My Disney Experience just got an update. Did yours?
Issue 1 · Oct 6–12, 2026. The current My Disney Experience build is described as bringing general app improvements to help with planning ahead and discovering more around Walt Disney World Resort, without naming individual changes. Google Play rolls builds out over several days, so the latest listing may not appear for everyone at the same time.

These are the three changes in My Disney Experience 8.25 that stand out in the developer's update notes and on its Google Play listing this week.
- 01General planning improvements are noted
Google Play says this build includes general app improvements intended to help people plan ahead. The notes do not specify which planning screens or actions were adjusted.
- 02More resort discovery is the stated aim
The notes also say the improvements are intended to help people discover more around Walt Disney World Resort. They do not list newly added places or details.
- 03Park information remains a core feature
The app description lists maps, wait times, park hours, showtimes, and Character schedules. These are existing features, not changes identified in the current notes.
Our call on whether to update, and the link to the official Google Play listing, are on this issue's My Disney Experience page.

Tips
- Check schedules with a strong connection
Before relying on wait times, park hours, or schedules, check that your device has a strong internet connection. The Play description cautions that these details may not update accurately without one. The app also describes a GPS-enabled map and step-by-step directions, which can help with navigation, but connection quality can affect the freshness of live information.
- Review plans with your group
The app description says you can manage tickets, reservations, and plans, and share plans with family and friends. Before a park day, review the information you have entered and make sure the relevant people can see shared plans. The release notes do not say that sharing changed in this build, so treat it as an existing planning tool.
- Look over location and alerts
Location access supports described features such as a GPS-enabled map, while push notifications are optional according to the Play description. If you want to review what the app can access or alert you about, look in your device settings and the app's Settings for location and notification controls. The listing does not provide exact menu paths.
Menu names follow the developer's help pages and can differ slightly between versions and phones.
How we write the digest
Each week we check the Google Play listings of the apps our readers use most: the version number, the update date and the developer's What's new notes. When an app has a new version, we put the developer's update notes and the listing details together on one page, in plain words, with a link to the official Google Play listing. Google and most developers release updates in stages over several days, so a version listed here may not have reached your phone yet. Therapymetric is an independent site and is not affiliated with any developer. This page doesn't read your phone or your Google account, and nothing is installed from here.
FAQ
Is this the official list of My Disney Experience changes?
No. This is an independent site and is not affiliated with Disney. The app’s Google Play page is the authority for its listing and release notes. Here, the available note says the build includes general improvements intended to help with planning ahead and discovering more around Walt Disney World Resort, but it does not give a detailed change list.
Why does Google Play show Open instead of Update?
Google Play rolls builds out over several days, so a listing can show Open while a newer build is still being distributed. That does not necessarily mean anything is wrong with the app. Check the Play listing again later if you want to see whether the update option appears; the release notes do not provide a separate rollout schedule.
Why might wait times or schedules look out of date?
The Play description says wait times, park hours, and schedules may not update accurately without a strong internet signal. Check your device’s connection status and try again when connectivity is stronger. The release note does not identify a specific change to these information tools, so an out-of-date display cannot be attributed to this build from the listing alone.
