Let’s talk tech - aka the actually useful apps on your phone that keep your Disney trip feeling magical (instead of like a meltdown waiting to happen).

In today’s episode, I’m diving into the must-have Disney World apps and other tech that help me avoid meltdowns (mine and my toddler’s), minimize the chaos, and yes - even enjoy my trip. 

This isn’t your typical “download the My Disney Experience app and pray” episode. I’m sharing the full stack - from the best Disney World app to track Lightning Lanes for you (because I don’t have time to refresh a screen while wrangling a juice box), to the surprisingly handy tool that helps me build my entire Walt Disney World planning spreadsheet on-the-go.

In this episode, I’m covering:

  • The Disney World app I call the babysitter for your Lightning Lanes - and why you’ll never plan a trip without it again.
  • My not-so-glamorous hack for turning Google Sheets into a magical Walt Disney World planning spreadsheet (that actually stays updated and isn’t scribbled on with crayon).
  • The one Disney planning app I recommend if you just want someone (or something) else to deal with 6 a.m. dining reservations.
  • The best Disney World app to help you skip more lines, carry less junk, and show up to Magic Kingdom.
  • And, the airport Starbucks app trick that makes me feel like a genius every single time.

If your current Disney planning app strategy is “I pinned some stuff once,” don’t worry. I got you.

What’s your go-to tech for keeping Disney chaos under control? Let me know over on IG:  @somewhereworthwhile.
