Google has solved your problem of tracking the package you have ordered easily with the new Gmail feature.
To make it easier, Google does not even require you to open the email when the package arrives.
Package Status, Default
The announcement came a little bit ahead of the holiday season when everybody was busy shopping. That sounds like an advanced holiday treat for Gmail users.
A week from now, Gmail will get a retouch with a small green indicator in its inbox. This tiny indicator will also tell you the date your package was shipped and its arrival.
You will see more information by simply tapping the email. The information includes the link that will help you track the package and other details.
You will know the status of your package, whether it will arrive tomorrow or has just been delivered.
If delays happen, Gmail will also notify you if there is a such delay.
This new feature, however, does not come by default. Of course, Google provides an option with a pop-up giving you a choice if you allow the updates or not.
Once you don't need the notification, you can also turn off the status update.

The Best of Gmail
It seemed just like yesterday when Gmail delivered to us an email service with 1GB storage capacity through its crude interface when it debuted on April 1, 2004. It has grown up now in terms of the number of people using the Google signature email service.
Eighteen years have passed, it seems more is not enough for Google. It keeps on improving the email service serving at least 1.5 billion active users as of 2019.
