Mobile Package Tracker for Android

I love to know where my packages are, but hate having to go to each carriers website and type in the tracking number each time.

Mobile Package Tracker is the best app for tracking packages across all major carriers. This app comes in two flavors on the Android Market; Package Tracking Express (free 7 day trial) and Mobile Package Tracker ($0.99US). There are many apps that claim to be the best and may offer similar features, but none (I tried them all) offer the features, functionality and ease of use that Mobile Package Tracker does.

Not wanting to waste my hard-earned money, I opted to start with the trial version. The trail version is not feature-limited, but you will not be able to use it longer than seven days after installing. Features include tracking packages from FedEx, USPS, DHL, UPS, and TNT, barcode scanning for quick entry of tracking numbers, adding notes to your saved packages, and receiving notifications when the status of your packages changes.

When I first installed, I happened to have a few incoming packages and one to ship out. The interface is simple and easy to navigate. Entering tracking numbers manually is easy enough if you are expecting a delivery and you can customize the list of carriers to select from (I removed TNT). If you send packages and have the shipping label available, then you can just scan the barcode, select the carrier, and you're set. The barcode scanner is great time saver.

Besides the barcode scanner, the notifications are the best feature about this app. While you can manually request updates, Mobile Package Tracker will check the status for you on a set schedule (from every 15 minutes to 24 hours) and you can select if you only want to know if it's delivered (or exception) or all status changes. The type of notification is up to you; ringtone, email, vibrate, and/or LED blink and you can select multiple types.

After just a couple days, I knew that the Mobile Package Tracker was going to be well worth the $0.99!
