Delivery Status - Keep informed of your Orders & Packages
Track your Packages & Orders
One of the improvements brought in by modern day technology to the postal system is the ability to track stuff of value that passes through it. If you’ve expecting a package or sending one for that matter, most logistics services like DHL, Fedex, UPS and so on provide you with a code that allows you to track the location of the package. This usually involves going to the page (like the one below for eg.) of the logistics service and entering the provided code to look up the status of the item that you are interested in. At times these sites are not designed to be the easiest ones for users who are in a hurry to check the status of an item. Well if you’re on a Mac then you can do this using a wonderful widget called Delivery Status.
Delivery Status - Track your packages
Delivery Status is available from Junecloud as a free download and is an incredibly useful and popular widget. Once you start using this, you’ll never again want to visit one of those convoluted tracking pages of any service again. As a mac application it comes with a wonderfully designed interface that is just a breeze to use and a pleasure to gaze at. What’s more its available at the tap of a button or a click of a mouse depending on how you’ve configured dashboard.
Although the interface looks deceptively simple, delivery status comes with a strong feature set and user interface. To start with, the widget will automatically query the status of your package at regular intervals automatically and keep itself updated. The app also makes use of growl notifier if you have it installed, keeping you updated on the status of the item that you’re tracking.

Delivery Status allows you to track any number of packages at the same time by just switching to your dashboard, which comes in handy during festive times when you’re sending and receiving gifts among family and friends.
