Tell it what you're sending – "UPS Ground from San Diego to Chicago" – or pick a carrier, service, origin, and destination. ParcelPath predicts the hubs and legs of the route, pulls the forecast for each stop at the time your package is expected there, and flags anything that could hurt it: freezing temperatures, extreme heat, heavy rain, snow, wind, or storms.

Where’s my package? Paste a tracking number, a carrier link, or a whole shipping email, or scan the barcode on the label.

Sign in with Apple, Google, or a code sent to your email, and Peek notifies you: every scan, the important steps, or delivery only. An email can tell you it has arrived. FOLLOWING MORE THAN ONE? They share one list, the next to arrive on top, riding on its map. With an account, the same list is on your iPhone and on the web at peektracker.com. A widget keeps your next delivery on the Home Screen. SOMEONE ELSE WAITING FOR IT? Share the package’s page with a link. They need no app and no account. Wrap it as a gift, and what’s inside stays a surprise until it arrives. A PASSPORT OF DELIVERIES With an account, every delivery counts in your passport, and some earn a stamp.
