You can use its widgets to see your upcoming deliveries and the share extension to add a new delivery directly from any other app. Push notifications provided by Parcel are more convenient than from any other app. They are being sent only from 8am to 10 pm according to your timezone, so you will not be bothered at night (however, you can disable this option in the settings).

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ECONO at none against Parcel's 2. ECONO also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.0). Parcel's advantage is ratings volume (23K vs 1) and chart position (#22 vs unranked). On price, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
