I've learned of a lot of great apps over the years on this forum. You guys have convinced me to completely avoid this "deliveries" app

I've been using this app for a long time now and it is a fantastic app. Just because a few people have poor reading comprehension doesn't mean that there's anything wrong with it.
 
I'm not bothering with the deliveries app until I see movement on Apple's end that they are preparing to ship it. I can't imagine that app is going to know any certain information before Apple updates our specific orders & accounts.
 
Those using the Deliveries app need to look at the tweet from Junecloud. They are having problems with Apple orders updating and are working on fixing the problem...

Not to labor the point but the tweet from Junecloud mentions they are looking to fix the date showing as 'unknown'.

Anything to say they're looking at June 8th date issue?

Not concerned given Apple site hasn't changed though.

The only issue I have with the deliveries app is that my power adaptor that I can see will be delivered tomorrow from Apple, says "Delivery date unknown". It lists its location, has a tracking number, yet doesn't know when it will be delivered. UPS even gives me a delivery time window. While the app is not helpful in this order, but have used with good results in the past. Hope it does better for my watch.
 
Clarification

Best bets and what I have used in the past:

1. Check UPS & FedEX and select Track by Reference Number.

DO NOT USE your Order number as your reference as it is inaccurate with the carriers. Instead use your phone number (that is used on your order), Zip Code and Destination Country. Once your item has been assigned a shipping tag it will show, if nothing shows then UPS and FedEX will not find anything.

2. Check order status via apple - just remember that apple order status lags and option #1 above will almost always show that your product shipped about 4-6 hours before it is reflected via apple.

Hey! How do i do this? what is the ship date that i have to select? also do i need to enter an 'account number'? or will this be it? finally what is the format for the phone number? Thanks!!! Super excited!
 
"Only Apple" would be so cruel as to ship out the extra charging cables and leave everyone staring at them and imagining the watch connected to it hahaha ;) I guess Apple likes to keep us on our toes :p
 
Interestingly, when i placed my order at 5.01PM on the 10th, i got the confirmation email immediately and my card had a $579 charge placed on hold. (Showed as pending on my account) That charge dropped off this morning. I wonder if that means they're preparing to charge the full amount today just before shipping them out.

Sydney, AU

I'm in Syd. Got my order in at 5.03pm. But, I didn't get any hold charge on my cc...

Hey mate, also in Syd, I'm Commbank, didn't get a hold so called apple and they re-ran my card then i got the hold. Maybe call them and ask them to check. My first hold attempt timed out according to apple. They assured me everything is good now, and I have a $1 hold still active.
 
Hold Charge added today

I order mine on the App Store app at 9:01PM (Hawaii) and received order confirmation 45 seconds later and I received a $1.00 hold charge on my credit card today. Must be getting them ready to fly !

Hey! I'm in the islands as well. My card hold fell off on Friday but I'm not too worried about it. Hoping that we still have a chance of getting them on Friday since we live way out here...

Read the thread, please. It was proven to be just a glitch, nothing more.
 
For the iP6 a lot of the orders only changed to preparing/shipped on the Wednesday and were delivered on the Friday. I wouldn't stress too much if it isn't done today.
 
By now I think it's either the launch stock is already in the designation country or we are not going to have it by Friday.

I don't think we are there yet, can still ship from China Wed an get to everyone on Friday, but we are getting close with no preparing to ship yet.

Cheers. I'm NAB. Scheisse really hope I am not going to get a message telling me the order has failed...
