• UPS tracking information is no longer available in the app. You can now manually enter a delivery date for UPS shipments, and you’ll get a notification on the delivery date at 9AM as a reminder. You will need to use the “view details online” button to check the status. As a reminder, here’s our statement from last year on the future of Deliveries: juncld.com/e3Gm • Search has been redesigned to work in a more standard way. • The Add Delivery view has been improved, so you can see more of the text, and it's easier to review your choices. • The iPad layout has been refreshed, with a consistent sidebar button in the upper-left corner, and a swipe gesture to reveal the sidebar. The settings button has been moved to accommodate this change. • Keyboard navigation is significantly improved on iPad. • Drag and drop has been improved. For example, you can now drag a delivery into the Files app to create a deliveries file. • Settings views are no longer dismissed automatically after changing them (for example the sort view). • Signing in to Junecloud is easier if your account is saved in iCloud Keychain. • Improved performance when iCloud is temporarily unavailable. Previously this could reset iCloud sync, which can be a slow process with a lot of data. Now it will no longer reset unless you turn off iCloud sync or the database is reset. • Fixed an issue where a background update or extension update might stop before all the work was complete. This was especially noticeable in the “Add to Deliveries” extension—it would fail to update and sync the delivery you just added. • Improved the appearance of map routes in cases where a package goes back and forth between two locations. • Updated for changes to OnTrac, Canada Post, and Aramex Shop and Ship. • Improved date parsing for Amazon. Overnight deliveries should show the correct dates now. • Improved order detection on apple.com. • Improved mapping for DHL. • Worked around an issue where iOS would ask to save your Junecloud password to the keychain even if you had tapped cancel, or the password was incorrect. This bug also caused two different prompts when signing in successfully. Now you should only be prompted to save a valid password, after a successful sign in. • Fixed an issue where the app didn’t update immediately after turning on iCloud or Junecloud sync. • Fixed issues with password autofill when importing from a site or signing in to a service. • Fixed a crash when creating a new Junecloud account. • Fixed a crash that could happen when adding a placeholder with certain URLs. • Fixed a crash when saving a password from a web view. • Fixed some other possible crashes. • Some of the oldest code in Deliveries has been rewritten for better performance. • Improved how logs are written to disk, making it more efficient. • Support for the old style of Today widget has been removed. • Some other minor adjustments. • Note: iOS 14 or later is now required. Apple Watch: • Complications have an improved design on watchOS 9 or later. • You can now select a specific delivery for watch face complications on watchOS 9 or later. You can even show different deliveries in different complication slots, or on different watch faces.

• Fixed a bug where calendar events may not have updated after a delivery date changed to an earlier date. • Fixed a bug where map routes might have displayed in the wrong color. • Improved the Japanese text on shared images. • Fixed repeated crashes in the Apple Watch app on watchOS 8 and earlier.

October 24, 2022

• Updated for iOS 16 and the latest devices. • Lock Screen widgets are now available on iOS 16. Your next expected delivery is shown by default. When you’re editing your Lock Screen widgets, you can tap on a Deliveries widget you’ve added to change which delivery is shown. • You can now manually enter a delivery date for shipments from services we are no longer able to support. These shipments can also be manually marked as delivered. • Deliveries will now show a notification on the day they’re expected, including shipments with a manually entered date. This notification will be delivered at 9AM, unless there was already a notification earlier that morning. • Improved clipboard detection on iOS 16. If Deliveries frequently asks for permission to access to paste from other apps, make sure you have iOS 16.1 or later installed. Tap the gear icon, tap “Clipboard Detection”, then tap “Open Settings”. Then tap “Paste from Other Apps” and select “Allow”. • The online view is now shown as an overlay you can swipe down to dismiss. This makes it faster to return to the app if you’ve opened any links on the site. • Added support for scanning Codabar barcodes, which are often used by FedEx and Yamato, for example. This feature requires iOS 15.4 or later. • Improved performance of the barcode scanner, particularly on older devices. • If you use Mail to Deliveries, you can now review messages that were recently forwarded to your account. Visit junecloud.com/sync, sign in, tap the gear icon to open the settings, then choose “review recent messages”. • If you’re signed into a Junecloud account, there’s now an option to delete your account in the sync settings. • Fixed issues with creating an account in the app. • Fixed issues with item name detection when importing from Amazon. • Fixed an issue where some characters, like a closing parenthesis, were unintentionally removed from the end of the item name. • Fixed a bug where certain characters (like tabs) in the item name would cause an unexpected “fill out all required fields” error. Characters that aren’t allowed are now replaced with spaces. • Fixed a bug with iCloud sync that could result in delivery settings unexpectedly reappearing, particularly dates. • Fixed a bug where map routes might be the wrong color. • Made an adjustment to how data syncs in to the app, so it’s less likely to cause issues with future versions when a service is added or changed. • Some other minor improvements. Apple Watch: • Updated for watchOS 9 and the latest devices. • The large rectangular complication has an improved design that includes the current status of your package, just like our new Lock Screen widget for iPhone. • Placeholders and deliveries from unsupported services can now be marked as delivered on Apple Watch. • Improved the appearance of notifications. • Note: watchOS 7 or later is now required.

