DIsney Parks Mobile Magic
Disney announced today that Disney Parks Mobile Magic is now available for iPhones (it's a free app.)
While I haven't seen any official announcement, I was able to install the Android version (free app) on my Sprint EVO 3D. Until now, you could only install it if you were with Verizon.
I thought the wait times would be more exact; they're the same descriptions as you find on the mobile website.

I checked into it today.. So far this app is only available in the US.. but "Yay" for iPhone users.
I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way.
-
I couldn't find the app at first. Got it now. The offical name is "Disney Mobile Magic".
Thanks for the heads up!
edit: This is perfect. Just what I wanted for our trip next week! Thanks a bunch!

Thanks for the info!! Had this before I upgrade to Iphone and liked it a lot.
With Verizon the actual wait times/fp returns don't appear until you are actually in the park and the location services on your phone is active.

Good to know. I'm looking forward to trying it out in October (maybe sooner if some work comes through for us in Florida.)

Is this one of those things where the wait times are updated by park-goers (and are nearly always worthless) or are these "official" wait times updated by cast members operating the ride?
Because if it's "official" times that could save a walk across the park!

They're not submitted by users. The times are the official attraction wait times.

Hmmm... Doesn't show up on my iPad, but does on my iPhone. Interesting... Does have Verizon plastered all over it, even though I'm on ATT. Easy to look past that...
-
I just installed it on my ATT iphone. I will be there in 35 days. I think I have a few too many WDW apps. I hope I don't get confused which one to use!

My son couldn't find it on his iPod Touch.

A friend downloaded and used it on the first day it was available for iphone. She said it works great - it is the official attraction wait times, not user submitted times. She also said it will not work until you are inside the main gate of the parks - not even standing outside at the turnstiles, so it's very gps specific. I believe it's not compatible with ipod or ipad, only with iphone. You can use it with any carrier, but Verizon customers are supposed to get special additional features (although I think it's just videos so no biggie).

I have it on my iPhone. It's pretty cool. There's a lot you can look at even far away from a park, but the wait times are just generalized (Moderate, high) until you enter a park, and then apparently they get much more specific with actual times.

Canadian's get left out in the cold again. Why can't Disney release these things universally. Seriously like 90% of us live within a few hundred kilometers from the US border.

Just downloaded it to my new Android phone (AT&T). It's cool!
When did it become free, though? I would be MAD if I had paid $9.99 for it when it first came out.
Can't wait to try it out in an actual park now!

They made it free at the end of August (2011.) I think the most it was for the Android app was $1.99, though.

There was a charge for this? WOW!
I'll confirm functionality works great on the iPhone with location faking apps available. I see wait times and fastpass return times. Looking for a place to eat right now!
I parked myself on a bench in back of Cinderella Castle and Magic Kingdom info opened up. Epcot was still locked until I "enter" that park.
Doesn't do me any good, but for those that just need to know...
Neat...

Yep. When this app first came out for Verizon customers, it was something like $6.99 or $9.99 PER SIX MONTH access! It was outrageous.

I DID pay the $9.99 way back when but I'm not mad. I'm just happy it's free now.
