Magic Guide for Disneyland Reviews

Downloaded MagicGuide but it won’t show up on my Apple Watch.

Just returned from Disneyland a week ago. MagicGuide had several inaccurate wait times, it showed the Haunted Mansion was closed for a day and it wasn’t even shut down for a minute. Disneyland is the best app, you can manage your tickets and reservations, the virtual queue and mobile food orders very easily. I would not spend money on any other app.

i got MagicGuide thinking it would tell me where everything is yet it doesn’t even have most of the rides i want to go on. such as Stitches Escape and Laugh Floor and yet if it does have such place it isn’t the right location i would wind up at the end of magic kingdom trying to go to “it’s a small world” so please atleast try to put some of the rides in the right location!

This used to be a great resource for dining but the menus haven’t been updated in ages. Show up to Cafe Orleans expecting to order the crepes? Sorry, they haven’t been on the menu in months. Save your money and pass on MagicGuide, you’re better off looking up menus on the Disneyland website.

It tells me to buy the premium pass on my iPhone

I was sure this is a joke! MagicGuide was you to pay $5.99 to get “premium” features like bathroom information. This is nuts!

Great app but it needs to be updated with block out dates. Disney changed block out dates this year to where each park has different days. Meaning you’re blocked out of Disneyland but that same day you’re not blocked out of DCA. Well MagicGuide shows “No Passed blocked” for Disneyland on all the days you actually are blocked. Can be confusing for some if they don’t have the other app to check.

MagicGuide works well enough, but the dining portion has not been updated for quite some time.

This is a really great app, but you shouldn’t have to get a premium subscription to see where the bathroom is. I have a kid and she needs to use the bathroom a lot so MagicGuide is not very helpful with that. Besides that MagicGuide is Amazing!

Just like the Magic Guide for Disney World this application serves as a great companion for those who are interested in having information on wait times for rides, dining guides for restaurants, an map that covers and details the whole park and a listing of park hours. MagicGuide like the other Magic Guide has a more retro old fashioned design with dark colors but it's simplicity is useful for those of all ages and allows for quick management for those who plan their daily activities around the park. Users can create favorite rides, as well as add specific dining establishments you want to visit to the guide and more. Every visitor to the Disneyland Park should have this application.

Bought MagicGuide for the family's first trip to Disneyland to ensure we did it get lost and new current information about queue lengths etc. We went on the very busy Christmas week so. It got a major grilling during queues etc. Generally MagicGuide performed well providing generally accurate (although often pessimistic times) of the big rides. As the apps information is provided by people actually queuing I can understand why 10 actual minutes in a queue actually feels like 20+. MagicGuide helped us find where we were in the park at all times and was a life saver to identify nearby restrooms (we have a 3 year old) and rides and other features. My only gripe was that MagicGuide crashed quite regularly requiring it to be opened again. This happened quite regularly 10x during the day perhaps. Hopefully this will be addressed in future updates. The other issue is that it drained my iPhone 4S phone by the end of the day (a lot of GPS and data streaming) so again understandable.

To summarize, if you want a great guide to the best park in the world then MagicGuide is the one to get. Much better than a paper map as it was always knows where you are and easily locates you on the map.

Possible improvements would be a more graphically appealing map with some features and landmarks would be helpful.

Nice & simple runs smoothly

by Alexander Delgado2

Very good.

by LAZ-E

It actually works right, it’s polished, has a nice interface, an excellent Apple Watch app…

Besides wait times, it has extensive restaurant menus too.

Its the best one I’ve used and the developers have maintained and updated it for years. I’ve used MagicGuide for many years. Good job!

More useful than the Disneyland app

by Sacasacasac

This gets a time and a date

by Muzicluversmom

This is a very useful app but needs to be updated very badly. There are new restaurants that are not on here.

Very helpful and worth it if you’re going to be at Disney land

by Katthecool009

I love MagicGuide so much and even though Covid 19 is keeping us from going to Disney land, I’m still loving the pictures you put on here

by Jpccab

Really helpful. I find that’s it’s updated a lot. I think it’s a must for anyone that doesn’t want to carry a map around at the park. It’s also one of the best apps for planning you’re day and dining options.
