Donations

Dashboard widgets on your Mac are a reflection of your busy lives. Mac Dashboard widgets get you the information you want, now. Still, Mac widgets under Mountain Lion are now taking second fiddle to the Mac App Store. Even so, the widgets mentioned here are worth it. Now when you go to your Dashboard (by pressing function+f12 on Apple’s wireless keyboard), you can now click the widget, and hold that click while using the Dashboard shortcut once more. The widget you clicked on will now remain visible, even though the rest of the widgets disappear.

Much of our software is free of charge. However if you find it useful we do ask that you consider a donation. Your donation makes it possible for us to keep making great software. Click here to donate now!

If you have any questions, please see Delivery Status Widget for Mac Help.

Can’t wait for your packages to arrive? Don’t waste your time checking the site constantly, just open this all-in-one delivery tracker and enter your order number or tracking number.

The status will update automatically for you, and count down the days. It also works with Notification Center or Growl to let you know when your package status changes. Our syncing service keeps your Mac in sync with your iPhone or iPad.

Important note

macOS Catalina no longer supports Dashboard. We recommend switching to our full Deliveries for Mac app, which includes a Notification Center widget, a menu bar icon, and keyboard shortcuts for quick access.

Languages

Delivery Status is available in English, German (translated by Jennifer Brehm), Japanese (Justin McPeak and Nobtaka Nukui), French (Thierry Di Lenarda), Italian (Ivano Brignoli), Dutch (Tim Van Damme), Norwegian (Jonas Ensby), Danish (Tony Lorentzen and Christian Rasmussen), and Swedish (Christofer Karlsson).

Update history

New in version 6.3

Improved results for La Poste, Apple, and Amazon.
Improved HLG tracking number detection.
Updated for compatibility with future service updates.
Note: Mac OS X 10.7 or later is now required. Mac OS X 10.9.5 or later is strongly recommended, and required for some services.

New in version 6.2.9

Fixed an issue where certain Amazon orders could get stuck, preventing other deliveries from updating.
Fixed an issue decoding the characters æ and Æ in Amazon item names.

New in version 6.2.8

Tooltips are now disabled by default. See here for more information.
Updated for changes to La Poste, Posten Norway, OnTrac, and TNT.
Improved results for Apple and DHL.
Added support for future service updates.
Some other minor improvements.

New in version 6.2.7

Improved date detection for Amazon.de and Amazon.es.
Improved tracking number detection for Hermes.

New in version 6.2.6

Improved parsing of Italian dates.
Improved tracking number detection for Post.at and TNT Express Australia.
Improved compatibility with future service updates.

New in version 6.2.5

Improved support for Amazon. This isn’t perfect, due to the limitations of Dashboard, but it will improve sign in reliability in some cases.
Minor Junecloud Sync optimizations.
Some behind the scenes changes to improve future compatibility.
Forcing the widget to download a new service update (by clicking the version number) will no longer delete the installed update until the new one is downloaded and verified. So if anything goes wrong, you won’t be stuck with an older update.
You can now download or delete your Junecloud Sync data.
Improved compatibility with macOS Mojave beta.
Important: This version works with Mac OS X 10.6 or later, but 10.9 or later is strongly recommended, and required for some services. FedEx, UPS, and the U.S. Postal Service recently updated their browser requirements. As a result of that, Dashboard itself can no longer connect to their sites in older versions of Mac OS X. The only workaround is to update to Mac OS X 10.9 or later. Older versions of Mac OS X will show a message that the shipment can only be viewed online.

New in version 6.2.4

Updated for changes to Poste.it.
Improved tracking number detection for several services.
Some other minor bug fixes and improvements.
Note: due to changes in macOS, the downloaded widget will no longer show a custom icon on your desktop. That’s normal—you’ll see the correct icon after you install it.

