Magic Guide: Universal Orlando Reviews

I love MagicGuide and made the additional purchase for the extras. My only complaint is updating MagicGuide . There are several things which need correcting because of something closing, restaurants adding food to their menu, or changing prices. I like this layout better than the official Universal App. Easier to look at and see the food locations and menus. I do use this for meal planning so it would be great if it was up to date. Thank you!

I couldn't have done Universal without it! Showed me exactly where I was and how to get to where I wanted. The food button with all the menus, I mean the best! GET MagicGuide it will be the best trip! Oh and the wait times too,

Great tool that provides everything from wait times to interactive maps. Very helpful

This is a pretty good app for navigating around the Universal Properties, worth the exception of its coverage of Volcano Bay which is somewhat lacking. Perhaps this will be corrected in the future.

The only thing worth while is the map. The wait times are completely off and the menu items for the food places are completely wrong and out of date.

So annoyed I paid for the Apple Watch upgrade and it doesn’t work on there. It was working a couple days ago. Please fix ASAP. I’ve tried restarting phone and watch with no luck.

MagicGuide really helped us a lot in the park

Apple Watch app does not work, don’t waste your money in MagicGuide.

It’s not. All the ads! 🤦‍♂️

What a helpful tool.

I just spent two days trying to use MagicGuide. The maps on it are VERY general and lack any detail, showing mostly just major rides but missing a LOT of details. The map SHOULD use GPS to show where you are in the park but it doesn't. The food guide only shows fast food options and even then misses a few of them. I wanted to eat a real meal but it was not showing Mythos Restaurant even though I was right across from it! (Mythos is one of the best food options there, BTW.) Someone SHOULD make an app that does the job i had expected this to, but I found that this one is a major disappointment. I should have listened to my daughters, who had asked why I bothered buying it after seeing how useless this company's Disneyland app was.

Don't pay attention to Jocaroth's comments. MagicGuide can do all the things Jocaroth says it can't (except for an ability to log the rides you've ridden). MagicGuide and the one for Disney World is awesome! The ability to look at all of the restaurants and their menus and prices is amazing and saved us a lot of time walking around! The wait times are user loaded, so if you walk by an attraction and notice a wait time update it in MagicGuide this way it is more accurate. 5 star app!

This has everything you need to have a great experience at Universal. It shows where you are on the map. It shows the wait times for every attraction. It shows the menus with prices for every restaurant. It shows you what is closest from your location. It shows where you can find the food that you were looking for. The maps are great. I couldn't imagine doing Universal without it.

The map feature was the only one worth using and a few times it showed us in the water or another section of the park. Don't count on the wait times being accurate. We walked to the other side of the park to ride MiB ride (said the wait time was 50 minutes) but found the ride was closed. I reported it closed on MagicGuide and it never updated. I tried it a few times and it finally showed up at 120+ minutes (not closed). I use an app for Busch Gardens (Williamsburg) that is FREE that's keep updated much better than this one for $3.99. I'm submitting a request for refund from Apple.

I have both the WDW and Universal Studios apps and I absolutely love them. So far I've only been using the dining and maps portions for planning our upcoming trip to both parks and they're worth every penny. Speaking of dining, I sent VersaEdge an email two days ago asking about possible a Volcano Bay menu update and just like that, today I see the menu! If the GPS map works half as good it will be icing on the cake for me! Well done guys!

MagicGuide not only shows you the map of the park but also guide you through the park and tells you waiting time for a ride. Yes, the restrooms location are missing from the free version. I assume Universal studios did not pay for MagicGuide and they did, that will be so unfair that they couldn't provide their customers with MagicGuide for free considering the insane cost of getting into the park. MagicGuide is awesome.

I use MagicGuide every time I go to Florida and I would never want to deal with the crowds without it. I also check the line times throughout the day in the days just prior to our trips so we know what are the busiest times and how to plan around crowds. MagicGuide is SO handy while at the park but also a very valuable planning tool so you can make the most of your day at the park!

Was glad to find and use MagicGuide. Spent 2 days at the park and found this very useful. Wait times. Ride height minimums. Restaurant guides. All were helpful. A GPS feature might be helpful but watch out the Disney App that uses GPS uses ALOT of battery and FAST. Wait times appear to rely on users so please submit as often as you can to help us all.

It was great to have a map and wait time at my fingertips! Loved that part. I paid for the premium because I understood that I would be able to see where I was on the map. But that is not how it works. As far as I can see the basic is the same as premium so stick to the basic. Great app. Thanks.

MagicGuide allows you to see what the wait times are looking like so you can decide where to head to next. You can also customize it for your favorite rides. It helped us make numerous decisions allowing us to ride all the rides (some multiple times)!!
