Waste of time and money

This app was completely useless for our trip. The estimated wait times are completely inaccurate. We waited more than double the “estimated” wait time in the app for most rides. Trying to update a plan crashed the app and estimated crowd levels were not close at all. You are better off using the universal app and planning your rides that way. Most of the time the wait was less than posted.

A Rope Dropper’s Best Friend!

Seriously helpful when planning a day at Universal! Wait times from the app are way more accurate and the tool itself is simple and easy to use! Really helped us maximize our time!

Amazing Line Wizadry

I’ve used Touring Plans for years and it never fails to give the best park experience with amazingly accurate wait times. Highly suggest following the plan precisely and you’ll have a great day with minimal waits.

Not user friendly

Love the crowd calendar but the touring plans are just NOT user friendly. I cannot find a single plan that takes you thru the Harry Potter attractions from park to park. I can only select IOA or Studios.

Gives me anxiety

This started with the The concept of unofficial guide of USF recommending the Lines app. I of course Found the WDW app and couldn’t navigate the app without a subscription to realize it was ONLY WDW. So now I have a subscription to both. Which I don’t need. Then I tried to use the tour plans. 2 day, 2 park. However they only say “2 day, 2 park, day 1, part 2”. What happened to Day 1, part 1? It wasn’t in the other park section (I checked both USF and IOA). Then I tried to make my own following the stops in the plan in the book but these custom plans don’t allow you to change the park to make your own 2-park guide. Also the most optimal time to ride Hagrids, on early admin hours is first and is still 75 minutes? Makes no sense. Then all the other rides that day have a 1-7 minute wait. I thought the early hours would allow my first ride to go faster?
Too frustrating. I’m going to rid the guide out of the book and follow that. I now have spent $$ on two apps I won’t use. Fabulous.
