Iphone app for Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL

So after seeing the commercial on TV for the Verizon Wireless Disney Mobile app I decided I needed that for my upcoming vacation to WDW. The only thing is, Iphone is not compatible with that specific app, even though I do have Verizon. My next task was to find a good similar iphone app, and I did and will be testing on my trip to WDW in September. The app is by UndercoverTourist.com, Disney World Wait Times, Dining, and Maps Free. I think apps like this only work well the more people that use it and update the wait times. I will be seeing how accurate it is during a low crowd time of the year. I would like for my customers to get the most out of their vacation, as well as myself, and I believe that an app like this could help me and you plan your day at the parks.


Update: The Application was somewhat helpful, it doesn't seem to update very fast though. Also, If you are taking advantage of the Extra Magic Hours it says the rides are "closed" so you won't know the wait times during that time in the park. If you have a Smart Phone through Verizon (NOT an iphone) they do have an application called Mobile Magic and it's FREE. If you have an iphone you can go the the website m.disneyworld.com , it gives you some very basic info on the Rides but until they come out with an app for the Verizon Iphone users this will have to do.
