Package Buddy is a package tracking app designed to allow you to track your packages, from many carriers (listed below), anywhere you go with your phone or tablet.

Pro users can sync with all of your Android devices (no extra cost if linked on same Google Account). Pro users can also now forward shipping confirmation emails to packages@package-buddy.com to automatically add packages to their account (BETA).

Use the settings to customize your experience. Set which lists to display, how much information to show, and when your device automatically updates/backs-up/syncs. Visit the FAQ on our site for more information.

Add packages easily by entering in the necessary information, or head to http://www.package-buddy.com/code to create a QR code to scan in.
Send package information to others easily with the share screen. You can click on some carrier links to automatically fill out package information into Package Buddy.

With Package Buddy, you can see a detailed history and a map of the progress for your packages (amount of detail depends on carrier).

If you notice **ANY** problems with Package Buddy please send an **EMAIL**. Comments **DO NOT** allow us to communicate to you, which is vital. If you have a carrier or a feature you want added, just let us know and we'll see if it can be done.

There's also a new tablet upgrade which has all the features of the pro version and optimizes how information is shown for tablets (not necessary to run on tablets, just an extra feature).

Thanks everyone for your support!

Note: A package being visible on Amazon works slightly different. Check the carrier's site that they are using for actual tracking data.

Don't buy pro! I bought the pro version through the application and tried to sign up to have all my devices synced to their service. They don't send you a confirmation email and as of yet haven't responded to my email. Please just don't waste your money on a service that doesn't work like I did. If it worked it would easily be a five star application. The application it self without the scam pro version they sell you works fairly well which is why I gave it two stars. Developers, please fix this error and I will gladly change the review. I only buy pro versions of applications if I like the base application. In conclusion: good app if you will only use on one device, don't waste your money on pro though.

UI Overhaul Needed It works, but it really looks out of date. I've moved over to AfterShip because the UI is super clean and is closer to Material Design. It has pretty much the same functionality as well. If Package Buddy could make its UI more attractive, then I would continue to use it. You would think that's a small thing if all else works, but presentation and Android as a whole has a big impact. You want a unified look from your home screen down to settings through the OS. You have to keep up with design & function.

Pro upgrade doesn't work Like a few other reviewers I really like the functionality of this app and wanted to support the developers (and get the neat syncing features) but I haven't gotten a confirmation email from them. Also like the others I haven't gotten a reply from them to an email I sent about the problem. All in all a good package tracking app, just don't spend money on it unless you really dislike ads.

Used to work perfect No longer working for my USPS packages, but when I click go to website, the info shows up there. It's also taking over 30 seconds to refresh. What happened, this app used to be flawless... Update: Purolator doesn't work either.

Door-to-door Excellence OK--I'm a freak about this. When I buy something online, I want to know where it is. i want to know when it's in Palo Alto, I want to know when it's in Des Moines, I want to know when it's Out For Delivery and I want to know when it's waiting for me to open my front door and see it. Almost every online merchant gives you a tracking number and that's fine...but it's not enough. With Package Buddy, you paste in the tracking number and you get the whole enchilada. The delivery date, the means of delivery, constantly updated status reports, and the map. Oh, the map. When you click the map in this app, you can see a dotted line that shows you where in the world your package is and where it has traveled, from point-to-point. It's kind of like those Indiana Jones movies where Indy is flying over the ocean to some exotic country and they show a cartoon plane with that red line that stops on all the little islands. I like to pretend that Des Moines and Nashville are little islands and Package Buddy is flying the plane.

Works awesome! No issues at all even getting pro to work. Developer was easy to deal with and straight forward. Best tracking program I've used and won't use anything else. Haven't had any of the issues everyone else seems to be whining about... Signed up for cloud and worked perfect!

Nice universal parcel tracker! Great app! Consolidates parcel tracking from different couriers I use. However, app doesn't seem to be able to retrieve info from Purolator. The website view also isn't displaying properly (but that's more the company's fault for not rendering properly on smaller screens, not you guys.)

Chris Flanigan September 24, 2016

Getting worse Months and even weeks ago it would track shipments great. In the last few weeks it's been very slow to update, sometimes being days behind. Earlier this week it didn't even update and report the shipment existed until one of my shipments had actually been delivered. Uninstalled and replaced with an app that works much timelier!!

S Da April 2, 2016

Ancient - but still the best! Clearly this is no longer maintained; hasn't been updated for several years. But it's still great: always accurate and very very easy to use! I like auto detection of carrier, and ability to hide carriers. And you can't beat the free price! Great tool!!

