WDW Prep Countdown App Reviews

Ive had this app for over a year now. My first trip it worked great. Now it does not automatically countdown. When you go into the app the text is so small its unreadable, also it crashes when you go to the settings. It needs to be updated to get rid of the bugs.

I really like the app for my Disney countdown, but it seems as if every time I open the app, it crashes and doesnt work. Please make an update and fix this bug issue.

I loved the app when I first bought it a year ago. Now it no longer shows the correct countdown, its been stuck on 140 days left to go for two months now. When you open the app the wording is so small now that its simply unreadable.

Update: app no longer works. I used to love how I didnt have to open the app to see the countdown - it displayed on the thumbnail. But now the countdown no longer works. Will display the same number until I open the app and it refreshes. Also no longer adds important dates to my calendar, like dining reservations and fast pass booking dates. Even when it worked, disappointed that it only allows you to input one trip at a time. We are passholders and often have two trips within 60 days, so I was hoping the calendar reminders could help us when planning for each trip. Then again, the calendar didnt even work for that trip. My calendar only showed an event for Magical Express. It did not add any other notifications or events, such as fastpass reservation dates. On the plus side, the stock photos are breathtaking, but without a working calendar function or the ability to track more than one trip, and that even that one trip isnt working as of spring 2026, the app is pretty useless.

The countdown on the home screen icon no longer works at all. Its too bad because I really liked the app at first and the icon is so cute on my home screen. I tried contacting the developer but never received a response. Please fix!!!!

Best App Ever!

Just plugged in our trip dates and our reminders were automatically set! So exciting! Gorgeous photos!!!!

This is a must have app for anyone planning a trip to WDW! Not only does it help build excitement about your upcoming trip, it also helps you plan when to book dining reservations, etc. This is a very well thought out app.

This is a great app! You can add your own pictures to it, and can customize pretty much the entire look of it to suit your own "Disney Side" as they say. The best part is that it is not just a countdown, this app stores away your trip dates and will send you reminders when it is time to do your ADRs, make fast pass reservations, and even get a reservation for lunch at BOG!! I am not aware of any other app that currently does all of that. Also, WDW Prep School is a wonderful website that is jampacked with information for every type of Walt Disney World guest. I highly recommend both the app and the website. Enjoy!

This new App for Disney World is better than the others out there because it adds reminders to your calendar for things specific to Disney World - dates for making restaurant reservations, fast passes for rides, and other things. Its worth a lot more than a dollar. Gracie

My biggest complaint about this app is that it only allows you to input one trip at a time. We are passholders and often have two trips within 60 days, so I was hoping the calendar reminders could help us when planning for each trip. Then again, the calendar didnt even work for that trip. My calendar only showed an event for Magical Express. It did not add any other notifications or events, such as fastpass reservation dates. On the plus side, the stock photos are breathtaking, and I love that I can see the countdown without opening the app. But without a working calendar function or the ability to track more than one trip, the app is pretty useless.

App stopped working after 1 week. Calendar reminder events disappeared from personal calendar. Very dissatisfied and disappointed!! :(

My trip information and important dates arent showing in my calendar. Ive tried to email the developer and havent gotten any response in over a week.

I love this app!! Out of all the countdown clocks this is the best.

If this was a free app, I would recommend it. But its just not even worth it. I have a better countdown app that was free.

If I could give no stars I would. If you want a Disney countdown app. Get Disneys free count down app, and pay the .99 for the full app which includes tips. Apps like this make me mad because they get paid to give you a crappy product and get to keep your money in the process.

Im confused by the negative reviews. I think those users dont know how to use the app or dont realize that is populates important dates right onto your calendar, like when to make ADRs and FP+ reservations. Very helpful in planning our trip.

Great app, love the reminders it puts into my calendar!!!

I love this app and how it lets you know the important dates (like making dining and fast pass reservations). I also love the layout. I just wish it wasnt so expensive (although I think its worth it since I did pay for it.)

This is a fun app that puts important dates into your phones calendar. It was fun to watch the countdown each day!
