ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ShipShow Package Tracker holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ShipShow Package Tracker has 22 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of TrackParcel's written reviews are positive against 73% of ShipShow Package Tracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

TrackParcel ships an update every 3 weeks, ShipShow Package Tracker every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