Jun M. Wang November 6, 2014

Don't upgrade to Pro I made the mistake of not reading the reviews here before shelling out for the Pro upgrade though the In-App Purchase. As with others here, no email for the Pro upgrade was ever sent out to me, and attempts to contact the dev have been futile. The free app is ok for what it is, but there doesn't seem to be any updates from the dev in almost a year... so be cautious.

A Google User March 27, 2015

Receiving notifications w absolute NO updates!? WTF is up with this app!? Used to work so well now all I keep getting "updates/notifications" with absolutely no actual updated information! Very F**KING ANNOYING AND A WASTE OF TIME.

ad s July 24, 2014

Crap I paid for this for one reason. To use the cloud for multiple devices. I had a google virus and reformatted. Asked for my password via email as i forgot it. Never received it. Also reached out to developer, no response. DONT pay for it...crap app.

A Google User January 2, 2016

A great app abandoned by the developer. Used to be great.. I wanted to support the developer so I bought the pro version. But its pretty obvious that the developer has given up on this app. I think Google should start removing apps that haven't been updated and don't follow the new material design guidelines. I still use the app since I have a history with hundreds of packages that I wanna keep. But for a new user I would not recommend this app.

Christopher Courtney August 23, 2016

I've been a long time user of Package Buddy, but haven't really used in t he last year. I don't know what's changed, but it no longer reliably tracks packages, due to poor scraping of info. To the point that info doesn't show up until it's already arrived, the wrong info shows up, or it just never pulls info. If this was for obscure shippers, I'd understand. But this is for UPS, FedEx and USPS. When it works, it's fantastic. when it doesn't, it doesn't at all.

A Google User January 31, 2015

Awsome App Pros: Great app, works flawlessly & as described. Cons: None. One questipn: WHY ALL OF TH E SUDDEN, DO I KEEP GETTING ASKED FOR A COMFIRMATION CODE ??? It ask me to do a "Caota".

kerven janvier January 9, 2014

Working Better Now This was my first package tracking app. I really liked it until it stoped updating. That is the only thing that stops me from buying the pro version. It started working again. I am gonna see how it goes for a week or so, and if good, I will buy it. I ship a lot as am eBay seller.

March 27, 2017

Don't worry getting this one unless you only track with UPS, FedEx, or USPS. Support for this has long left. As others say, don't buy the pro version, you won't get anything anymore. Some tracking services don't pull information correctly anymore because they have probably changes something since 2013 (when this was last updated). Example: DHL.

Ed V. July 16, 2014

Don't bother... It hasn't even warranted a "blog post on the main development site since late 2013. No response to PRO support, multiple bugs and errors. Buy something else. Buy anything else. It's bound to better than this apparently abandoned product.

Kaitlen Besse September 18, 2016

Complete waste of money. Don't go pro. I upgraded to pro so it would automatically track packages (used to be free). All the settings are still greyed out even though it knows I have upgraded. Emailed the dev to no avail. Hasn't been updated since 2013. Basically flushed two bucks down the toilet.

Rene Vincent Torralba July 1, 2015

Bought the Pro version early on, and it was working quite nicely. Now it still works for the most part, just that there's a problem with clearing up packages marked as "Delivered". But all in all, I'm still getting package updates, for what it's worth. Could really use some more tuning up though.

Lis Manolis June 10, 2014

Going downhill This used to be a fantastic app. Since the last two updates, it has only created problems on my Samsung galaxy s3. Packages don't delete, new packages appear at the bottom of the list instead of at the top which always projected the delivery date. There was a logical progression and organization which is not the case anymore. Sometimes package lists don't even appear. I would rate this lower but have to consider it's previous greatness in my rating. Switching to shiprack.

Mohammad SM August 6, 2016

Do not buy! This app is outdated now look at the last update date! Most of its tracking are useless and not working any more. I used to love this app but it seem I need to find a new one.

December 29, 2013

Normally love it...but now it's not working. When I open the app, it's blank and then my phone freezes. Been going on for a while now. Bummer, cuz I usually love this app. It's a great way to see all my packages in the same place at the same time.

Partial Software December 29, 2013

Would you be able to email us so we can get more information on the problem? Thank you

Michael Greer November 30, 2016

Recently Quit Working Entirely First it was all sorts of inaccuracies, then it simply stopped working entirely. Don't waste your time or money on the Pro version! I'm uninstalling, even though I paid for it as Pro. What a frustrating mess.

