Besides MDE and Lines, are there any other phone Apps anyone uses to help manage their Disney vacation?

I could be wrong, but I seem to recall seeing someone who had a transportation system app on their phone that gave wait times for the monorails and buses when I was last there 4 years ago.

I don't see how there could be a transportation wait app for Disney unless Disney themselves put it out because how would anyone else know when the next bus or monorail was due to arrive?

yeah, my memory could be failing. Unless the app had a GPS associated with it like Waze and its users would report when they were on a monorail or bus (or the app somehow did it passively).

I downloaded a transportation app which gives you all the alternatives for going from a given point in DW to another point. Not a schedule but gives you a selection of routes by bus, car, boat etc. and the average times. Search your app store for "OLP transportation wizard"

I seem to remember that there was talk of adding the bus information to MDE, but it obviously hasn't happened yet.

OLP isn't a good source for transportation routes - it's been known to give routes that don't exist or take longer than necessary.

Thanks for that. I will remember to take it with a grain of salt!
