节俭的在线(Frugal online)购物有时涉及同时从多个不同的在线零售商处购买。虽然这对您的银行账户(bank account)来说意义重大，但跟踪起来并不容易。
跟踪您的包裹不仅对于知道何时回家和取货很重要，而且它还可以帮助您跟踪未按预期交付的物品。(t deliver)如果你像我一样是一个连续的互联网购物者(internet shopper)，你有时甚至会忘记你已经进行了特定的购买。如果它永远不会交付，那就不好了——尤其是如果它从未出现在你的脑海中。
虽然有许多简单的方法可以跟踪单个跟踪号(tracking number)，但多个包裹跟踪(package tracking)可能很困难。iOS 和 Android(iOS and Android)上有一些应用程序可以让这更容易，但谁愿意整天坐在手机上查看发货更新？
在本文中，让我们讨论通过桌面或网络一次处理多个包裹跟踪号的最佳方法。
Packagetrackr是我们挑选的用于保存和跟踪多个包裹跟踪号码的最佳网络工具。这是我在最近的黑色星期五和圣诞节购物季(Black Friday and Christmas shopping season)亲自使用的一个工具，它为我节省了大量的时间和头痛(time and headaches)。
您要做的第一件事是注册(sign up)一个Packagetrackr 帐户(Packagetrackr account)。它完全免费，甚至支持通过关联您的Google 帐户(Google account)进行注册。
注册后，您可以安全可靠地存储所有已保存的包裹跟踪号，以便您以后可以返回查看其状态。创建帐户后，您将被带到您的收件箱。
在这里，您将看到所有最近跟踪的包裹的列表。由于您刚刚注册了一个新帐户，因此该页面应该是空的。但是，让我们看看添加跟踪号后该页面的外观。
跟踪包裹(Tracking a Package)
如果您手头有包裹跟踪号，请将其复制并粘贴(copy and paste)到此页面顶部的大字段中，然后单击Track it!按钮。Packagetrackr支持USPS、UPS、FedEx、DHL、China Post、China EMS和Canada Post跟踪号，因此请确保您使用的跟踪号由这些服务之一处理。
添加您的第一个包裹跟踪号时，您甚至不必选择与其对应的运输服务。Packagetrackr将自动检测到这一点或将其缩小到多个选项供您选择。如上所示，确定我输入的运单号属于UPS。
接下来，只需单击正在处理您的包裹的运输服务(shipping service)上方的包裹跟踪号。这将带您进入显示其运输状态的页面，并允许您配置(shipping status)Packagetrackr将如何跟踪它。
在上面的示例中，您可以看到我添加了一个几周前已经交付的包裹。但是，如果您尝试跟踪当前正在运送的包裹，其状态将相应显示。
Packagetrackr跟踪的五种不同状态是Information Received、At Pickup、In Transit、Out for Delivery和Delivered。每个状态更改(status change)都可以选择通过电子邮件向您发送更新，这样您就可以立即知道运输过程(shipping process)中何时发生向前移动。在此页面的下方，您甚至可以找到跟踪地图(tracking map)和完整的交付进度日志(delivery progress log)。
要跟踪您的包裹，您需要为其命名。您可以通过单击当前页面顶部的（编辑）按钮来执行此操作。((edit))
在弹出的屏幕上，您可以设置标题、备注、目的地时区(destination timezone)，甚至可以选择将您的包裹标记为外发。满意后，单击“保存包(Save Package)”按钮。
查看您跟踪的包裹(Viewing Your Tracked Packages)
成功添加您的第一个包裹后，返回您的收件箱，您会看到它现在已列出并被跟踪。
您可以在此页面上跟踪几十个包裹，就像我跟踪上面显示的一样。然后，您只需单击🔄按钮即可获取所有包裹的最新跟踪信息(tracking information)。这也可以选择性地以定时间隔自动发生。
完成对包裹的跟踪后，您可以将其发送到存档(Archive)以进行保留或将其发送到垃圾箱以进行删除。您可以将包裹一起查看为完整列表，也可以使用此表顶部的In Transit、Out for Delivery、Delivered、Pending或Exception按钮对它们进行相应过滤。(Exception)
调整您的设置(Tweaking Your Settings)
使用Packagetrackr(Packagetrackr)时要注意的最后一条但重要的建议是您应该检查您的Preferences和Notifications设置。
虽然这两个页面都配置为默认为您提供最多数量的电子邮件更新，但您可能希望根据自己的喜好减少它们。在这些页面上，您可以完全关闭电子邮件通知、禁用自动货件状态更新或禁用自动存档。
考虑到所有允许您跟踪包裹的移动应用程序，有一个完全跨平台的基于 Web 的解决方案真是太好了。Packagetrackr适用于任何设备，完全免费，可让您通过简单直观的 UI 跟踪数十个活跃的货物。你还能想要什么？

How to Track Multiple Package Tracking Numbers At Once
Frugаl online shopping sometimes involves making purchases from multiple different online retailers all at once. While that can mean great things for your bank account, it’s not so easy to keep track of.
