Phone apps for Disney Parks....??

[snookiedoodles]

I recently heard that they have phone apps to help you navigate the disney parks.

I can't seem to find any info on this. I have a blackberry.

Does any know....if so how does it work?

If you are talking about the same app that I have seen recently, it's only for Verizon.

However, from the list of phones it can be used on, no smartphones. That's what is really upsetting to me about this app.

The coolest thing about it, to me, is the fact that you can check out which characters are out and where they are.

I don't have 10 posts yet so I can't post the link. But it's called Disney Mobile Magic on Verizon.

I have an iPhone and there are some decent apps available, but nothing direct from Disney and as cool as the Verizon one.

It’s here. Our first official Disney Parks mobile application is now available and you’re invited to check it out.

Trying Mobile Magic is simple. Verizon Wireless customers can download the application for $9.99 for 180 days. Just go to the Media Center to “Browse & Download,” then “Get New Applications.” You’ll then find Mobile Magic in the “Travel & Navigation” folder. The app can also be found by texting Magic to 2777 later today.

You should know that there’s a 24-hour free trial available for a limited time if you’d like to test it out. In either case, download and message charges may apply. Airtime or megabyte data charges may also apply when browsing, downloading and using certain applications. You can access the Disney Parks mobile web site by going to either m.disneyland.com or m.disneyworld.com on your mobile web browser.

I've tried the link on my HTC thru IE and it worked great.

if I am not on Verizon? We have US Cellular, but I would love to have this! I also have an itouch, but it's not 3G, only wifi, so I guess I would have to be in a wifi area, which would not be helpful at WDW. I have a smartphone from USC (Bliss), is there an app for that?

Check out Lines from touringplans.com (http://m.touringplans.com/). It gives me my Disney fix on my Blackberry. The Verizon app doesn't work on Blackberry but this is a reasonable substitute for now. Hoping something better comes along before our trip in Dec! HTH

Again, I have used m.disneyworld.com on my phone with great success. I am a US Cellular customer, not Verizon. I have a smartphone.
