FlexControlThree setups to compare
| Setup | What you manage | What to ask |
|---|---|---|
| App on your personal phone | The app, device and connection | Does search continue while the phone is locked? |
| Second device you maintain | A separate phone, power, updates and connection | What are the device and software costs? |
| Managed device with FlexControl | Rules and search controls in Telegram | Which plan duration fits your schedule? |
How account connection works
Connection methods differ between products. Read the service’s instructions and privacy policy so you understand where you sign in and where your session is used.
With FlexControl, follow the connection steps in Telegram and sign in directly on Amazon’s page. Return to the bot and wait for confirmation. FlexControl never asks for or stores your password. Your Flex session is then used on the device prepared for you. See our Privacy Policy.
What needs to stay connected
A locally running app depends on the device and connection it uses. A managed service runs separately from your personal phone. Check background-search requirements for the specific product rather than assuming every app behaves the same.
FlexControl runs search on your own device with us. Your personal phone receives Telegram messages; it does not need to keep the Offers screen open.
Your device, included in the plan
Your own device runs the real Amazon Flex app. Nothing to buy and nothing to install: FlexControl sets the device up and keeps it running for you, and it is included in every plan. Manage search from Telegram on your personal iPhone or Android.
There is no extra phone to buy or prepare. You still choose your stations, pay and schedule, and you can stop search through Telegram.
Compare the booking process
The useful steps are finding an offer, checking your rules, attempting acceptance and confirming the result. A fast filter check is only one part of that process.
FlexControl checks the Flex schedule before sending a booking confirmation. /log shows which offers were skipped and why.
Scheduled blocks and instant offers
Check which type of work the tool supports. Scheduled blocks and instant offers have different workflows. FlexControl searches scheduled blocks at stations available to your account; instant offers are not included.
Review account requirements
Read each provider’s terms and privacy details before starting.
