r/UPS on Reddit: How can I get Live Map Tracking to work again?
January 7, 2026 -

I used to be able to tack my delivery driver on a live map, but now I always see this message below. I have tried contacting customer service, and they claim that it must be the sender that changed their settings to not allow live tracking. I don't believe this is true because it always used to work and now all of a sudden it does not work for any of my incoming packages. Anyone have any insight? *Edited to add that I am a paid UPS My Choice member.

r/UPS on Reddit: How does the track my delivery GPS map work?
January 28, 2026 -

Posting this mostly out of curiosity but usually I'm able to track my delivery via the UPS app as it pops up with a little GPS map that shows where the truck is located, I've formed a relationship with the driver and sometimes I'll meet him in my neighborhood to pick up my package. He told me he prefers it because it saves him time, apparently his routing takes him in and out of my neighborhood several times throughout the day and I save him a little time when I meet him in the neighborhood at the start of his route. Well today I have a package coming and this morning the tracking showed it loaded in the truck and the little GPS map with the truck was up and working but as soon as it went out for delivery the map disappeared, just curious why or how this might happen, is it something the driver can turn on/off or just a malfunction with the gps in the truck? Just find it unusual that it was working right up until it went out for delivery, thanks for any insight in advance.

edit: I'm assuming there's just an issue with the gps itself as the map did populate eventually and was showing for a while but then disappeared again randomly.

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?

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!

r/UPS on Reddit: How accurate is the GPS on Live Delivery map?
March 25, 2021 -

Just curious how accurate the truck location is on the live map. Every time I have a package coming and I check it the truck is always right around my area but I don't end up getting the package until hours later and see the truck driving all over town. Today my delivery is scheduled 12pm-4pm EST and from like 11-12:30 truck was right in my area even on my same street at one point right in front of my building lol. I'm not trying to rush, timing doesn't matter I'm home and off today anyways but I do have to sign, was just curious how it works. I read has to do with package priority but I have two diff packages on the truck one being 2nd Day Air and other Worldwide Saver, as well as an Amazon pickup scheduled for today but that usually happens later in the day prob diff truck.

Anyways, just home bored and curious how the route process works.. thanks!

hello! is there a way to track where the UPS truck is? I have an emergency and my son can not leave work to sit at my house all day to wait for the package. I also leave for vacation tomorrow so won’t be back for a while.

r/UPS on Reddit: UPS "FOLLOW THE MAP" THING IS WEIRD
May 27, 2021 -

I have a package coming, says "will arrive by 7 pm", it's now 7:30 pm. Checked the map a while ago and for about 30 minutes the map showed the truck sitting in the same spot. I once saw the back of a UPS truck open up (we assumed the driver was on his lunch break) and out jumped a pretty young woman who giggled at the driver and said goodbye. Ain't love grand? Now the map shows the truck being on top of the Walmart building down the street from us, not being on the street itself. I went out and looked down the street - I don't see the truck, must be one of those new UPS "stealth" vehicles. How can a package be on a truck early in the morning and not get delivered until 8 pm or whatever?

February 28, 2022 - Its the UPS My Choice app. Make an account with username and password. One hour before the expected delivery time a link appears for your package called Follow My Delivery. There you can see a map of roads, ehere your house is, and where the UPS truck is.

Like does it show exactly where the driver is or it's just an estimate where the driver is?

P.S. I have a Next Day Air package with Live Map tracking and it shows a brown UPS box on the map and it's close to my house but the driver only has 40 mins left since it has to be here by 10:30AM.

I have a package arriving today and was glad to see the option to track the delivery van I'm real time on a map. Saves me from being tied to the house and I can meet the driver. I'm wondering about drivers ' thoughts on this feature. I can see people tracking you down to get their package. Are there other downsides? Do you like it?

Is there any way to view the Live Delivery Map using your tracking number at UPS.com instead of using the link you usually receive in hte email?

I have a package that is showing as Out For Delivery, but it also shows a Scheduled Delivery date of Monday, so I haven't received the email saying "You have a package expecting to be delivered today".
