Download Delivery Status Widget for Mac 6.0 beta 2
A Mac with an Intel processor and OS X 10.5.8 or later is required.
New in beta 2:
- A new look: Updated design to match Delivery Status 5 for iOS.
- More sorting options: You can now sort by last updated in addition to delivery date or manually.
- Added support for Chronopost.
- When a countdown is over 99 days, it will now display in months.
- Deals better with time zone changes.
- If you check the “donated” box, the “please donate” messages now disappear immediately.
New in beta 1:
- Support for Status Board from Panic. Setting this up requires some technical knowledge—see here for instructions.
- Improved efficiency. For example, manually refreshing will skip deliveries that were just updated, and deliveries that haven’t changed in a while will update less often.
- Mapping improvements for some services like Amazon and Apple.
- Improved handling of connection timeouts.
- If you edit an “other” delivery and add a tracking number, Delivery Status will now try to guess which service it is.
- Temporary “not found” errors are now ignored, since this usually just means the tracking service is unavailable.
- No longer counts down to a shipping date unless it’s a store like Apple or Amazon.
- Now supports OS X Mavericks (10.9).

Does the Delivery Status Widget for Mac support iCloud synchronisation as the iOS version does?

Yes, I'm wondering the same thing…

I am wondering this as well

I'm not an employee of June Cloud, but from my understanding of iCloud, the widget would need to be distributed through the Mac App Store to support iCloud sync. Additionally, I'm pretty sure you can't distribute a widget through the Mac App Store; it's unlikely we'll see the widget with iCloud sync in the future. It's just the way it is when playing by Apple's rules. :(

Although I used to love the Delivery Status widget, I've outgrown widgets and no longer use the Dashboard in OS X. That being said, if iCloud sync for OS X means a new Delivery Status application distributed through the Mac App Store, then I'm all for it. I would gladly pay for this.

Josh is correct. Eventually we will have a full Mac app that includes iCloud support, though it's a ways off still. (Lately iOS 7 updates have kept us very busy.)

This is a great widget, I'd like to say thanks. And also, I wish Spanish Postal Service would be added in the future. I have to check it in correos.esCorreos website so I use “Other” type of shipping and link it to their web.
Cheers!

I'd be sad to see this become an app instead of a widget. The MAS has far too many simple small single window apps that would better be implimented as widgets. I love being able to fly utilities like Delivery Status and Weather in and out with a single key (I always override the useless Launchpad key w/ Dashboard).

I also would be interested in a Mac app, although I agree with others who like the handiness of the dashboard widget. iCloud sync would be the simplest setup option on Mac as it is on iOS and across devices but I understand the App store issue for a dashboard widget.
With Safari push notifications you could offer existing dashboard users a simple method to just use the website and make it a clipped widget - 'Open in Dashboard' under File menu in Safari. This would allow a user to keep it in their dashboard which I admit is not as cool as the current scenario but works. In addition they could get push notifications to their Mac when the status changes which is a plus.
Then convert the functionality of the dashboard widget to an app so it supports iCloud and stick it in the app store for a few bucks or so. I'd pay up to $5 but I ship/receive a lot of things. An app that had the same easy interface and took advantage of the notification center would be great.
