If you do the majority of your shopping online, you may have already heard of Shopify, but have not discovered Shop just yet. The app makes it easy to do your online shopping from an array of different vendors, and the tracking information will automatically be added when the vendor provides the tracking number.

What makes Shop unique is that you can link your Gmail account, and then anytime a tracking notification gets sent, it will automatically be added for tracking. Then, you can follow your packages in real-time on a map, seeing exactly where the package is until it ends up in your hands. This is a great all-in-one shopping app for all of your needs if you would rather shop online than in the store.

OneTracker may not be as robust in the number of carriers that can be integrated (there is support for less than 100), but all of the major carriers such as UPS, USPS, DHL, and Amazon Logistics are supported. You can add your tracking information in a variety of ways, including manually, through automatic clipboard detection, or by scanning a barcode.

After creating a free OneTracker account, you'll be able to sync your tracking information across all of your devices, which comes in handy if you use devices on different platforms. There's even automatic tracking integration, but instead of scanning your inbox, just forward the shipping confirmation to a dedicated email address and it will appear in the app instantly.

17TRACK

17TRACK is a great app to use if you often order from China or countries where shipping to North America is sometimes dicey. It supports over 500 postal carriers, as well as many, many of the world's largest couriers like DHL, UPS, FedEx, and a ton more.

You get a custom widget for your home screen, alerts for status changes, syncing across devices, and you can add multiple tracking numbers at once while the app auto-detects carriers and tracks your packages accordingly.

Slice: Package Tracker

Slice is great as long as you're OK with an app having access to read your email. That's the whole point of this app: it reads your email, determines whether or not that particular email is for an online order, and automatically pulls your order details, organizing them for you and giving you updates on delivery status.

Slice pulls data from all the major U.S. carriers, like USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL, and others, and it even goes so far as to notify you if the price of something you bought has dropped since you bought it. If the retailer is supported by Slice, like Best Buy, Nordstrom, Walmart, and others, you can actually claim the price adjustment right from the app.

The main thing you have to be cool with here is Slice having direct access to your email. If you're not cool with that access, then settle for manually adding information to other apps. But if you want to go down the automatic route, this is the app for you.

Route - Package Tracker for Your Online Orders

View your package on a map, get real-time delivery updates, and manage your past order history with ease. If something happens to a package, you can even use Route to resolve those delivery issues, ensuring that you get the package you ordered in a timely fashion.

The USPS application may not be the first place to go for your package tracking, but it's surprisingly more robust than you think. If you sign up for Informed Delivery, you receive daily emails and notifications about what's actually coming in the mail, regardless of whether it's your bills or a package.

Of course, you can use the USPS app to do so much more than track your packages. You can order stamps, check prices to ship a package, or schedule pickup. In addition to tracking your packages from within the app, you can also set up text and email updates for specific packages, and fix any issues that may arise throughout the process.
