I've been looking for a decent tracking app for my laptop for quite some time now, never liked any of the ones i found. Love this one! So thank you for posting.
It is nice, although I will say it just notified me my phone departed Korea even though that happened hours ago and I had even already manually refreshed it in the app and saw the change (also hours ago).
When i clicked on the "track shipments" in the email, it sent me to the UPS site. There was a big arrow that had "CONTINUE" to set up alerts...from there, I was able to get into My Choice and specify that I wanted it held on Will Call.
My 32GB AT&T gold iPhone ordered through Premier just shipped and is arriving tomorrow! Original delivery frame was 10/21-10/31.
I don't mind about notifications, I have 5-10 packages coming this week, and to manually search on USPS/UPS was becoming really annoying. Nice to have just a little app that I can get to with a swipe on the trackpad. Shame that the iPhone version is 5$
So excited I don't have to wait until the beginning of the month.Anyone getting it sooner?
I was one of the 'lucky' few that got a 64GB Silver on the morning of launch ('lucky' in quotes because my son and I were first in line at our local Apple store, getting in line around 2:30 pm Thursday). Turns out our store only had one 64GB silver and one 64GB gold -- those both went home to my wife and I.
In any event, you'll love it. The silver 5S is a thing of beauty!
I think I'm going to have UPS hold at the facilty and not even put it on the truck. The UPS warehouse is around the corner from my job. I can just pick it up when I get off and go run my errands. Otherwise I may miss delivery if they come before 1600 and I may not be able to get it until Friday.
I literally called them and asked them about the next day option people were posting screen shots on these forms. The representative kindly explained that I got the fastest shipping possible 2-3 business days "expedited" and that he would refund me my $10 expedited shipping fee for my inconvenience. I don't want $10....I want my iPhone before I leave on a trip on the 28th!
EDIT: that might mean my 32G gold verizon iphone might be coming straight from China. :/

Great news! I had the silver 5 and loved it. I think the ring around the home button gives it that extra "pop."
Me too. I won't make it home in time. My guy won't leave it with a signature release form.
I bought mine yesterday at 8:00pm and have a shipping estimate of just "October"... AT&T Space Grey 16GB iPhone 5s.
Anyone have an idea of when us late order people might get their phones? I ordered directly from Apple.

Just bought a space grey 32 gb at a t mobile store for $199 and $22*24 months.
PS: For insurance, which is the better route to go-the $10 per month from T-mo with $179 copay or applecare plus? Thanks.
You'll likely get it sooner or later. It seems everyone is being conservative with their shipping estimates. Better to under-promise and and over-deliver.
