This is the (Android) app I'm using for those who may not have it or have a different one...

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spinachsoftware.immigration.uscis.casestatus&hl=en

You log your case details and then in the settings it has options for checking the status 2 times or 4 times a day automatically. Has some other features too which I've found to be as accurate as can be ;)
