But third-party vendors didn\u2019t get on board, and as a result, to many users the feature essentially didn\u2019t exist.<\/p>\n<p>But iOS 26 fixed that.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to Apple Intelligence, Apple found a way to bypass the need to partner with online retailers. Instead, <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2025\/09\/25\/ios-26-gives-wallets-most-neglected-feature-the-fix-it-always-needed\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">it can now gather<\/a> the latest info on your orders directly from your email via on-device AI.<\/p>\n<p>To get started, go to Settings \u21fe Wallet &amp; Apple Pay \u21fe Order Tracking and make sure the \u2018Mail (Beta)\u2019 toggle is turned on. Additionally, Apple Intelligence needs to be activated on your device and your email account needs to be set up in Apple Mail.<\/p>\n<p>When you have an email containing an order, tap the \u2018Track\u2019 button at the top of Apple\u2019s Mail app. You might also see a security prompt where you\u2019ll hit \u2018Allow.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Once set up, Apple Wallet order tracking will automatically import emails containing orders into the Wallet app for you.<\/p>\n<p>Finding your orders inside the Wallet app<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/order-tracking-apple-wallet-ios-26-new.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1048936\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>You can find all orders inside Wallet by tapping the three-dot icon in the app\u2019s top-right corner then hitting \u2018Orders.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>This will show you all upcoming orders, plus a history of previous ones you can browse.<\/p>\n<p>If you see a vendor that doesn\u2019t belong (for example, I\u2019ve gotten order tracking details for restaurant mobile orders), you can delete the order and get the option of blocking that merchant altogether.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/order-tracking-apple-wallet-ios-26-block-merchant.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1048937\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve loved using Wallet for order tracking for several reasons:<\/p>\n<p>All my orders show up in one place<\/p>\n<p>I can turn off notifications from apps that might use spam alerts, like Amazon, while still getting notified by Wallet<\/p>\n<p>The UI makes it easy to navigate to other recent orders from the same vendor<\/p>\n<p>For more on what\u2019s new and coming soon to Apple Wallet, <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2026\/04\/14\/apple-wallet-keeps-getting-better-heres-whats-new-and-coming-next\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">check out this recent post<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>How has order tracking in Apple Wallet been working for you in iOS 26?
