APPS WE LOVE

Where’s My Package?

Parcel tracks everything you’ve got coming.

Parcel tracks all your packages in one place—an incredibly handy thing at a time when we’re ordering online more than ever. Just give the app your tracking info (it supports more than 300 services) and Parcel provides a live dashboard with the status of every shipment. You’ll know at a glance when each package will be delivered, no matter where it’s coming from.

What we love: How easy it is to follow your deliveries: Paste a tracking number or URL into Parcel and give the shipment a name (like “Red Shoes”). Or add Parcel to the macOS Share menu (in System Preferences > Extensions > Share Menu) to add a delivery right from Safari or by Control-clicking a tracking number or URL. Or connect Parcel directly to your Amazon account to automatically track every new Amazon order!

See how many days until each package is delivered, and use widgets to see the latest updates.

Quick tip: Enable “Show Parcel in Menu Bar” (in the app’s preferences)—or add the app’s Mac widget—for quick access to delivery status; sign up for a Parcel account to sync your deliveries across the Mac, iPhone, and iPad versions of the app.

Meet the creator: While developing Parcel, Ivan Pavlov had to learn about nearly every shipping operator in the world: “When I meet someone from a different country and I mention the name of its local postal company, they’re impressed.” One of his favorite features in the app is Find on Map: “It is such fun to see how your package is coming to you!”
