Map availability is based on both the package and the driver’s vehicle. If your package has a delivery window you will be provided a map closer to the start of that window. If you do not have a window you’ll be provided a map when the driver is close to your location (availability time can vary). If the driver’s vehicle is not equipped with a GPS device to “follow” them, you will not be given a view of the driver. Answer from UPS_Blue_Ghost on reddit.com

The "Follow my delivery live on map" feature.

Honestly that feature was terrible for the drivers. I had customers finding me on my brakes, driving into industrial parks, blocking me in on docks, walking into docks and businesses, being coming safety hazards, just so they can get their Nikes. I’ve had people threaten to hurt or kill me just because I told them, “sorry I can’t get to your package right now” or “I have to deliver all my air first” or “Sorry my truck is too packed” or “I just don’t have it”

it was just not worth it

It depends on the driver's tablet, called a diad. The diad is what sends out the GPS signal, well it is supposed to. Some diads are better than others. For some unknown reason there are diads that just plain suck at transmitting and if you driver has a sucky one, then good luck following them. Also, since the diads work off cell phone towers, if the towers are running at peak capacity with calls, the diad GPS signal can't get through since it is considered a lower priority than a phone call. Also, some drivers know how to turn off the radio transmitter so they do that occasionally. Other times the driver will deliver to a factory that runs a signal jammer to keep people from stealing corporate secrets and that jammer will put the diad into airplane mode. The driver doesn't always remember to turn the radio back on immediately. Add to that weather and buildings that are basically faraday cages and you end up with lots of reasons why you can't see the driver on the map.

Have they gotten rid of it permanently? I feel like, at the rate they've been stripping features from online tracking, within a year or two it's literally just going to tell you when your package has shipped, and when it's been delivered. Seems to be a trend toward greater opacity between corporations and both their customers and their employees/contractors.

The tracker is pointless. No way to know when you're the next stop. Saying they're nearby means nothing since drivers go in any order they feel like

r/UPS on Reddit: Why is the Follow my Delivery map not showing anymore?

September 27, 2024 -

Hi everyone, recently, the Follow my Delivery map has not been working for my recent packages. Without it, I just have to wait around all day long because UPS could show up at anytime. If the map was showing I could just make sure I’m available when UPS comes in my area. Is there any way I can get the map again? Today I have a package coming from Amazon and due to high theft, everything needs a signature, so that‘s why I have to wait around all day if the map is not showing. I‘ll give a picture below of what the tracking shows me. Thanks!

I don't get the map anymore, I think they turn it off in my neighborhood for safety reasons. It sucks because I have no map to guestimate when the truck is nearing my house.

Seems to be intermittent. Just now, it showed up for a delivery due this afternoon. And showed the truck nearby. I just checked again and now it shows a message, "Your Follow My Delivery live map is no longer available..." Maybe it turns off when the truck gets close by? Is that possible? Oddly, there is a link to track on a different page. If I click that, the new page (which is the same page) loads inside a window, so I get a page within a page. I can keep doing that and get a bunch of recursive windows. It's turtles all the way down....

r/UPS on Reddit: Did UPS get rid of the live delivery map?

January 3, 2025 -

I get packages delivered frequently by UPS. Within maybe the last month or so I've noticed that when the package is out for delivery I am no longer getting the option to track the progress on the live map. This has been happening with UPS Ground packages and is happening right now with a UPS Next Day Air Saver package which is out for delivery right now. I checked within the app and I am not seeing the option to track on live map and I also checked on my PC through the UPS website. Has anyone else experienced this problem recently?

I hope so. We don’t need people tracking our every move and trying to pull up to us asking for their package (that I won’t release unless I’m at your home).