New in version 6.2.3

Updated the Amazon sign in process. Instead of entering your password in the settings, you’ll now see a “sign in required” message when Amazon needs you to sign in again. When you add deliveries by order number, we recommend only adding deliveries from one Amazon account at a time.
Added an option to look up Amazon shipments using a tracking link, without having to sign in. Just paste the address of a “Track Package” page or email link, or use the “Add to Deliveries” extension, and Deliveries will show a new “Amazon – by tracking link” option. Tracking a shipment this way won’t show information about other shipments in the order, and some orders can’t be tracked this way.
Improved tracking number detection.
Improvements for Amazon.es, Amazon.fr, and Amazon.it.
La Poste France no longer specifies that it is only for letters.
Some minor translation updates.

New in version 6.2.2

Improvements for Amazon.de and Amazon.fr.
DHL UK is no longer a separate option. These deliveries will be updated to use DHL Express.
Adobe tracking no longer requires a user name and password.
Removed support for City Link.
“Other” shipments no longer check the web site for changes. This feature was confusing and rarely worked well. “Other” is now completely manual—it’s a way for you to keep track of shipments that can’t be tracked automatically.
Most error logging is now off by default. If you’re having a problem, you can turn it back on with this Terminal command: defaults write widget-com.junecloud.widget.deliverystatus loglevel -int 1; killall Dock;
Links to junecloud.com now use HTTPS.
Some other minor bug fixes and improvements.

New in version 6.2.1

Fixed a problem where an incorrect “64-bit required” message might show.
Added back 32-bit support, so now any Mac with OS X 10.6 or later is compatible.
Improved tracking number detection for UPS and U.S. Postal Service.
Double-clicking on a delivery will no longer open a map, since this happened accidentally far more often than it ever happened on purpose.

New in version 6.2

“Other” deliveries with a web site but no name or tracking number will show the domain name as a title.
Fixed an issue where deliveries synced in from Apple, DHL, or PostNL might behave strangely.
Improvements to the way passwords are looked up.
Services updates can now be downloaded from our CDN instead of the sync service. This should improve the time it takes to download them and reduce load on the sync server as well.
Posten Sweden is now PostNord.
Updated for changes to Poste Italiane.
Many minor bug fixes and performance improvements.
OS X 10.6 or later ~~and a 64-bit processor~~ is now required.

New in version 6.1.2

Now compatible with OS X Yosemite (10.10). (If you’re looking for a Today widget for Notification Center, that’s included in our Mac app.)
Improved parsing of dates on Amazon.es.

New in version 6.1.1

Deliveries that don’t have a date will update more often. Deliveries that have had an error for several days will update less often.
More frequent background updates for certain deliveries, especially those that don’t have a delivery date.
Fixed a bug where “Ship date unknown” would sometimes display instead of the current status.

New in version 6.1

Improved background notifications—updates are more frequent when they’re needed, less frequent when they’re not. We’ve also gotten rid of some unnecessary notifications.
“Delivered” notifications now start with a checkmark to make them immediately obvious.
Added support for Amazon.in.
Fixed a problem where “last updated” sorting didn’t work right with some deliveries.
Apple orders can no longer be looked up by zip code, so the interface has been updated to reflect this.
Manually refreshing now only excludes deliveries that were updated in the last 5 minutes (rather than 10).
Updated translations with the help of our wonderful translators.
Subtle visual refinements.

New in version 6.0

A new look: Updated design to match Delivery Status 5 for iOS.
More sorting options: You can now sort by last updated in addition to delivery date or manually.
Now supports OS X Mavericks (10.9).
Added support for Chronopost.
Improved efficiency. For example, manually refreshing will skip deliveries that were just updated, and deliveries that haven’t changed in a while will update less often.
If you edit an “other” delivery and add a tracking number, Delivery Status will now try to guess which service it is.
Temporary “not found” errors are now ignored, since this usually just means the tracking service is unavailable.
When a countdown is over 99 days, it will now display in months.
Deals better with time zone changes.
Improved handling of connection timeouts.
If you check the “donated” box, the “please donate” messages now disappear immediately.
Experimental support for Status Board from Panic. Setting this up requires some technical knowledge—see here for instructions.
Many other improvements and optimizations.

