Keep us informed on how accurate it is.

Finally something we can use! Blackberry and Palm phones in the house = not many apps for us.

I have this downloaded. It currently says 35 mins for FJ, and 30 mins for Hippogriff. It has been 30mins all day for Hippogriff, whereas in the past week IN THE PARKS MYSELF, I NEVER saw anything above 15 minutes apart from last Thursday morning when it went to 40mins.

Ripsaw 20mins, Bluto 5mins, I think it's pretty accurate to be honest, although I would need to know how many people sending data there is in order to see if the average is credible or not.

For example, someone might have sent info for Hippogriff's 30 mins at 10am this morning. As nobody else is updating live, the wait time for Hippogriff still stands at 30 minutes, despite 8 hours having passed since the initial update.

It will get more reliable when more people begin to use it.

We used this June 8. It was totally inaccurate.

Hopefully when more people use it it will be better.

FJ said 30 min at 11AM, posted wait was 120min. Actual wait was 90 min.

All day waits in HP were >45 min, but application said 20 - 30. It was a bit misleading and really underestimates the wait times, in my opinion. We pocketed the phone and played it by ear by about noon. It was a bummer.

I found it to be very accurate when I was there June 2-5. I was using the iPhone version so I don't know if that made any difference.
