## What is Park Pulse?

Park Pulse shows live wait times for every ride, show, and character meet across all four Walt Disney World parks: Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom. Free, fast, and glanceable.

BUILT FOR IPHONE DUO
Unfold your iPhone Duo and Park Pulse uses the whole screen:
• Flat and sideways, your ride list sits beside one big live park map
• Tap a ride or a pin and the map flies to it, with that ride's card on top
• Half open like a book, today's timeline is on one page and the next ride to head for is on the other
• Upright, the ride list fills the screen, two rides to a row
• Controls sit in the side column, low and within thumb reach
Folded, it's a full iPhone app on the cover screen.

FREE: SEE THE PARKS LIVE
• Live wait times for all 4 parks, refreshed every 60 seconds
• Color-coded waits so you can read the park at a glance
• Ride details: fun facts, height requirements, Lightning Lane pricing, single-rider waits
• Search any attraction instantly
• Park hours for all four parks
• Works on spotty park Wi-Fi: last-known waits are cached

PRO: BEAT THE LINES ($1.99 ONCE)
• Route Planner: pick your must-rides and get the order that minimizes waiting, with real walking times
• Wait Forecasts: hourly predictions and the best time to ride every attraction
• Today's Charts: each ride's wait curve, so you can spot the dips
• Wait-Drop Alerts: a notification when your ride falls under your threshold
• Live Activities: a ride's live wait on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island
• Rope Drop Countdown: a live timer to park opening in your Dynamic Island
• Widgets: favorites and shortest waits on your Home and Lock Screen
• Apple Watch: your favorites and the lowest waits on your wrist
• Friends & Family: link phones so your group shares trips, plans, favorites and rides
• Next Up picks, Ride Face-off, Park Compare, Park Hopper, favorites, filters, Trip Planner, directions, and Dark Mode

One payment of $1.99, yours forever. No subscription, no ads, no account, and no tracking: your data stays on your device and in your own iCloud. If you link phones with Friends & Family, shared items are kept in the iCloud of the person who started the group.

### 1.2 — 2026-11-09

Friends & Family: link your group's phones and a change on one shows up on all of them, usually within seconds. Trips, daily plans, favorites, rides and Queue Clues high scores stay in sync. No accounts, just iCloud. (Pro)

A bigger view on iPhone Duo: open it flat and sideways for your ride list beside one big live park map. Tap a ride or a pin and the map flies to it.

Rode It!: mark a ride done with one tap on its details page, and tap Rode It Again! when you go back for more.

Today's Plan: on a trip day, your picks and their live waits sit at the top of the list, and one tap adds them to your route. (Pro)

Park Hopper days: plan more than one park in a single trip day. (Pro)

More Queue Clues: Kids mode for younger players, high scores to beat, and 60, 90 or 120 second rounds. (Pro)

### 1.1 — 2026-11-06

Queue Clues: a guessing game for the line. Hold the phone to your forehead while your group gives clues for the ride, show or snack on screen. Tip down when you get it, tip up to pass. A deck for every park. (Pro)

Trip countdown: add your dates and Park Pulse counts down to your Walt Disney World trip.

Opens to your park: walk into a park and Park Pulse switches to it.

Better widgets: they now refresh on their own through the day, every size has the new card look, and the small widget steps through rides with a tap.
