Then there are people like me, so obsessive that we can not stand a single red dot and have to clear every one within seconds. I know I should learn to relax more!

You are not alone!
Those red badges may drive some crazy, for many...basically "who gives a -"
I HAD one red mail badge, opened the email . from "Apple - Apple iPhone 12 Mini, 12 Pro Max available now" (Oh...cool. Thanks!) LOL

They attempted delivery for my HomePod today. Couldn't find my apartment (FedEx never does) so I'll have to pick it up from their store later.

Surprised it came early.

The last apt I lived in was like that. The slumlord who owned it, for some reason, labeled the garages with the apartment numbers (we were on the beach and in a stilt building, so the garages were the first floor and the apts started on the 2nd floor) so most of the time, UPS and/or FedEx would deliver packages to our storage unit, to a random apt, or leave them at the bottom of 2 flights of stairs (that one was my personal fave, especially for heavy boxes from Chewy). For the last iPhone launch I was there, I wrote a huge note stating that I was home, that my home was at the top of the stairs, and please don’t leave without knocking on the door. Lol.

I handled the mini in store: very cool. So much like my beloved iphone 5.

UPS truck was practically on my block then went “nah” and basically went over to the next neighborhood lol.

In my choice, once the truck departs the warehouse, you'll get an email.

@DumbPhone if it's available*

I wasn't able to track my iPhone 12 delivery. I'm not certain what determines this feature. Best of luck to you!

My UPS truck looks to jut be doing loops around my house in a 1 mile radius like an allegory for my slow spiral of madness waiting for it.

Same ?

Apparently my work is sending me one when the demand goes down. Very curious at handling that since the real estate is very slim.

The mini has arrived! After a long journey it finally reached its home.

Apple's server meltdown yesterday has made my setup process, much easier today. On new phone day I am usually on a beta release. So I have to temp set up the new phone and install the beta profile -then upgrade to the beta. After that I factory reset and properly setup including restoring my backup from iCloud. This year I'm on release (I did not get 14.3 yesterday before it was pulled) So set the phone next to the old one and let it do the auto transfer. Done!

 

[chasers]

Isn't it though?

The edges are fingerprint magnets, so I know I'll OCD about keeping those wiped down...

it is but oddly enough with the Graphite it doesn’t bother me. and i carry a microfiber cloth everywhere i go. some in my car, work bag, purses. i’m not OCD i swear ?. another thing about the Graphite is it looks great in any case.

Couldn't you go out and get it from the driver as long as you have your ID? not sure if drivers do that or not.

 

[Renho]

It’s here! UPS scared the crap out of me though because they delivered it to one of my neighbors! WTF

How do you see this map???

 

[dotzero123]

If you play with the zoom feature on My UPS you can make the truck appear closer to your home. I understand that this is quite sad but is what I've resorted to. My little 'problem' with Apple products is appalling even to me. That being said, I think I need to pace by the door for a while. It will take my mind off the UPS app.
