In this episode of the Disney Travel Secrets Show, your hosts and best-selling authors Rob & Kerri Stuart break down the 5 most overlooked features in the My Disney Experience app — and how to use them before you even set foot in the park.

Here's what we're unpacking this week:

📍 How to track Character Meet & Greet locations in real time
📸 How to find PhotoPass Magic Shot locations using the app's filter — and why you must ask for them
🛍️ Merchandise Mobile Checkout — skip the crazy lines at World of Disney in Disney Springs
🚻 How to quickly locate restrooms, Baby Care Centers, and First Aid without wandering the park
ℹ️ The Guest Services hub hiding inside the app — and why it's more useful than you think

We also sound off on the $219 peak one-day Magic Kingdom ticket price — is Disney really pricing out the middle class, or is the internet overreacting? (Spoiler: it's complicated.) Plus, Rob has thoughts about Disney's recent partnership with a certain NFL wife and her very... colorful podcast.

Whether you're a first-time Disney World visitor or a seasoned Annual Passholder, these app tips will help you do more and scroll less — so you can stay present and soak in every magical moment.
