MouseWait

[elizabethswann]

Does anyone else use the MouseWait application on the iPod/iPhone? I recently downloaded it onto my iPod and I love lurking through it, especially the Disneyland secrets and someday I can try the Hidden Mickey's list. Anyone use it and have a few tips or feedback on it?

This is the first I've heard of it. I'll ask Mouseoholic if she's seen it yet. If not, I'll bet she'll download it!

I have it. I have not really played around with it much. However it is a bit tough to use. Not the most user friendly app out there. I also have the free WDW Wait Times. My complaint with that is that the times are really not very accurate. I have yet to ever hear of a 40 minute wait for the Jungle Cruise. A really great app that I have found is the WDW Maps one. It gives you all of the rehabs that are scheduled to take place, phone numbers for Disney, and the latest news. It is a fantastic app to have!

I think the MouseWait one is a bit more accurate for the most part but you're able to update the wait times according to what the signs say. I didn't notice that until I clicked on Star Tours and saw that you're able to change the wait times. I do love that it has all the restaurants around DLR/DCA/DTD so it's helpful for me there since I want to see the menus before I go to a new restaurant.

I have had this app since I got my iphone. I don't use it much but sometimes I open it and just see what the wait times are. I really like the Matterhorn web-cam feature. There is a camera on the top of the HoJo and it pans every 10 seconds or so and shows the Paradise Pier area, Matterhorn, and about 2 or 3 other views. I like when you can see California Screamin' go around the loop...sigh

I looked at the Matterhorn cam and I didn't get a chance to see California Screamin' go around the loop. I came close when it went up the second lift hill that leads to the loop.

Maybe they have changed the angle on the camera. I haven't been on the app in awhile, I've been too busy

Does anyone know if there is something like this for WDW as well? And also, will it work for an iPod Touch? I don't have an iPhone, but I dunno if I would have the wifi to use it.

[elizabethswann]

I don't think there's one for WDW as far as I know but I'm sure there are people that are trying to ask for one!

For us iPhone users we are sunk for a good WDW app. The best one out there is for Verizon and it was made by Disney. Not only does it give you accurate wait times but you can locate characters and bunch of other cool stuff. If work did not pay for my phone I would jump on the Verizon wagon.

I have a free one called WDW Wait Times...it isn't as nice or as user friendly as MouseWait but it is for WDW nonetheless...I would imagine it would work for an itouch.
