Updated My Disney Experience App Poll

[AngiTN]

Android was apparently updated a month or more ago. iOS was just updated this week.



I miss the good old days of Palm Pilots and other Palm PDAs, because you could do exactly that, go backwards. You could actually pick almost any version. Plus, you had direct access to the memory, like a hard drive on your computer. Sigh Somehow, we have taken a step backwards from the late 90s.

Andriod wasn't updated a month ago to this current version. It was done on 3/29 (I checked my app update release date to be sure)

I haven't tried with MDE but I know I've had the option to undo an update on my Andriod, at least with some apps.

I can't even open the new app. I guess I will use the website for our trip.

I don't actually have an Android phone, but an article that I was reading said that it was available previously. Maybe I misread, and they said last month. Or maybe it was only available earlier for certain Android makers/OS. They actually do that on Android, which is kind of weird. What brand of Android phone do you have?

Some Android may allow undo, but iOS does not.

Mine is Samsung. The latest operating system was released on Friday, so a couple days after the MDE update

ehhh... middle of the road? It's easier to find some things (making some dining reservations for instance but it's still too much of a hassle to stalk ADRs on the app) The sliding bar on the first page to select the different views is nice but the font is so large and there's no hints to indicate that you can even switch views, let alone determine what views are available. The views are still too busy (just give me the reservation name and time and number - I don't need a picture, location or post that takes up 3/4 of my screen!

I'm seeing this problem all over with apps these days though - UI designs are completely backwards now.

My android, a Samsung, updated to something very close to the current version well before the end of March. I don't remember exactly when it was but we went to Disney on February 24th and it was at least two months before that. Opening to the map feature is very prominent so I am certain of this.
It changed again this last update but very minimally.

Android had this updated style since 2016-12-08 (v4.01). The latest version for Android (v4.5) dated 2017-03-29 only added your Room number to the app.

It definitely was this updated style for my marathon trip in early January

So I shouldn't update it then? I just logged in today to get our reservation numbers and it told me there wasn update but I didn't go do it!

 

[Amelia :)]

I like it!

That explains why I didn't notice a major difference on my phone.
But it doesn't explain why I didn't notice my iPad was very different from my phone for the past few months.
Clearly, I just use the things and didn't find it all that awkward to go between them. And I do, often. In the room I use the iPad all the time but in the parks my phone

I wish I could vote. It crashes on my iPhone every time I start the app. Completely unusable. Hope they fix it. We leave in 2 weeks. Do we need to report these issues? If so where would we do that?

There are many reports so they know but I think it never hurts to "up the numbers" so to speak. More users impacted, more important it is. There is a contact number for their Tech dept on the Contact Us page on the website

And worse case, you use the browser on your phone and go to the website instead of using the app

Android here. It changed a while back; I thought it was very subtle and not bad at all. Can't say I love it or hate it.

This morning I got a prompt to update MDE on my Android. I think I'll hold off.

A new iOS (iPhone/iPad) version was released today. If you were having issues, try updating.

 

[DaisyJ]

For those who haven't noticed much of a difference what platform or you using it on? I have an iPhone and it is almost completely different

The new app on the iphone is completely different from the old one. It is terrible, clunky and extremely hard to navigate.

Another new version? My app just updated to this terrible new one two weeks ago.

Mine just updated to version 4.5.1 today, but it looks the same as the update from 2 weeks ago.

 

[erionm]

Another new version?

If you re-read the thread, so people can't even launch the app. My post was specifically to them.

My app just updated to this terrible new one two weeks ago.

I find it quite easy to navigate the current version.

I do not like the adr search om it.
