Who ParcelsApp is for
- Fits if you order from China-based marketplaces and parcels change carriers

Who ParcelsApp is not for
- Skip it if you want a mobile app, since only the website is listed

What you could not

What this rests on. ParcelsApp’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
