Searching for fourth FP on two phones

[westminster]

What is the best way for two people to search for FP for the same party simultaneously while in the parks? I've done all the planning for our trip next week and my wife doesn't have an MDE account. If she downloads the app onto her phone, can she just log into my account to search? Or should she create her own account and then link to my phone (if so can someone walk me through how to set that up)? Thanks!

Does she not have any account at all? Or do you have her an account "under" yours? She will have to have an account of some type to use Fp's. So, she either needs a separate one, or you need to make her one within yours. (It seems from your title you already have 3 FP's for the day, so she already has an account if that's true.)

Yes, she'll need to download the app either way. Then, she can either log into yours, or simply set up one of her own. If you guys set her up one on her own, then you link the two accounts within MDE. It's kind of like sending a Friends request, and then accepting the request.

But, if what I suspect is true (she already has an account that you manage), then the simplest thing is for her to log into your account after downloading the app on her phone.

She is on my resort reservation and our tickets are linked and I booked her FP as well as our kids. So the way it is now, she is listed in my Family and Friends list and it says “Plans managed by me.” So it sounds like easiest is for her to just download the app onto her phone and then log in using my account name and password? And there will be no issue with us searching simultaneously for the same guests? Can we also search simultaneously on the mobile website using the same account?

Be careful to do this while you are both together and discussing it.
If you don't, one of you might accidentally "cancel" a brand new change made by the other.

1. Yes.

This is how we did it last time and it worked well.
It was interesting that often different times and attractions came up for each of us even though we were searching the same park, times and attactions.
