Welp I guess we are eating 😐
I don’t want to be charged 30 bucks for a no show.
We would have been fine but the ride broke down for an hour 🤷‍♀️
I wouldn't worry too much, just do what you gotta do first, then go to the other location and explain that you were held up either eating or on the rotr ride. Most places are understanding of the issues and work with you.
 
Is there anything your ADR location can give you to show you were there? I now one time we were racing through dinner (after waiting and being let in more than 30 mins late for our ADR) to get to a FP. We were told they FP would be understandable. Hope it's the same with RotR. It's worth at least asking.
 
I’m sure people mentioned this but when i practiced today, 3 out of the 4 people that will be with me in DHS showed up. One didnt. I clicked through and would’ve technically gotten a boarding group for the 3 of us that showed up.
If this does happen when we are there is that something that a CM would be able to fix so the 4th person in our party would be able to join?
i saw vloggers saying that if you cause enough of a stink to a CM they can make sure you get a BG. But that’s just a glitch i don’t want to have ruin our chances.
the time it took me today to get out of the screen and try joining again resulted in the groups being full. But i did see that my 4th person did show up when i did that

I believe that i have read on here that if that happens you can go to a CM to add the other person.
 
I finally got my boyfriend to try and practice with me at home and every time he clicks on the Rise page the app closes out. Yeah...... that's not going to be helpful at the park. He has an iphone and the app is updated.

Is it an older iphone? there were some people discussing this yesterday where there's a known issue with older iphone's doing this. Disney claims its on Apple's end but is trying to work with them to fix it.

I was having the same trouble. I have an iPhone 7. I downloaded IOS 13.6 to update my phone. Once that was done, the updated MDE app works perfectly.

Sounds like from the person above that as long as you have the most up to date version of the app, it should work. Glad you were able to get to ride today!
 
Replying to myself... here right now. Waited at Riviera at 9:05 for about 5-7 minutes. Now, in line at CBR. Looks like a long line, but going fast. Stated wait time was 5 — which was about right. So, leaving Riviera at 9:05, suspect will be in park at HS 9:35. Will let you know if that does not happen . . .
How did it go? I'm planning on staying at CBR/RR next week and I've only seen reports for the skyliner at POP

Great! Got to HS at 9:34. The line at CBR did look long, but was moving very fast. We had to enter the same line after coming from Riviera that you will when getting on at CBR. (I had wondered if we would be led over to the HS Skyliner line and kind of zipper merge with another line of CBR folks, but that is not the case. You literally go to the back of a new line). There were a lot of people at the HS entry, but if you do not have bags, It was very fast. Even with bags, not that bad. My whole party was tapped in and we arrived at ToT at 9:40. Just an FYI—they ask if you are trying for RotR to NOT do so in line. Only queue up if you are riding and not delaying the line. The ride was to begin at 9:45. We took our chances, and were off the ride by 9:54. We then headed to RRR, sat right outside, got our RotR boarding group and immediately into RRR line for walk-on right at 10. . .
So, at least for MY experience on a Sunday in August, had you lined up at 9:15 at CBR you would have made it into HS with plenty of time to spare to try for RotR (see my other post about the many rides we were able to accomplish). Good luck!
 
Yesterday we took a Lyft ride from Pop Century to HS. We left Pop at 9:10 and were in the park by 9:30. We waited 5 minutes for Starbucks and then waited over by tower of terror until 10. I was too slow despite practicing multiple times just fine but luckily my friend got boarding group 6 on her phone. We were called within 15 minutes and got in line but the ride broke down after 30 minutes of waiting. We tried back later in the afternoon and the whole line took us about 25 minutes. Thanks to everyone on the boards for helping us by sharing their experiences!

Unfortunately, the iPhone 6 I had was so old it could not be upgraded to IOS 13 at all. I think that may be the issue. Regardless, I threw in the towel and just bought an iPhone SE. They may fix the issue for older phones by the time we are at HS next week, or may not, but I did not want to risk it. I feel a little silly, but the SE is a good price, and my phone could use an upgrade anyway for battery performance and memory issues. Issue went away completely on the newer phone so I do think it was my old phone that was to blame.

I hope this solves your issue! My adult DD is also looking to pick up the new SE at some point. She has the old SE but she's having the exact same issues you describe with the iPhone 6. She hasn't tried the VQ yet but the app seems to generally be working for her OK.

Good luck to everyone trying either for real or practice today! DH is going to do a practice run today. Giving DD my phone so she can give it a whirl too.
 
Wow. Played around with it this morning. Got my party in once. Would have gotten a BG. Backed out and did it again. It was closed. It couldn’t have been 10-15 seconds. If you don’t know what you are doing you would have virtually no shot of getting a BG
 
So I did my daily practice run today. Got through but it only showed me and no friends/family. Then I backed out and it showed my entire group. Weird stuff it does. Looks like it was gone again in 45 seconds today.

Just did the test on the new SE and it worked (as in, I got to the screen that says we are not in the park without the app crashing). Insane how fast it goes though! I tried again after through the first screen the first time (only about 15 seconds after the clock hit 10am) and all groups were gone.