February 11, 2022

This update fixes a crash that could happen when opening the app. We have also fixed an issue on our server caused some purchases to expire unexpectedly. The previous update included enhancements for iOS 15, improved sharing, and more. For full details, visit juncld.com/e39G • Fixed a crash that could happen when opening the app. • Updated copyright dates.

January 28, 2022

• Updated for iOS 15. • Sharing a single delivery via Messages is greatly improved. You now get a perfectly formatted link with the name of the delivery. If there’s a location, the link preview will show the map. If there’s no location, it will show the Deliveries icon. • Sharing via AirDrop now sends a link instead of a file, so it’s easier to share with someone that doesn’t have the app. • Sharing multiple deliveries now shows an accurate preview with a file icon and the number of deliveries being shared. It works more consistently and just shares a file in most cases. It also works with more services—for example you can now save to Notes. • Notifications that a package has been delivered are now marked as Time Sensitive on iOS 15. • When you use “Hey Siri, share this” or the “Add Link” button in Quick Notes, it will now use a link to share.deliveries.app. This allows those links to open in Deliveries, so they’re better for sharing and you can use them to check on your own shipments. • Improved keyboard shortcuts and navigation on iPadOS 15. • The “…” button now uses a standard menu on iOS 14 or later. • The “…” menu now always shows a “Sign In” option for Amazon orders, in case you need it. • You can now search for Apple orders using a tracking number for an individual shipment in that order. • Improved how clipboard detection is handled the first time the app is opened. • Improved validation of tracking numbers. For example there were certain cases where as USPS number with spaces would give an error instead of automatically removing them. • Improved validation for FedEx tracking numbers and Apple order numbers. • Improved support for scanning Poste Italiane barcodes. • Improved tracking number detection for LaserShip. • Improved how map views determine what part of the map to show. • Improved filtering of unwanted numbers when adding from an email. • Improved the appearance of the subscription view. • Improved results for “Add multiple deliveries” on Amazon. This is now an easy way to add all orders that have not already been added. • Fixed a bug where some deliveries might show “delivery date unknown” and no other information when there was an error updating the delivery. • Fixed a bug where an archived item that was removed from a calendar might be added back. • Fixed a bug where the “Background Notifications” setting could not be turned off. • Fixed a bug that could cause the widget to crash and appear blank after upgrading from an earlier version of the app. • Fixed a bug where deliveries could fail to update after a device was set to a date in the future. • Fixed a bug in the barcode scanner where the flashlight button was partially visible on devices that don’t support this feature. • Fixed a bug where the “Show more” button on the “Add Delivery” screen was sometimes cut off. • Fixed an issue tracking DHL numbers with a dash. • Fixed an issue where new items did not always appear at the top of the list when using manual sorting. • Fixed an issue where the app would needlessly sync with Junecloud immediately after a time change. • Fixed some animation quirks when archiving or deleting an item via a context menu. • Fixed some quirks with the preview when you press on a delivery. • Made some adjustments to the barcode scanner to reduce crashes. Apple Watch: • Updated appearance for watchOS 8. • Support for Apple Watch Series 7. • On Apple Watch models with an always-on display, the app will now dim to conserve battery instead of blurring out. • When the current location is unknown, the map will now center on the previous location when possible. • Fixed a bug where the “Updated…” text at the bottom might be cut off. • Fixed a bug where the app might freeze when scrolling down the detail view on watchOS 8. • Fixed a bug where some data was not saved correctly, which could result in missing data after archiving a delivery on Apple Watch.

