Mine is in Louisville but still preparing to ship on Apple. Very excited about this launch. I love getting new toys!!
When you’re looking at this, what tracking number are you using? I have UPS My Choice and the app, but I do not see a detailed list like this. I’m not asking for your tracking number (just to be clear lol), I just wanna know where you find your own.
 
How are y'all finding your tracking # before it ships from Apple? i forgot there was a trick, can someone enlighten me?

Edit: Nevermind, found it on UPS My Choice. at least it shows one of my two phones I ordered

Tracking number shows fully (complete #) when you use the UPS My Choice app or webpage.

I use both during the day.

Have you found yours using the reference # ?

Here's my list of reference numbers related to my incoming iPhone using my Mac browser:

Placed the order at 5:02 AM on 09/13 and my Desert Titanium 16Pro is still in the `Preparing to Ship` stage. UPS MyChoice shows nothing addressed to me. I was able to lookup using Track By Reference on UPS site; but that only shows the partial tracking number.

Is there a way I can see the full tracking number?

This is exactly what happens to me! I see a bunch of X’s and then the last four digits in the tracking number. Still says I’m good for Sept. 20th though. That’s as much info as it gives.

You can call UPS and make up some weird excuse and they can give it to you. Like, I am having trouble with the tracking and can only see the last four even when it says its showing the full number, etc etc. Think of something stupid. 9 times out of 10, they will give you the full number. Or give them a random number with the correct last four and say the shipper gave you the incorrect number you think.
 
Ordered through Verizon, they are currently in Pennsylvania! It's Tuesday morning, I could drive there and back and have them by tonight! Why do I have to wait until Friday?!?!?!
 
I ****ed up. I ordered shipping because my Apple Store pick-up hours were pushing to 3-5 PM launch day, thinking I could do a hold for pickup at a UPS hub.

Turns out -- we can't do that anymore and I never knew. And UPS always delivers after 6ish PM in my area. I think an option was to contact apple to redirect the package. I might do that and have it ship to a business address for earlier delivery.

You cant. Just have to call to have it held.

Mine is doing the exact same. I can find it by reference number but even using my choice app nothing shows up in there.

Yeah, I chatted with UPS through IG and got them to give me the tracking number.
Provide them with the following:

Shipment Reference: (Web Order Number)
Destination Country: United States
Destination ZIP/Postal Code: (00000)

Got this: (I sent them what I saw)
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx1111
On the Way
Estimated delivery: Friday, September 20 by 7:00 P.M.

I also provided my full name, full address, etc.
