Universal Parcel Tracking

The parcel tracking feature is great, but having to select the courier can be difficult when there are multiple options

Recently for a DHL UK parcel I had to select 6 different version of DHL from the dropdown before getting the right one to pull the details though.

There is a universal parcel tracking website that offers an API,

https://parcelsapp.com/en/tracking
on that, you just enter the tracking number and it pulls through the courier, something similar to that would be great.

    Tested a few times now and it works nicely!

    We autodetect when you click the little magnifying glass:

      Kind of embarrassing but I never used the looking glass until one of my coworkers saw me scrolling the carrier list looking for the right one to select and told me to click it to automatically detect the right carrier.

      It worked a treat like Mikel mentioned and it hasn't failed me since, but I had no idea that existed until they showed me lol. Seeing this posted here makes me think it needs to be called out more somehow but maybe I'm just slow. 🤪

    That Parcel app also does this automatically. I’m sure there are limitations, but it would be nice to have some kind of auto-detection of carriers.
