Tracksy

Inspiration

I use email-based shipment tracking often, but it always felt slow, cluttered, and limited—especially on mobile. With iOS 26 integrating tracking into Wallet, I realized there’s room for a tool built for power users: people who buy, sell, or ship frequently and need more than just basic updates.

I wanted something elegant, private, and fast.

What it does

Tracksy is a native iOS app that tracks all your online shipments in one clean interface. It supports 1000+ couriers, custom titles, rich status updates, and smart filters like “Active” and “Delivered.” Users can upgrade to Tracksy Pro, unlocking background refresh, unlimited active shipments, and more—powered seamlessly by RevenueCat.

How I built it

• Frontend: Swift + SwiftUI for a fully native experience
  
• State & Persistence: SwiftData
  
• Backend: FastAPI on Render, proxying 3rd-party courier APIs
  
• Subscriptions: RevenueCat powers Pro entitlements with a monthly IAP
  

Challenges

• Minimizing API costs without compromising UX
• Designing a custom UI that stands out yet feels native

What’s next

• Native Apple Watch app for quick glances and delivery status on the wrist
  
• macOS version with a unified timeline and desktop notifications
  

Tracksy isn’t just a tracker—it’s a calm, focused workspace for keeping your deliveries under control.
