Customisable but names could be better displayed

I love how simple & clean this app looks & feels yet still so customisable ie sorting options, what to display/hide (Recent Deliveries is great), notifications, the unique notif sound rather than using iOS stock sounds, and showing days to delivery.
Premium price is reasonable for a year (won’t be if it increases so hopefully they don’t get greedy).

Only criticism I have is we have to be too concise with naming our parcels as the titles trail off (“…”) if they go beyond the right side margin. I’d like if the titles’ font size are dynamically resized or just be smaller so all of/most of the titles could be shown.

Love it

Easy to use and works with all the shipping services I’ve ever tried. Syncs flawlessly between iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

Price Hike = Goodbye

Greed. That’s all this is. A 40.08% price hike. Absolutely ridiculous when tracking is free online, through Amazon, etc. Well, you lost a customer for life. Congratulations.

Spam

Works well, but every time I add a parcel to be tracked I start getting spam texts saying my parcel can’t be delivered and to click on a link! 🤷‍♂️

Best Tracking App

I’ve been using Parcel since it was launched and it has always been the best for me. I have tried a few others but none deliver the kind of smooth integration and reliability. Highly recommended!

Must have

Love the direct integration with Amazon!

Love it!!!

Great app :))

lifesaver

Parcel App is very simple to use. Keeps track of my deliveries and status updates without too much fuss and is especially6 good with deliveries from Amazon. I won’t do without it. The only frustration is very minor - the lack of a function to manually add a Courier.

A must have

This app keeps my packages going in and out organized. It’s clear what it does and it does it great. No fluff, no bugs, no learning necessary. It’s quick, it’s easy, and it’s helpful

Simply the best, most thoughtfully designed app of it’s kind

Does exactly what you’d want it to and more, really nicely designed, and with a tiny premium subscription you can use the API and do sooooo much more. Thanks for an awesome app

Worth the sub

In a world heavy laden with subscriptions, I find Parcel a very calming piece of my mind.

Getting Worse

This used to be the hands down best tracker. But for some reason they removed the feature to add deliveries from your email, which was how almost all of my packages were added. So after many years I have switched to ShipShow. Hopefully Parcel brings the feature back some day.

Fantastic Little App

This is a great little app that does what it says and does it well. It looks really good and gives you an easily readable status of your packages. It also works and look the same across macOS and iOS. Solid user experience!

Cancelled $7 too much

Getting greedy $7 a year it too much. $7 lifetime maybe ok. Lots of great free options now.

Now Requires Subscription

Have been around for over a decade. Now requires a subscription, unfortunately, to get full functionality. Moving elsewhere to another service…This used to be a hidden gem.

Absolutely gem of an app

I literally use this app every day across Mac, iPhone and iPad and I consider it absolutely essential and one of the most used apps I have

Subscription purchase fails

I guess I will get a different app 🤷‍♂️

Works well

Only app that appears fully functional across all couriers/USPS. Even works for less well known couriers. Desktop app compliments IOS/phone version too. Highly recommended.

Works well

Does as it claims well. The developer is responsive and updates the app and the tracking services frequently.

well worth the sub for the constant updates (and i normally try to avoid subs)

A phenomenal app!

I have gone through several package tracking apps over the years. I used to be a fan of Deliveries, but it mostly stopped working several years ago and fell into disrepair. Then I moved to AfterShip, which was never better than "okay" but it worked reasonably well. Then they started showing ads. I looked at their privacy policy and OMG!, no thanks! So I deleted my AfterShip account and found Parcel.

This is such a wonderful app:

1) It has a clean interface with well-thought-out options. The app is easy to use and everything is well presented.

2) Only $7 per year for a subscription. Given the utility provided, this is a very reasonable charge.

3) Privacy is respected: Its privacy policy explicitly confirms that tracking numbers, postal codes, and delivery history are never shared with third parties.

4) The app has full support for most Apple devices. Besides the main iPhone app, I really like the Watch app as a quick way to check on things.
