Shopping online is convenient, but it is difficult to keep track of orders when making multiple purchases from different online stores. If you make several purchases on different sites, then there may be several delivery services: Russian Post, Fedex and DHL.
Each of them provides a tracking number, but their websites are difficult to use, especially on a phone. Fortunately, there are many ways to get the information you need using your smartphone. Instead of having to manually check delivery services several times, you can download one application that will do it automatically.
17Track
Although the name may seem unusual, it is a great app. There is support for more than 500 delivery companies, as well as updating the status of all parcels at the click of a button. If you register for the service, all entered information will be saved and you will not need to enter it again.
A customizable widget allows you to see all available information about parcels directly on the main screen of your smartphone. This application is truly global, as it supports more than 30 languages, including Russian. Every time the status of a package changes, 17Track instantly sends a push notification and an email.
Available for Android and iPhone.
How to monitor the price on Aliexpress
Looking through product catalogs every day, studying promotions and discounts on Aliexpress, you can notice that yesterday a particular product was cheaper than today and vice versa. Of course, it’s always better to buy cheaper, but how can you keep track of such price dynamics without visiting Alik’s website every day and without spending a lot of time on it. For such savings, it is worth knowing how to monitor the price on the website or in the application. There are several ways to do this, among them we note the main ones:
— independent monitoring. Price dynamics are monitored, as they say manually, by visiting the site or application every day. To simplify this procedure, you need to mark the product as favorites once or add it to your cart. By frequently looking into your shopping cart, you can track price changes over a period of time (week, month).
— customer reviews. This is the least effective way to track prices, since few people write down the cost of the item at which a particular item was purchased. but nevertheless, sometimes detailed reports also contain a price classification of the product, especially if the product is very popular and the quantity of goods sold is quite large.
— the most effective way to “monitor the price” is to install special additional applications or extensions of the browser you are using. To do this, you need to download and install such applications; they will help you easily and quickly track price dynamics over several months.
ParcelTrack
ParcelTrack is a simple batch tracker with several very useful features, such as automatic tracking number detection from your clipboard and a unique email address for receiving mail. Using your work email, you can forward an email with a shipping notification to this address - ParcelTrack will automatically extract the tracking number from it and begin tracking.
If you click on any of the packages being tracked, you will be shown a detailed list of all status updates along with a map view of the history and current location. ParcelTrack is free to use. However, to unlock features like push notifications, cross-platform syncing, barcode scanner, and more, you need to do a one-time unlock for $3.

Deliveries
Deliveries is one of the most used apps during the holidays, when there are dozens of boxes coming from all over the world. If you already have a tracking number on your iPhone or iPad's clipboard, it will automatically appear in the add package to tracking form. There are push notifications, as well as a widget for quickly monitoring packages on the way.
While it may not seem like a big deal, Deliveries color codes deliveries based on the carrier brand. You can instantly understand what is coming from China Post, UPS or another carrier. By the way, more than 300 postal services are supported, including Russian ones: Russian Post, EMC, Boxberry, CDEK, Business Lines and many others.

Parcel
The Parcel app operates on a freemium business model where everything is free, but you have to pay $2 per year to track more than 3 parcels at once and also remove ads.
If you receive an email from the seller that your package has been shipped and includes a tracking number, Parcel will automatically add it for tracking. Next to each parcel there will be a special icon with which you can quickly find out its status (“in transit” or “delivered”).
You can also manually enter tracking numbers, which will be automatically filled in if you already have a tracking number on your clipboard. The free version only tracks three packages at a time, which is pretty useless during the holidays. But if you don't order a lot of things at once, Parcel works just fine, even with its limitations.
Available for iPhone and macOS only
How long does it take to order from Aliexpress?
Even at the stage of placing an order, you can choose the delivery option that suits you - the website immediately indicates the approximate time it will take to send the goods. For example, for SF Express it is about 2-3 weeks. If you choose to send via China Post with further transfer of the parcel to the local postal service, you will have to wait at least a month for the parcel. At the same time, tracking of Aliexpress parcels by track and parcel number will have to be carried out either on the websites of different services, or on one universal resource.
The fastest delivery methods are offered by international logistics companies such as EMS, DHL or TNT - in 1.5-2 weeks the package will be with you. The situation is similar with Aliexpress Premium Shipping, tracking of which is also available on our website.

