Chromed out

Packagetrackr user and all around Good Samaritan, Richard pointed out to us recently that it's now possible to run web apps in a chrome-free full page in Mobile Safari.

We gave it a whirl last weekend and we love the extra screen space. Unfortunately, as others have noted, it requires some retooling of the site pages to prevent page changes from loading in regular windows. For those of you interested in the details: more info here, here and here [ADC Login Req'd]

We'll let you know when it's ready, as you have to add Packagetrackr anew to your home screen, but in the meantime, here are screenshots.

Packagetrackr, as you see it today:

What do you want from us?

No, really, we wanna know!

We've launched a page on UserVoice. Head over there to vote on what carriers we should support next, or to make other suggestions for us. Perhaps you have an opinion on what the official sandwich spread of Packagetrackr.com should be. Hooray! One less thing we have to decide at lunchtime.

Whatever you think about the site, you can still contact us via the feedback form, (We love all the feedback! Keep it coming!) but in terms of prioritization, we think it's best to look at what you all are voting for the most.

Happy Tracking Voicing!

Tip of the hat
