Mine says the same thing so I was thinking that is why it says exception

Not sure if any of this still works the same way, but a couple of years ago I ordered a MacBook Pro on release day for in store pickup and I was able to track by reference on UPS/Fedex to the store. It was still fun to see it go from China all the way to being signed for by my local Apple Store manager.
I think it depends on the UPS driver. We have a regular driver that knows I work from home and I've always told him to just sign for my packages. We live in the country and I have 4 GSDs so no porch pirates coming around here. However we've had a new dude that is coming sometimes and he rings the doorbell DESPITE my sign by the door asking him not to! It makes the dogs lose their mind and it's usually when I'm on a conf call. I have a Kuna camera that alerts me when someone approaches the door.
The app works well for me. I haven’t had any problems using it or it providing wrong information.

Our phones are traveling together

I chose to pick up my iPhone 12 Pro Max from the Apple Store, so I am unable to track my iPhone. It's 22 minutes to the Apple Store and 30 minutes to the UPS Customer Center, but I'll have to park at the mall and walk to the store. The store is in a much nicer area than the CC, however. I hope I don't get mugged coming out of the store.

Hah...
....and yeah, I’ve worked from home for a while and the UPS and FedEx folks never ask me to sign as long as the front door is open.
They like to talk to my buddy through the glass.
AT&T never even gives me a box. I think for my 6s Plus it was some paper work and a bubble mailer from Apple. A bubble mailer. I found a box to put it in. I was not trusting that phone pounding through the system in a bubble mailer.In my case ATT tells me to either use the box my iPhone ships in to return or it's sent via Fedex....so nope - it's the phone
I think that year I end up with a little bonus, too. I sent it in a little late and forgot to include the paperwork. So I called eventually when the charge for the phone appeared on my bill. The woman at customer service did some checking and said 'oh we can see where it arrived at the warehouse' and removed the charge. A week later the phone came back to me from AT&T with a note that pretty much said 'We don't know what this is for so we sent it back.'
Sold it. WOOHOO!
One of my 2 phones showed up in MyChoice in Shanghai. Not sure if it’s the Pro Max or the Mini. Any ideas?
True story - I had 3 of the German shepherds inside the house and our storm door was closed and locked. They were barking as this new UPS dude was walking down our sidewalk to the front door and the dogs were losing their minds. I went to the door to hold them back (because yes they have taken the storm door once) and had to hold them inside the house b/c the UPS guy stopped walking and held his hands in the air like he was under arrest and had started walking backward until I waved him to come forward. He was delivery something I had been waiting on and I wasn't about to have him not drop it off - lol. These days when I know UPS is coming I close the front door so the UPS dudes feel a little safer. The dogs are never allowed outside of the fenced in backyard unless we are with them but apparently they are still scary barking and growling at the windows (and before we replaced our windows they had broken more than one of those too...). Handsome guard dog you have there!Hah...

Nothing in MyChoice for me either. Glad others are getting info which means ours should not be long behind!
Forgive me if the question has been repeated (dont want to go thru 550+ pages of posts lol)
How do you check on UPS, with what information? I ordered my 12 Pro Max 128gb Friday morning 5 minutes after it went live, thru the App Store app on my iPhone. Order still shows Processing. Do I have to wait until it says preparing to ship to get any information?
This is for delivery in Canada, if it makes any difference.

Is there a way we can do a poll of what phone everyone got? I am curious.
My iPhone 12 Pro Max is still preparing for dispatch. Arrives Friday 13.
Ordered yesterday at 8:00 AM.
Pro Max Gold 256GB
Still at preparing to ship.
Nothing on my UPS account.
Pro Max Gold 256GB

Nothing on my UPS account.
Also in Canada and my order is still processing as well. If you have a UPS My Choice account it should show up there soon or you can track by reference number using your phone number I find usually works for me in Canada. PS Go Leafs!
I’m still Processing y’all.
Am I going be that iPhone that barely makes it on the UPS plane and everyone is looking at it funny because it came looking for a place to put its oversized carry-on? lol

It happens every year!
Unfortunately, that very thing happens literally every year. I’d have been beyond shocked if I got in right at 8 am, tbh. Just keep refreshing and get in as soon as possible. This, for me, was one of the most painless preorders so far (and I’ve had a new phone every launch since the 3GS, so I’ve been through some STUFF. Lol.)
I hope they ship all 3. There was someone that ordered 2 Pros and Apple cancelled one and said due to demand he couldn't order more than one. This was one person - others had ordered two and had no issues.... I had never heard of that before...
