when I go to the mobile site, there is nothing about fast passes or wait times, just general info and park hours. Not very helpful:(

Has anybody tried the new mobile wait time app put out by TouringPlans.com? I just found it today, and I'm curious how accurate it is. (It's currently free.)

-p.b. :cool:

I just checked it on my Palm Pre and it looks good. Not sure if the times are accurate but they are pretty specific compared to see now or high demand.

I'll try to see how accurate they are on my trip next week.:xmas:

Select a park -> Attractions -> Browse by Wait Time or Browse by FASTPASS Availability.

It doesn't list actual queue lengths, but rather if demand is "see now" (low wait time), "moderate", or "High".

Similarly with FASTPASS it tells you whether or not they are still available, but not current return times.

As of a few minutes ago, the average wait time and FASTPASS prediction was +/- 15 minutes from what's really going on in the parks. That's being skewed significantly by Space Mountain opening and closing and opening and closing...and something weird happened with Rock 'n Roller Coaster FASTPASS today.

We're working on fine-tuning the estimates as we speak, too.

Any time frame for smart phones/blackberry's, etc?

I have a Pre and it and the wdwmagic site work fine. Speaking of the Pre, did you see that there is an alpha homebrew for video recording available at precentral.net? It's amazing that with an open source OS (unlike the Kool-Aid clique iPhone) that you can get so many apps and features for FREE and in record time from the community. It took like 2 years for the iPhone to get video and with the Pre 3 guys wrote their own program to do it in under 4 months.

Anyway, glad to see WDW finally has a mobile site!

Yeah I saw this a few days ago but am having trouble adding it to my phone. I am going to have to get some one to do it for me, i'm not as tech savvy and am having a lot of trouble.

I checked m.disneyworld.com yesterday for fastpass information while in Hollywood Studios. It said that Fastpass was unavailable for Tower of Terror but it actually had them available for a few more hours after I checked.

The downloadable app is still not available on my phone.

I am sure they still have a few bugs to work out. I wonder just how automated the mobile site is.
 

Register on WDWMAGIC. This sidebar will go away, and you'll see fewer ads.
