How to fix Die Schweizerische Post not working
Die Schweizerische Post is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach post.ch over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Check the official Post status page
Open the official status page and read the notice at the top. It shows whether problem reports for the service are above their usual level across 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours, so you can tell if the fault is local or widespread. If the help centre has a fix for your specific service, use that before changing anything on your phone.
Try the Post website instead of the app
Open the website in a browser and sign in if it asks. If tracking or login works there, the app on your phone is the likely fault. Use the same network for both tests.
Switch the Post app between Wi-Fi and mobile data
Turn off Wi-Fi; open the app over mobile data. If it loads, restart your router or forget the network in your phone settings and join it again. A captive portal or a local DNS block can leave one device broken while the rest of the house works.
Reinstall the Swiss Post app
Install any pending app update from the App Store or Google Play. If that fails, reinstall it from the store, then sign in with your account because a bad cache or a broken login token can survive a restart.
While Die Schweizerische Post is down: what to use instead
- Post office counter If online tracking or the postage shop won't load, staff at a branch can still accept your parcel, sell you stamps and look up a tracking number for you.
- Website instead of the app When the Post app hangs on login or shows a blank delivery list, open post.ch in a browser because the web version sometimes works while the app does not.
- My Post 24 terminal You can drop off or collect a parcel at one of these lockers without waiting for a counter to open.
- DHL Express or DPD Book with another carrier if a shipment can't wait until the online services are back.

What happens when Die Schweizerische Post goes down
Die Schweizerische Post is Switzerland's national postal service. It handles letters and parcels and runs branch counters, while you might use the app, track a shipment, print a label, or change an address; an outage interrupts those tasks.
Parcel tracking is often the first thing to fail. You get a spinner or a blank result instead of scan events, and the app may refuse your login. Online forms for address changes and redirection can fail when you submit them, while label printing and pickup code access often stall because they depend on the same account and tracking systems. Problems are often partial, so one region or one platform can break while letter mail and branch counters keep working.

How we track Die Schweizerische Post
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Die Schweizerische Post, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Die Schweizerische Post, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Die Schweizerische Post's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
