The new auto-detect feature looks for a UPS tracking number on the iPhone"s clipboard whenever the app is opened.

What"s new - Scan to Track: Use your smart phone’s barcode reader to scan package tracking numbers to obtain updated information - Tracking Number Automatic Population: the UPS app will automatically search for tracking numbers saved on your smart phone and download them into the UPS app for immediate tracking.
