would take 30 minutes but it actually takes 2-3 days to complete the process

### 1/5 — Wrong area

*2026-08-29, version 6.45.0*

The doesn’t send me order to the area I select. It sends me orders to my area I’m at.

### 1/5 — Horrible pay

*2026-08-23, version 6.45.0*

$6-$10 orders for 25-100+ item orders is absolutely ridiculous. Paid well about a year ago I don’t know whats happened recently but it’s not even worth wasting my free time anymore

### 1/5 — Delete it

*2026-08-21, version 6.45.0*

The pay grade on the app is absolute garbage. Did you not offer solutions for prepaid technical difficulties so if you are caught with an issue that’s technical and that’s not your fault and you tried to resolve the order for the customer favor does not help you whatsoever to resolve the issue and send the order to the customer and their compensation fee is terrible

### 1/5 — Not a Good App

*2026-08-08, version 6.44.1*

No orders come through for HOURS ‼️I fell asleep waiting for an order lol 😆 Don’t use this

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-08-04, version 6.44.0*

I wouldn't recommend Favor Runner anymore. They got rid of H-E-B curbside, so now it's mostly shopping in-store and delivering. The pay is low, and the mileage you put on your car isn't worth the small tips. It was much better from 2020-2024. Now it feels like the focus is more on making money than taking care of the drivers. In my experience, Spark has been the better option.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2026-07-31, version 6.43.1*

I’ve been trying to setup my app and it gives me a whoops message every time and I’ve also contacted the company and never get a response

### 1/5 — New promos 👎

*2026-07-24, version 6.43.1*

New PROMOS SUUUUUUUCCKKK

### 1/5 — Don't waste your effort

*2026-07-21, version 6.43.0*

They will send a notification of one amount that you'll be paid but then the actual amount you receive will be substantially less

### 1/5 — Low pay and scammers galore

*2026-07-19, version 6.42.1*

Favor started out great just like all the other shopping apps, but as quickly turned into the worst. Base pay  is only two dollars and they don’t provide mileage pay, heavy pay, or increased pay for multiple items. So you can be shopping 200 items going 20 miles and Favor still only pays two dollars. There’s also multiple scammers at stores during multiple times doing multiple batches. Photographic proof with name details has been sent to Favor to report these issues, but the scammer still stay doing multiple orders at a time.  They will shop one  order then park the shopping  cart near the bathroom and then do another order. The H-E-B employees are aware and say there’s nothing that they can do. Favor has the opportunity to be a great app, but like all the other companies seems to choose profits over its drivers.

### 5/5 — I love Being A Favor Runner

*2026-08-27, version 6.45.0*

How Favor make sure Driver accounts are safe! 

Other apps cant compare! I had security issues on other apps and lost accounts that were excellent that are still pending! Just wanted to make $ again after being a caregiver for my mother months in a rural area on her income and she passed and I lost everything! Tried financial to handle before her passing. She was 24hour care. Therefore, favor allowed me to recover account and begin to make $ again to get on my feet. Obviously, there security to your information is secure! Im still awaiting other apps to recover accounts that were taken over!

### 5/5 — Ima runner

*2026-08-25, version 6.45.0*

I love this Runner app because you earn more than you do with DoorDash. That’s just my opinion though. Time efficient and it’s only a $.99 fee to get paid instantly unless you wanna wait until it deposit for free. A really good app. I suggest people who are struggling to use it because it helps me a lot and I have two jobs 😂it helps!

### 5/5 — Very little

*2026-08-23, version 6.30.0*

You spend about a hour and a half shopping and delivering for $5-10 your body and transportation will not survive. Standard hourly pay of$20.00 and allow customers to tip if they choose

### 5/5 — Favor 🙏❤️

*2026-08-17, version 6.44.1*

La mejor app 👍😀❤️🙏

### 5/5 — Where do I start?

*2026-08-13, version 6.44.1*

Favor has been a life line that has been able to fill in the gaps of my life when I have had to stay afloat. I realized my potential many times that I could not give up because ppl show appreciation for small things like getting the groceries for them. Favor has been there for me on bad days when I could not go to the store myself during times of no transportation. Overall the fact that HEB owns Favor says a lot. I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to serve. Thank you for the extended support that is provided by means of   monetary work to provide for my family. I’ll be forever thankful. Thank you a thousand times.

### 5/5 — God is Good…

*2026-08-03, version 6.43.1*

I’m incredibly grateful to God for blessing me with the opportunity to work with FAVOR. This second job has been such a blessing it has helped me stay on top of my bills, build my savings, and create a little more financial peace of mind. Every delivery is a reminder that hard work, faith, and perseverance truly pay off. I’m thankful for every opportunity God continues to place in my path. 🙏❤️

### 5/5 — Better than other driver apps

*2026-07-15, version 6.42.1*

I drive for a few companies and the Runner app is the most informative to the driver. In the H-E-B shopping experience, it gives you the row and the shelf making it very efficient and very fast.

### 5/5 — Great app, lots of improvement made since started as a runner.

*2026-07-13, version 6.42.1*

Flexibility, good money, amazing tech support and a very easy to use app.

### 5/5 — Runner is the best

*2026-07-08, version 6.42.0*

This is by far the best app. It beats all of them out there for extra income

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-07-06, version 6.41.0*

Love to make money on this app and the tips are great
