Best Practices for Getting the Most Accurate Wait Time

 

  1. Does your initial wait duration need to be updated? (this is the setting you initially indicated how long the first person in line would wait?
  2. Do you make sure that when you leave for the day, no one is left in the queue overnight?
  3. Do you only summon out of order when absolutely necessary? (summoning out of order can affect your wait times)?
  4. Do you have a steady rate of summoning? (long periods without summoning can affect your wait times)
  5. Do you trust the algorithm and not try to manually override wait times? (manually overriding wait times can affect your future forecasted wait times)?

*QLess uses a very specific algorithm to take into account many different factors for your queues, including, but not limited to: historical data, current number of people in line, rate of summoning, etc.
