Is there an app that you consider an absolute lifesaver as well as a total headache? Well, Disney World app, we’re looking at you.
Like all apps, the My Disney Experience app can go through its little glitches and frustrating moments, but of course, we do love how easy-breezy it can make our day at the parks. From managing Lighting Lanes to booking table service reservations, and so much more, this app is the ultimate tool to have during your Disney vacation. However, one of our DFB team members recently came across a message when opening up the app that you may encounter. Here’s what you need to know!
Â
Upon opening up the My Disney Experience app, a message popped up on the screen disclosing ‘important information’, asking users to update the app in order to “take full advantage of all of the features”.

When reading the current description in the “What’s New” section of the app store, it states, “We fixed bugs and improved overall app performance.” We assume this is just a routine update to get rid of some of the glitches we’ve seen occur in the app. However, the app is asking users to update it currently and we have a feeling this message will be popping up again soon.

With Disney’s new Lightning Lane Premier Pass launching on October 30th, 2024, the app will more than likely ask users to update it again in order to add this new feature. Lots of new additions are constantly being added to the My Disney Experience app, so keeping it up to date is essential to make the most of its capabilities.
One of the most current addditons features the ability to refresh the calendar when making a park pass reservation. This is especially helpful for Disney World Annual Passholders who require a reservation when visiting the parks on a non-Good-To-Go day.

I read this and thought “hang on did they seriously add park pass reservations to the app!?? After they got rid of 90 percent of their use??” No, they didn’t. It’s just opening in the website like always. So the refresh calendar button isn’t an app update. It’s a website update.
