I generally avoid quick delivery apps because I don't want another human being trying to beat the traffic just to keep their delivery score high.

Instead I opt for grocery delivery where I can give a large order a day or two in advance and they don't have target of 15 minutes to beat.

Unfortunately, food delivery apps are exceptions to this but I use them like once or twice a month at most.

15 minutes? I've never used any delivery app where they had to be there in 15 minutes! Usually the "estimated delivery time" is like 45 minutes but there's no official set time they have to beat. They all seem to kind of take their time honestly lol

There's such a company in Amsterdam that promises to get it to you in under 15 minutes, but you don't see them that much any more, at least I haven't in the past year or so. I think they've been regulated out of the market. It's rare you can't do your own shopping more quickly, too.
