Let's Talk Smart Phone Apps For WDW

[Nicki aka Rebelstand 272]

I checked it today just to see... the worst wait time was TSM!

[Roller ... aka Ed 351]

I have Undercover Tourist loaded, but I don't use it much. We're into the more 'laid back' vacations at Disney, now. If we're in the mood to go to a park, I see which one(s) are the least crowded, and that's where we head.

We are going to try this route next visit ... Except for the ADRs. But nothin is perfect

I never used the apps other than to gauge park crowds based on wait times. This last trip I was with two friends who wanted to do the parks commando style. I was committed, so I went along for the ride. Disney's app was a lifesaver. It saved us from backtracking and wasting a bunch of time. The fast pass return times is probably my favorite part. The downside is it's super slow due to the amount of data it's pulling.

I don't have to think about which app to use.

[CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547]

Neither do I.

Neither do I.

I didn't until a month ago. I finally let DH talk me into a smart phone... but I find it is only as smart as the user. Guess we are in trouble :rofl2:

An update to Touring Plans "Lines" app...

Lines Update: FASTPASS Return Times

by Sarah Kelleth

on May 11, 2012

I’m happy to announce that a feature many of you have been asking for has been added to Lines – the ability to add your FASTPASS return time to your touring plan!

Previously, when you marked a FASTPASS step as complete in Lines and then optimized, the optimizer would make an estimate of your return time and plan accordingly. Now, when you complete a FASTPASS step you also have the option of entering your actual return time (you can still decide not to if you’re in a hurry) for the optimizer to use.

This update also includes several bug fixes for Lines. Thanks to everyone who has submitted a bug report!

Let us know what you think of our newest feature!

I really wish I had found touring plans before our first visit. It would have made life a lot easier as we booked the vacation only 6 weeks before the trip... with dining plan included
