Today we’re going to look at how to track packages and mail in Home Assistant. This quick and easy project will allow you to see the status of packages being shipped to your house.
I don’t show you how to set up your account for the major carriers like UPS, USPS, and FedEx. But I’ve got links below to a quick guide from the integrations author.