Whether you're shipping a package or about to receive one, AfterShip Package Tracker can track each one until delivery. All you need to do is add the tracking number and courier service name.
Available for Android and iPhone.
How long is a parcel from Aliexpress stored at the post office?
The parcel is stored at the post office for 15 days (the day of delivery is not taken into account), and then it is sent to the seller. Therefore, it is very important to track mail from Ali - postmen do not always deliver notifications on time.
If you understand that you will not be able to pick up the parcel during this time, you must submit an application to extend the storage period for the parcel. It must be submitted exactly at the post office where your parcel will arrive. The application shall indicate passport details. If you are unable to submit an application yourself, a trusted person can do so.
To avoid problems associated with parcel delivery, you must independently track postal items from Aliexpress. On our website you can do this for free. The service is especially beneficial for those who place orders in different online stores and use the services of several delivery services - there is no longer a need to visit dozens of websites of different companies, all parcels can be tracked on Posylka.net.
Arrive
Arrive is a very beautifully designed app for tracking packages on iPhone. For Gmail users, the best way to get started is to log into the Arrive app through your email account. When you log in, Arrive will automatically see active tracking numbers from your email.
If you'd rather not give Arrive access to your email history, you can simply copy and paste your tracking numbers into the app and it will do the rest. 400 delivery services are supported. Real-time map updates will show the current status of the package, as well as the estimated time of arrival.

Website, Android

There is support for several hundred delivery services from all over the world. A paid version is available that unlocks additional features of the program, but if you order little and rarely, then the basic application will suffice.

Slice
Slice is an entire shopping ecosystem. It tracks packages, reports price drops, and displays product reviews. Synchronization with email is supported for automatic retrieval of track numbers. When you connect to your email account, the app will find your entire purchase history, not just current ones. It's amazing to see things you bought years ago (I don't even remember some).
Sounds great in theory, but it can be dangerous to give a company access to your email even though they have a clear privacy policy. There is OAuth support for Gmail, but with iCloud you'll have to tell them your password. If keeping track of what you've spent money on is important to you and you keep electronic receipts, try Slice.
Available for Android and iPhone.
Ali Tools
AliTools is a plugin that tracks price dynamics on Aliexpress and checks the reliability of the seller based on reviews and internal ratings. It also finds and gives you reviews of products you were interested in.
The most useful thing in AliTools is the Favorites folder. You add products to your Favorites, and Ali Tools will monitor their prices: as soon as the price drops, you will receive a notification.
The application works if the button in the right corner of the screen is activated. Go to the page of the product you are interested in and see a black window in the lower left corner, where you can see the seller’s rating, the price dynamics of the product and a video review of it (if it exists).
Alytus is available for iOS and Android and most browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Yandex. You can download alituls on the Alitrust platform. On the same site you can see selections and reviews of products, consult with other buyers, track your parcel and learn various tricks about shopping on Aliexpress.
But Alitools also has disadvantages. Users claim that the extension takes away their cashback, although nothing like this was specified in the terms and conditions. Maybe with the plugin you will find the product cheaper, but there is a chance that your cashback will be taken away. Another problem is that, judging by the reviews, AliTools primarily displays sellers with high prices and hides products with lower prices. So you can still check the seller with it, but before purchasing it is better to remove the extension.
Deliveries Package Tracker
Deliveries Package Tracker, which should not be confused with Deliveries for iOS, supports dozens of delivery services and push notifications. Like its iPhone counterpart, Deliveries on Android is a class-leading package tracking app. It copies the same capabilities as a similar application on the iPhone.
There are widgets that, without launching the application, can show where your package is now, as well as the approximate delivery date. Additional package tracking via Google Maps is as cool as it is functional: you can see where the package is currently and where it will be tomorrow. With each delivery status update, a push notification is sent.
Available for Android only.
