Posten

Overview

The Posten functionality in the Norske Tjenester app allows users to stay updated with their mail delivery status in Norway. This feature is designed to provide convenience by notifying users about the expected delivery dates of their mail.

How It Works

  • The Posten device in the app uses the Norwegian postal service's API to fetch the latest information about mail delivery.

  • Users can enter their postal code in the app settings, and the app will display the next expected delivery date for their location.

  • The app periodically checks for updates and notifies users accordingly.
