Walt Disney World and Disneyland have nearly completed the internal infrastructure required to launch the first official Disney Parks mobile application, Mobile Magic.
According to the official Disney Parks Blog, the downloadable application places current Disney Parks information in the palm of your hand, including updated ride and attraction wait times, FASTPASS information, character greeting times and locations, and GPS maps that make it easier to navigate the parks.
The Mobile Magic application is designed for Verizon Wireless subscribers, but non-subscribers can also access park information through texts and the Disney Parks Mobile Web site, which is expected to go live soon.
Mobile Magic is theme park sensitive. For example, guests can access official park information for Magic Kingdom rides and attractions while they visit that park, but the Mobile Magic application will not provide updated information on Disney World's other three theme parks while they are outside of those parks. Specific Disney theme park information is sent directly to Verizon Wireless customers while they frequent that particular park.
Mobile Magic will make it easier for Disney World and Disneyland guests to coordinate their activities with accurate park information. The Disney Parks report that the Mobile Magic application will be available soon.
For more information or to purchase the Mobile Magic application, visit the official Disney Parks Web site.