New in version 5.9.2

Fixed some quirks when the web site is removed from an Other delivery.
Improved update intervals. This should be more efficient without being noticeable.

New in version 5.9.1

Improved sign in for Amazon and Google accounts that require verification.
“Sort by date” improvements.
The “you do not have any deliveries” message is now less obtrusive.
Fixed an error with Growl notifications when a new version is available.

Removed ASIHTTPRequest and replaced it with simpler, custom code. This decreases memory usage and improves stability.
Improved validation of service definition updates.
The OS version is now included when syncing, to help us improve the service.
Many other little things we hope you’ll appreciate if you notice them.

Bug fixes

Service definition updates will work more reliably—you no longer need to press ⌘R after an update.
Fixed a bug where “Other” deliveries with an invalid date (like September 31st) would not sync correctly. An adjusted date (like October 1st) would appear in the widget, but the date would be missing on iOS. The adjusted date now syncs as expected.
Fixed some localization problems with dates in French.
Fixed a bug where a delivery that was deleted and then re-added via sync might appear blank.

New features

Added support for DHL UK (Domestic Express) and Post.at (Austria).
There’s a new Junecloud sync site at junecloud.com/sync
The status of each delivery is now cached, like it is in Delivery Status touch. In short this makes Delivery Status faster and more reliable, as well as more useful when you don’t have an internet connection.
Your sync password is now entered automatically if it’s saved in your keychain.
Editing the password for a delivery will now immediately update any other deliveries that use that password.
New Lion-style scrollbar.

Improved mapping for some locations.
Syncs more often when Dashboard is active.
Improved error handling for services like Amazon and Apple where information is gathered from multiple sources. If the page with detailed tracking information doesn’t load, it’s now treated as a “couldn’t connect” error. This should cut down greatly on errant notifications.

Fixes a bug where very long push notifications would not go through.
Fixes a problem with Safari 5 installed where pressing Return or Enter while editing a delivery would do nothing.

Widgets are small mini-applications designed to perform tasks that we otherwise perform by visiting web pages. For instance, instead of opening Safari and going to a weather website, you can access the weather-widget with a single click of your mouse.

Widgets are not viewed the same way as regular applications. Instead, they are shown in Dashboard. When opening Dashboard, your screen fades a bit and the widgets zoom in across the screen.

Open Dashboard

In order to open Dashboard, just click it’s icon in the dock.

When you do so, Dashboard and the widgets will appear.

The widgets

Widget For Dashboard Mac Os 10.13

What they are

Widgets are small applications used to perform smaller tasks or show data. Since they are programmed the same way as websites are it is easy for web developers to create widgets that display information from their websites.

Show/hide widgets

If you look at the lower left corner of Dashboard, you will see a plus button. If you click it, a bar containing all installed widgets will appear. From this bar, just drag the applications that you wish to use onto the Dashboard space.

If you wish to hide a widget, hold down the alt key and put the cursor over the widget. A button looking like a cross will appear in the widget’s upper left corner. Click it and the widget disappears. If you wish to use it again, just click the plus button in the lower left corner again.

Changing widget settings

Most widgets have some settings. When you put the cursor over a widget, a small i-symbol will appear somewhere on the widget (usually the lower right corner). Click this and the widget will flip over and settings will appear.

Close Dashboard

If you wish to close Dashboard, press the esc button or click the desktop but not on a widget. The widgets will disappear and the desktop will be as bright as always.

Download more widgets!

There are many great places for downloading new widgets. Here are some of them:

Install downloaded widgets

It’s silly really. Just click the download button at a web page that offers a widget. When the widget is downloaded, your Mac will simply ask you if you wish to install the widget or not.

Uninstall the widget

If you wish to uninstall a widget, open another widget called “Widgets”. From that one, you can delete others by pressing the minus next to their name.
