So, this is really odd. Probably just the MDE app but wondering if you guys think I should be concerned.
Yesterday I modified three FP on one day using the website. All seems to go through perfectly. Then I got a message that one of those was changed to a different time but when I look at MDE they are all as I set them yesterday. When I look in the app however it shows 6 FP for that day. All my original ones and all my new ones. With all the times overlapping.
Should I be concerned?
 
The same thing happened to me the other day. The three new ones were good to go and we used them (got the green lights On entry). Because I had been making so many changes the problem was I couldn’t remember which ones were the legit ones, and we made a mistake and went to one of the old ones, jungle cruise. When we showed up light went blue, the attendant looked at her computer and told us where we should be, we explained that our app was showing jungle cruise, she asked to see the app which was showing jungle cruise and the other ride, and then waved us through onto jungle cruise, and then later we went to the legit ride. Our intent was not to scam the system, we just couldn’t work out which was the legit fast pass. we had refreshed numerous times but it wouldn’t fix itself.
 
My app has FPs listed that I don't actually have right now with overlapping times. I figured at some point it'll correct itself? Website looked right last time I checked. I'm told that Disney IT is super great. :joker:
 

I'm curious...check your FPs on the mobile site - is it the same?

I would uninstall and reinstall the app. It's not the greatest. A couple weeks ago I switched resorts and added an additional day of tickets, and MDE wasn't reflecting that, Uninstall and reinstalled, and poof, it was good!
 
If your phone allows you an option to clear saved data/cache with an app, do that
MDE both on the browser and the app are bad to keep cached info and it will prevent the new data from showing.

I was going to say it's just a glitch until I saw post #2. Any "glitch" that works in someone's favor is really an "undocumented feature".
LOL... well, in that case it was a user error that a CM accommodated cause they don't like to say no. Another CM in the same situation may have said, nope. You never know

We had strange app glitches during our stay in November. Sometimes our FPs would show varying numbers of party members, most typically my family of 4 would appear as only '1' member (me). We got a little freaked out about this but it would always seem to fix itself with a few refreshes

Another weird issue we found would be like walking to our 12:05 Test Track FP, but glancing at the app, I'd have nothing at all for noon. Closing the app and reopening would seem to clear this.

One thing I started doing when reviewing the day's activities in the morning, I'd take screenshots of the FPs before heading out. Never ever had to utilize my screenshots, but it made me feel better.
 
Oh good, it's not just mine! I made changes to mine yesterday and found the same thing - it was showing the old and new choices. I refreshed it a few times and it eventually fixed itself. I was worried I was doing something wrong (I am completely new to this).
