What apps do you use while at the park?

I used to have an app with ride wait times and restaurant info, but I deleted it when I needed more space on my phone. Now I don't remember what it was. What do you use?

I use MouseWait...user updated wait times but it tells you when they were entered so you can gague how close it might be

That's exactly what I was using. Thanks so much!

MouseWait is my favorite too!

As tempting as it is to bring my phone into the park, we choose to experience the park phone-free. It is actually quite liberating and helps to make our time more carefree and relaxed. It makes me sad to see people spacing-out and staring at their phone when they can be enjoying the park.

We use photopass photographers to capture pics and we make regular trips back to our room during the day so we can check essential info on our phones. Another perk is that you don't have to worry about your phone getting wet or falling loose on a ride.

We will be challenged for our upcoming trip as we are meeting friends that are staying at a different hotel. Our meet-ups will have to be carefully orchestrated -- like the old days!

Try it next time you are staying onsite... I highly recommend it!

Since I use my phone as a camera and a watch I won't go phone free...however, I usually keep it in airplane mode to help conserve battery.

Phone free isn't an option for me. I have my phone number on a bracelet around my DGD6's wrist in case we get separated. I also use it if we need to make/change/cancel a reservation, and sometimes to check wait times. It's also awesome at photos and videos. But I don't check email or texts or anything like that while we're in the parks.

I also use my phone for a camera and watch, and love the airplane mode idea when I'm not on MouseWait.

Another Mouse Wait app fan. We also use our phone for pictures (along with our camera) and a clock. It's also nice to play Heads Up if you are stuck in a really long line...especially if you can get the strangers standing next to you to join in (and then become un-strangers).
