*2024-12-11, version 1.25.0*

The app doesn’t work it’s shut down and the devs haven’t removed it from the App Store.

### 1/5 — Sold yourself out?

*2024-12-05, version 1.25.0*

After all the praised and thank you from world, did you guys sold yourself and shutdown?

### 1/5 — App is retired

*2024-08-18, version 1.25.0*

App is retired

### 2/5 — If it’s shut down remove it

*2024-07-09, version 1.25.0*

Why does Apple allow an app that isn’t even up anymore or working stay in the App Store?

### 1/5 — Para app已關閉

*2024-07-04, version 1.25.0*

Para Gig 的App已關閉狀態為何不下架
放任繼續下載空殼App團體
真的很差勁評價：👎👎👎👎👎

### 1/5 — Contract violation

*2024-06-18, version 1.25.0*

Giving your gig work app login to a third party is an extreme contract violation. Not worth it in an app that never works

### 1/5 — App is Shut Down

*2024-06-06, version 1.25.0*

In Developers own words:

The Para app has been shut down

We have decided to take Para in a new direction and into a space where we feel we can truly make an impact. For more information visit gigsafe.com

Why is it still in the Apple Store?

### 1/5 — Broken

*2024-05-27, version 1.25.0*

This app is shut down. No idea why. They took my mileage reports for tax deductions. When it was working it was pretty good. I liked multi-apping, but that might be why they are shut down. Also, always wanted location data instead of only when the app was open which was annoying. 

Don’t download. Or do. I’m not your mom.

### 1/5 — Shutdown.

*2024-05-15, version 1.25.0*

The company shutdown so the app is useless

### 1/5 — App has been shut down

*2024-05-13, version 1.25.0*

I tried to download the app and it says it’s been shut down and to check out GigSafe, which doesn’t accomplish what Para did. Now I’m paying Mystro $20/month since they’re now a monopoly.

### 1/5 — Cant access logged mileage

*2024-05-10, version 1.25.0*

I understand the developers no longer wish to support the app but I primarily used the app to track my miles for the tax deduction. Now the app only has one screen stating the app is shut down with no clear way to access our data. Extremely disappointing and quite frankly expensive!

### 1/5 — App shut down

*2024-05-10, version 1.25.0*

Allegedly they took an undisclosed amount from Uber and Grubhub to shut it down.

### 3/5 — *UPDATE*Very helpful little app.

*2024-05-10, version 1.25.0*

*UPDATE* Well, it’s official folks. Para is no longer available. Per their own press release, the app has ended. I would rate 5 stars at start, 4 stars for only Uber Eats, and now. I just hope an alternative becomes available. If you are reading this & know of a working alternative, please put it in your review!

Let’s get this out of the way - only UberEats integration works for me on this app. Hopefully, they’ll get GrubHub working again soon. It’s probably a cat and mouse game working with platforms that would rather you don’t. That said, Para is free and still extremely helpful with the things it can do. So I may grumble to the devs sometimes, but I am thankful and believe they are doing their best. I try to be grateful for what it can do. Thank you.

### 3/5 — Loved this app but stopped working

*2024-05-08, version 1.24.16*

This app was my hero but sadly no longer works. I’ve turned it on and off and even unlinked my uber account and relinked it and still, the auto decline feature was no longer working which is what I would mainly use this app for. :/ Not sure if it’s a bug on the app or block from Uber no longer letting me use this app.

### 1/5 — NO LONGER USEFUL

*2024-05-02, version 1.24.16*

This app USE TO sync with UberEats and that is no longer the case! Please put a patch in to fix this!!! Also no longer getting gigs through Para directly! The only feature that is of use as mileage tracking and I can do that on any app!

### 1/5 — They went to the dark side

*2026-08-17, version 1.25.0*

They stopped supporting the driver and shutdown this app. Now they are pivoting to help gig companies onboard new drivers.

### 1/5 — Why is this still on the App Store?

*2025-12-29, version 1.25.0*

I just downloaded this for the first time, but when I opened it, it said that it has been shut down!  Why is this even available for download, when it is not even functional?

### 1/5 — THIS APP IS SHUT DOWN

*2025-10-30, version 1.25.0*

What this app work?

### 1/5 — No Longer Exists

*2025-01-11, version 1.25.0*

I don’t know why this is still on the App Store. When you open it, it says they have shut down the app to “head in a different direction”. Sure enough, a Google search confirms they shut down the app in May, 2024 :(

### 1/5 — Shut Down

*2025-01-08, version 1.25.0*

As of today, 1-7-2025, this app shows “Shut Down” on an iPhone XR

### 5/5 — No longer use

### 5/5 — No longer works!

*2024-05-28, version 1.25.0*

Sad to see this go! It was great at making sure I made at least $1 a mile. I need this back!

### 5/5 — I miss you Para! Plz return👍

*2024-05-15, version 1.25.0*

Please come back

### 5/5 — Para is Over

*2024-05-12, version 1.25.0*

I received an email from Para Customer Service that said as of May 1 the app would no longer be available to driver’s. What a Bummer 😕 Here’s the email:   Hello, Thank you for reaching out. After careful consideration, the Para app will be shutting down on May 1, 2024. This was not a decision we came to lightly. We evaluated our market value and realized that you can access many of our tools through various other apps. We felt we were no longer offering a unique experience to our users. We have decided to take Para in a new direction and into a space where we feel we can truly make an impact. We can’t promise that this will be the last that you see of Para, but we can tell you that it will be a while before you see Para again. Thank you for your support over the years.

### 5/5 — 電話

*2023-11-10, version 1.24.0*

無法輸入電話

### 5/5 — Help

*2023-06-24, version 1.21.2*

We need this in Australia hurry up and get here

### 5/5 — Essential Gig App

*2023-06-13, version 1.20.1*

I recommend every driver download this app. It is great for Uber, Uber Eats, Grubhub, and Lyft. It auto declines bad orders so you can focus on making the most money. Another feature lets you flag restaurants and customers you never want to see again so you don’t accidentally accept orders for them. You can also flag good experiences with restaurants and customers. I’ve had Para for over 1 year and it continues to improve with every update.

### 5/5 — A must for drivers!

*2023-05-19, version 1.19.2*

Para is the most beneficial app for gig drivers. They offer so many great features that make my work day easier. One of my favorite features is geo filtering. There are places in the city where we have dead zones that don’t offer much work and with geo filtering I can remove those areas from my work area. The app can auto cancel orders in those dead zones. It saves me time and helps me earn more. You must download the app.

### 5/5 — Payment

*2023-05-15, version 1.19.1*

Really like the app and the extra work but beware... if you are not on top of things you won't get your tips.... I took a gig for 52$ when I was done it said 81$. Next one I took $52 but this when I was done it was $125 that was my tip. ℹ questioned the catering company and I got full pay.... if you are not aware you won't get your full pay. Just because you accept a job doesn't mean there are not tip's involved which they are keeping. Why do they do that they already get paid .....