September 23, 2021

This update fixes some common issues with our previous update, which included many other improvements. For full details, visit juncld.com/e39G • Fixed an issue where the app might get stuck “updating” if it was unable to upgrade the database from an older version. In most cases the app is now able to upgrade the database. If it is still unable to, the problem is now handled automatically, and a new, empty database is created. • Improved the upgrade process to minimize freezes or crashes when handling a large database. • Fixed a crash that could happen if Handoff was used before the app had a chance to upgrade its database. • Fixed an issue that prevented suggestions from showing on the Add Delivery screen. • Fixed an issue where the app might needlessly download an older service update than the one included with the app. • Fixed an issue where parts of the app’s update process (like refreshing deliveries or syncing) might not work if the startup process was interrupted. This situation is now handled automatically.

September 13, 2021

This is a significant update, though many of the improvements are behind the scenes. There are a large number of improvements to reliability and performance, and many smaller changes to make Deliveries easier to use. • Sharing a delivery now includes a link to deliveries.app that makes it easy for the recipient to add the item to Deliveries or view the tracking page online. If you use a “copy” action you’ll get the same info as before, with a link directly to the carrier’s tracking page. • The barcode scanner can now detect tracking numbers in text. It’s also faster and better at ignoring unwanted barcodes. • DHL shipments are now updated through deliveries.app for improved reliability and efficiency. For more about this change, visit juncld.com/e3FC • “DHL Express” is now labeled “DHL”, and supports most DHL shipments. “DHL GlobalMail” is now labeled “DHL eCommerce”. • Improved suggestions when adding a new delivery. • Improved how the Add Delivery screen shows deliveries detected on the clipboard. This simplifies the options available and allows you to dismiss the clipboard suggestions if that’s not what you wanted. • If there are multiple tracking numbers on the clipboard, Deliveries can detect all of them. • Improved how items with multiple packages refresh. For example if you have an order with one package that was already delivered, that shipment is no longer refreshed along with the others. • Maps for deliveries with multiple packages now emphasize the selected package. Maps in notifications focus on the route that’s relevant to the notification. • Map views are more efficient, and better at handling errors looking up locations. They’re less likely to animate unexpectedly while you’re adjusting the view, and they look a bit nicer too. • Creating a placeholder with the current date no longer automatically marks it as delivered. You can use the “Mark Delivered” button afterward if necessary. • Improved how parts of the app communicate with each other, for more immediate updates. • Improved syncing reliability. • Improvements for signing in to third-party services. • Item name suggestions are now ordered by when they were last used. • Fixed an issue where choosing an “edit an existing delivery” option on the Add Delivery screen might leave that item archived after saving. Now this will always show a “Restore” button. You can still edit the name of an existing delivery without restoring it if you use the search field to find it, open the “…” menu, and choose “Edit”. • Improved how the subscription view shows previous purchases. • Improved tracking number detection for Chronopost, DHL, La Poste, and UPS. • Improved link detection for DHL, USPS, and Swiss Post. • Improved importing from UPS. • Improved the appearance of the widget in situations with limited information. • Calendar events include the tracking number and link, and titles are limited to 64 characters. • The “open the app to resume background updates” notification will no longer appear if you don’t have any deliveries. • Fixed an unexpected error if you used certain characters in the Item Name field, like the chef emoji. • Localization improvements. • Fixed many different causes of crashes, and other reliability improvements. Apple Watch: • The Apple Watch app has been completely rewritten, with many small improvements. • Improved syncing reliability. • If iCloud sync is enabled, and you have another device with Deliveries installed, the Apple Watch app can show notifications even when your iPhone is unavailable. • The largest text size setting now uses an alternate layout for improved accessibility. • The complication for the Extra Large watch face is improved on Apple Watch Series 4 or later. It now uses a “gauge” style that includes a circular progress meter. • Note: maps on Apple Watch now require watchOS 7 or later.
