—software that automates rapid mouse or screen taps—to claim these slots faster than a human physically could. Why Couriers Use Auto Clickers Shift Scarcity
Glovo operates on a shift-based system where couriers must "book" hours in advance to work. In many high-demand cities, these shifts are released at specific times and disappear within milliseconds. To secure a livable wage, couriers use auto clickers
An auto-clicker is a software tool (usually an Android accessibility service or a macro recorder) that simulates screen taps at predefined coordinates or based on pixel color changes. In the context of Glovo, users deploy them to gain an unfair advantage during (e.g., reserve a delivery slot, accept a high-value order before others, or get a flash promo code).
If you’re a courier facing unfair competition from others using bots, report it directly to Glovo support with timestamps and screenshots.
