Why doesn’t your date and time get held at least a minute or two?? ### 4/5 — Works well *2026-03-28, version 6.1.0* I was able to get reservations at Blue Bayou last time. It is really important to have notifications turned on. You may have to go directly to the Disney app to make the reservation. ### 5/5 — Worth the money *2025-12-26, version 6.1.0* Definitely worth the money. We were able to get every dining and event reservation we were looking for. We will definitely use Stakeout again for our next Disney trips. ### 5/5 — Actually works compared to other similar apps *2025-12-14, version 6.1.0* I downloaded three total apps that all did the same thing and this one worked the best for me. I was able to secure two reservations thanks to Stakeout. ### 5/5 — Blue Bayou in Disneyland 🧐 *2025-11-10, version 6.0.0* The chance of getting a table here is ridiculous! You have to be in one of Disney Hotels to score! Too bad, I used to dine there every visit. I used to run directly there at rope drop and register. Good luck 🍀! ### 5/5 — It worked!!!! *2025-11-03, version 6.0.0* I was struggling to get a BBB reservation because Disney didn’t open the booking when they said they would. I downloaded the app and only did the one free search. 4 days later it opened, stakeout notified me immediately and we have an appointment for my 5yro first thing in the morning. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — I loved. Perfect *2025-11-02, version 6.0.0* It really works. I got the reservation I wanted so much in less than a week. I loved it. ### 2/5 — Robot *2025-10-08, version 5.5.0* I think There is a robocall set up on one of the places I am trying to book. I answer the text immediately when I get it and there is never anything available. ### 5/5 — Great Alert Process *2025-10-03, version 5.5.0* 1st time user and Stakeout notified me of an upcoming Disneyland reservation opening that had been delayed for days ### 5/5 — Success! *2025-09-24, version 5.5.0* Had my app programmed for a hard to get reservation and it came through with same day Space 220 Lounge reservations that I was able to quickly secure! ### 5/5 — Perfect *2025-09-14, version 5.5.0* I don’t leave reviews often, but we are at WDW for my wife’s birthday. Of course, we wanted to visit the new Beak and Barrel but reservations have been impossible since it opened. On a whim, I got this app and set an alert for Beak and Barrel. Within 30 minutes, I got a reservation. This has absolutely made my wife’s day so very much recommend this app. Super easy to use and effective! ### 5/5 — Got the hardest to get reservations! *2025-07-31* This app does work. You may need to be flexible with the hardest to get reservations, and the largest amount of notifications will come through within the week of the booking you are looking for, but it does work. I got the Space 220 Lounge (lots of notifications) and even the Starlight Safari experience. Highly recommend for Disney World! ### 5/5 — Very Useful *2025-07-30* Great service! We use it every trip now! ### 5/5 — amazing *2025-07-21, version 5.4.1* got my request in less than an hr!! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2025-07-01, version 5.4.1* Every single time, they text me with an availability in the timeframe I’ve requested and I’ve been able to get the dining reservation I’ve been looking for! Definitely worth subscribing - if you’re going to the parks and want to get in to some of those hard to get restaurants!! Very easy to use. Highly recommend!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Canceled *2026-08-15, version 7.0.1* I canceled my premium membership and I keep being charged! ### 1/5 — Used to be great now it sucks *2026-05-10, version 6.1.0* We used to use this app twice. A year when we would go to Disneyworld and it would work great. Now I even with the paid subscription we get notifications late and even we we do get a notification the link takes us to the correct page but now we have to reselect the time and date. So by the time I am logged in the reservation is gone. Don’t waste your money ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2026-05-03, version 6.1.0* Downloaded this app. Paid for it. Within 60 days and says I’m not. App is a rip off. ### 1/5 — No sirve *2026-03-02, version 6.1.0* La aplicación me da muchas alertas y siempre voy INMEDIATAMENTE y dice que no está disponible Algo está mal. ### 1/5 — Robot *2025-10-17, version 6.0.0* I think There is a robocall set up on one of the places I am trying to book. I answer the text immediately when I get it and there is never anything available .very disappointing. I can’t get the alert even if I am on my phone at the time. Something needs to be done. ### 1/5 — Não funciona *2025-01-20* Não funciona! Não deu alerta e tinha horário disponível! ### 1/5 — I’m getting alerts for restaurants I didn’t sign up for *2024-10-23, version 5.2.0* When I first downloaded the app, I was logged in under someone else’s email! I didn’t realize it right away, so I deleted some alerts - I’m sorry if I messed up someone else’s! As soon as I realized, I logged out and set up my own account. I’m now logged in under my email and with only one restaurant at Disneyland - but I’m receiving notifications for Disney World restaurants! This is a mess, I’m glad I didn’t pay and I’m deleting it right away. ### 1/5 — Not great *2024-10-07, version 5.2.0* Have been waiting 60 days. Was alerted twice already gone by the time I got my email in. Don’t believe this is a reliable source. ### 1/5 — Worthless app *2024-09-26, version 5.2.0* If I could give zero stars I would. Even if you pay for the app and act immediately, you never get the reservation it’s always gone before you apply. Just another app taking your money with promises of increased chances for dining. ### 1/5 — Didn’t notify me of an available time *2024-04-15, version 5.1.0* I had an active stakeout for a dinner reservation and had no notifications. I just happened to check Disney reservations and got my requested time. I’ve used stakeout in the past with good results, but this experience has not been good. I had paid the $9.99 for multiple choices and got no notifications except the initial “nothing available right now” text. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Game Changer! *2026-05-16, version 6.1.0* This app is a game changer! I used it to get into 2 restaurants in one weekend that I’ve been trying to get into for a year! I can’t believe how easy it was to use and how fast I got my reservations! ### 5/5 — Thank you!! *2026-04-15, version 6.1.0* Thanks for letting me know when Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique appointments became available! ### 5/5 — Works great *2026-04-12, version 6.1.0* Awesome! This works perfectly. It seems to search every couple minutes. I love that you get one free search. I will definitely use again and would definitely pay for the upgrade if I was looking for several reservations. ### 5/5 — Helpful planning tool *2026-03-22, version 6.1.0* Was able to snag hard to get resys with no stress! ### 5/5 — Reservation! *2026-03-21, version 6.1.0* I was able to get a last minute reservation at Sci-fi! ### 5/5 — Thank you!! *2026-03-17, version 6.1.0* Used my alert to get the dining res I wanted when the app was being glitchy and showed no reservations for days. So easy and worked great! ### 5/5 — It worked *2026-03-03* I was skeptical at first as I don’t receive any alerts. To the point I didn’t want to renew the next month. Then I received an alert for an opening, but I wasn’t quick enough to book the time. I went ahead and continued the subscription another month. A few more alerts came through on openings, but again, I wasn’t quick enough. Until yesterday, I received an alert and was immediately on and was able to book a reservation. Couldn’t be happier. My advice is: if you receive an alert, you need to be lightning fast and book immediately. ### 5/5 — I don’t make reviews *2026-02-18, version 6.1.0* I download this & another app to hopefully get a dining reservation. Stakeout, after about 8 days, FOUND THE RESERVATION. I never got notified from the opposing app. But was able to secure a highly sought after reservation. I am GRATEFUL. ### 5/5 — The best *2026-01-07, version 6.1.0* Super easy to use and I’ve gotten 2 hard to get reservations because of this app, really love this one!! ### 5/5 — Technical problems *2025-12-26, version 6.1.0* Technical issues Only 1 alert never worked --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
