OmniQueue is a personal theme-park next-ride planner. Tell it what you care about, where you are, and when you need to leave. It builds a short ticket: the next stop to walk to, plus a handful of rides after that. When waits change, or you pin a different stop, the rest of the plan rewrites around it. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Rank every attraction Skip / Low / Medium / High, or set a 0–100 score • Star must-dos so those rides get worked in first • Mark something ridden so it does not keep coming back • Pick the land or ride you are standing at • Set arrival and leave times so the plan fits your day • Pull to refresh unofficial live standby waits HOW IT WORKS Routing runs entirely on your iPhone from a bundled model. Live wait times are unofficial estimates from ThemeParks.wiki. Nothing is uploaded to OmniQueue servers. There is no account, no tracking, and no in-app purchases. A few things OmniQueue is not: it is not an official park app, it does not sell Lightning Lane or tickets, and it does not promise shorter lines. Use your own judgment, and check posted waits in the park. OmniQueue is an independent product. It is not affiliated with, authorized by, sponsored by, or endorsed by The Walt Disney Company or any of its affiliates. Attraction names appear only to identify rides. Wait times are unofficial and can be wrong, stale, or missing.