Tracking your packages is not only important for knowing when to be home and collect your items, but it can also help you track down items that don’t deliver as expected. If you’re a serial internet shopper like I am, you may sometimes even forget that you’ve made a particular purchase. If it never delivers, that’s not good—especially if it never crosses your mind.
While there are many simple ways to keep track of a single tracking number, multiple package tracking can be difficult. There are a few apps on iOS and Android that make this easier, but who wants to sit around on their phone all day checking for shipping updates?
In this article, let’s go over the best way to handle multiple package tracking numbers at once by desktop or through the web.
Packagetrackr is our pick for the best web-based tool for saving and following multiple package tracking numbers. This is a tool that I personally used over the recent Black Friday and Christmas shopping season, and it saved me an immeasurable amount of time and headaches.
The first thing you’ll want to do is sign up for a Packagetrackr account. It’s completely free and even supports signing up by linking your Google account.
Signing up will allow you to store all of your saved package tracking numbers safely and securely so that you can come back to them to check their statuses at a later date. After creating an account, you’ll be taken to your inbox.
Here is where you’ll see a list of all your recently tracked packages. As you’ve just signed up for a new account, this page should be empty. However, let’s check out how this page looks once we add a tracking number.
Tracking a Package
If you have a package tracking number on hand, copy and paste it into the large field at the top of this page and click the Track it! button. Packagetrackr supports USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL, China Post, China EMS, and Canada Post tracking numbers, so be sure the tracking number you use is being handled by one of these services.
When adding your first package tracking number, you don’t even have to select which shipping service corresponds to it. Packagetrackr will automatically detect this or narrow it down to multiple options for you to choose from. As you can see above, it’s determined that the tracking number I entered belongs to UPS.
Next, simply click on the package tracking number above the shipping service that your package is being handled by. This will take you to a page that shows its shipping status and allows you to configure how it will be tracked by Packagetrackr.
In the example above, you can see that I’ve added a package that has already been delivered some weeks ago. However, if you’re trying to track a package currently shipping, its status will show accordingly.
The five different statuses tracked by Packagetrackr are Information Received, At Pickup, In Transit, Out for Delivery, and Delivered. Each status change can optionally send you an update via email, so you’ll know immediately when forward movement is occurring in the shipping process. Further down this page, you can even find a tracking map and a full delivery progress log.
To track your package, you’ll need to give it a name. You can do so by clicking the (edit) button towards the top of the current page.
On the screen that pops up, you can set a title, note, destination timezone, and even optionally mark your package as outgoing. Once satisfied, click the Save Package button.
Viewing Your Tracked Packages
After successfully adding your first package, head back to your inbox and you’ll see that it’s now listed and being tracked.
You can track dozens of packages on this page in the same way that I’m tracking the one shown above. Then, all you have to do is click the 🔄 button to get the latest tracking information for all of your packages. This can optionally occur automatically at a timed interval, too.
When you’re done tracking a package, you can either send it to your Archive for keeping or your Trash for removal. You can view your packages together as a full list or you can use the In Transit, Out for Delivery, Delivered, Pending, or Exception buttons across the top of this table to filter them accordingly.
Tweaking Your Settings
One final but important piece of advice to note when using Packagetrackr is that you should check out your Preferences and Notifications settings.
While both of these pages are configured to give you the most number of email updates by default, you may want to lessen them to your liking. On these pages, you can turn off email notifications altogether, disable automated shipment status updates, or disable automatic archiving.
Considering all of the mobile apps that allow you to track your packages, it’s great that there’s a web-based solution that is totally cross-platform. Packagetrackr works on any device, is completely free, and lets you track dozens of active shipments through a simple and intuitive UI. What more could you want?