Matthew Day May 23, 2015

Not Reliable The reason you use an app like this is for convenience. But it won't automatically track anymore so you have to manually track for yourself.. The ad box also still pops up, like it forgot that i have the pro version.

A Google User May 23, 2015

Best tracking app ever: UPDATE... Not anymore. As stated by many others; has been abandoned and barely works, if at all. No longer refreshes properly, utterly useless. I've moved on, as the Dev apparently has. Do yourself a favor and don't install anything this Dev has put out.

Jürgen Failenschmid May 30, 2015

License issue for Package Buddy Pro - Apps abandoned? Beware of the Package Buddy Pro version. I purchased a license 2/2014 and was only able to install the app on a second device with help of their support. When I try to install the Pro version on a new phone now, the Pro license does not show as associated with my account. Tried to contact the developer "Partial Software" twice but got no response after waiting several days. Google cannot help with licensing issues, only the app developer can. Looks like they abandoned this app and/or support for it.

Zack Corpier January 31, 2016

Excellent program! Has some flaws but hey its free The free version is great, since used I track all packages using it. Granted it has some flaws (refresh issues, map and few others) but show me a better one and I'll try it. Pro is OK but few improvements

Robert Merriman May 4, 2014

It worked until I upgraded to the paid version. After upgrading and registering online, it said wait for an email with further instructions. Almost a week later and still no email so I can't use the premium features that I paid for. The company also does not respond to emails to their customer support address. Wasted money.

Jim G December 9, 2013

Change DROID X2. I've had app since it first came out and I gave it 5 stars. Nothing has changed on my phone since then. Several recent updates have made it unusable on my phone unfortunately. DROID ULTRA. Since my last input I've purchased a new phone and I no longer have any issues.

Bob Trancho February 27, 2015

No longer very good EDIT FEB, 2015 - looks like this app has been abandoned by the developer. Crashes when trying to go to carrier website; often takes forever to load updates (if at all). Its a shame, this was once very good, now it's bug ridden.

A Google User August 20, 2016

Used to be Great software I've been using this app since 2011 and it was awesome. Unfortunately it seems that the latest update was in 2013 and major carriers won't work anymore. I've tried emailing them but no response. So sad...

Tony Shum August 1, 2014

Multiple tracking items corrupted This app used to be working fine until the past 2 updates. Many time 2 different tracking number description mirror with the first item. It is very annoying. Otherwise I would have give 5 stars.

Billy Masters July 11, 2015

Stopped working, developer stopped responding This app used to work well enough and the developer even helped me out with an issue but when it stopped working a around the first of the year, the developer failed to respond to several emails. I gave up and looked for alternatives and saw that there are much better options now.

Russell Craig February 7, 2016

Rubbish Purchased the pro version and it does not work at all. Used other free tracking apps and they all have no problem in providing tracking information whereas this app just informs me there is no information. Stay clear of this crap.

John Beres November 30, 2016

Parcels user converted. NO Amazon support... Update: Amazon has its own carrier and tracking. This sadly does NOT support that. Hope that changes. Used to be a Parcels can but it started having issues displaying delivery exceptions. This supports OnTrac and auto detects carriers. So far, I prefer this!

Max Handelsman January 3, 2017

ABANDONED BY THE DEVELOPERS! The free version works OK, but I paid for the Pro version and could not register it. I tried contacting the developers, but they never responded to any of my messages through various channels, and by that time Google said I was not eligible for a refund, so I had to initiate a chargeback. The Pro version will not give you any added value without a login, so avoid it. The free version works OK, but I would not trust it with any personal info at this point, since the devs are at best MIA, at worst scammers.

Joan Avilez January 22, 2014

Crashes a lot! Please fix every time I try to refresh it crashes and exits the app on my galaxy s4... I use to love this app not so much anymore please update and fix this bug

Katie Keith December 15, 2014

Used to love it... This app has been such a help add I get several packages each week and I need to know what's arriving when. I have used it on my last the phones as my preferred tracking app. That said, it has mixed up several of the packages I'm currently waiting on and giving me way incorrect tracking info which is bad business for me this time of year. I tried to report the error and the link took me to an expired QFC coupon. Hope this is back to normal soon, I use it every day!

A Google User February 1, 2017

Only the free work version works! Don't waste your money on the pro upgrade! Unfortunately, people are right, I paid the price for the pro upgrade so that I could sink and save all my packages and information and not only that did they take my money I was never sent confirmation email and but more importantly I never got an answer to my first email today I have sent a second email after that I will report them to Google Play! Don't waste your money on any upgrades!
