Which app for Disneyland Paris?
Five iPhone apps to prepare and live a visit, compared on what each one announces in its App Store listing. No ranking: the right one depends on what you want to do.
This page is written by the publisher of ParkPulse, one of the five: read it with that in mind.
By what you need
Which one, depending on what you want to do?
Pick what matters to you: the answer fits in two lines.
Buy tickets, manage my hotel or Disney Premier Access
The official Disneyland Paris app. It is the only one that does: no independent app sells tickets or fast access.
Book a table
The official app, again. If the restaurant is full, ParkPulse can watch the date and tell you when a table opens up; the booking is then completed with Disneyland Paris. How the table alert works.
Just see the wait times
All five show them. Wait Times: Disneyland Paris sticks to that; MagiPark and Magic Guide add a map and alerts. Wait times in ParkPulse.
Be told when a queue drops
MagiPark (including Single Rider queues, and when a ride stops or restarts), Magic Guide with its paid Magic Guide+ option, and ParkPulse with a threshold per ride.
Have my day organised for me
ParkPulse: it builds the plan around your group and rearranges it during the visit. The official app offers recommendations and a list of favourites. The day planner.
I have an Android phone
The official app. ParkPulse exists on iPhone only.
My iPhone does not have iOS 18
The official app (iOS 15.1) or MagiPark (iOS 15.2). Magic Guide and Wait Times need iOS 17.2, ParkPulse iOS 18.
One by one
The five apps
The official app first, then the others in alphabetical order.
Disneyland Paris, the official app
Euro Disney Associés SCA
The park’s own app. Tickets, hotel booking, Disney Premier Access, table booking and meal ordering, wait times, show times, interactive map, Annual Pass benefits. Free, in eight languages, on iPhone, iPad and Android. For anything you buy or book, this is the one.
Magic Guide: Disneyland Paris
VersaEdge Software, LLC
Interactive maps of both parks with wait times on the pins, park hours and restaurant information. Wait times are crowd-sourced: visitors report them. The paid Magic Guide+ option adds alerts, weather and Apple Watch, and removes the ads.
MagiPark for Disneyland Paris
Jean-Luc Dagon
An independent app centred on queues: wait times, rides interrupted or closed, map, Live Activity on the Lock Screen, notifications when a ride stops or restarts and when a queue drops below your limit, Single Rider included. Free, with an optional tip.
ParkPulse
Christopher Hardeman
This site’s app. It starts from your day rather than from the list of rides: a plan built around your group and rearranged during the visit, wait times compared with their usual level, queue and table alerts, map, widgets, Live Activity and Apple Watch. Free, with no ads, in French and English. Its limits: iPhone only, iOS 18 at least, and it is the newest of the five (September 2026).
Wait Times: Disneyland Paris
VersaEdge Software, LLC
The simplest: ride wait times for both parks, and nothing else announced. Free.

Finally
Do you have to pick just one?
No. The official app remains essential for tickets, bookings and everything official: no independent app replaces it, ParkPulse included.
An independent app comes on top, for what you look at ten times a day: the queues, and what you do next.
