New Cedar Point Smartphone App

I love how stuff we talked about, suggested and envisioned eight, nine, even ten years ago is finally becoming reality.

(Yeah, I'm a f'n prophet)

The folks who did the mobile app are the same folks I worked with at SEAS. They do great work.

I just love that my pass is now linked to my watch. Show wrist - *boop* - enter park.

We found the wait times and ride closures were more than a little off on Friday and Saturday. I'm sure as they work the kinks out, it'll be a great feature.

I have a pretty good idea of how they could make those more accurate, for very little cost.

Might as well ask, what's the idea?

Gnomes that spy on you in line. :)

Always watching... waiting... judging.

I'm really impressed with the new app. I found the wait times to be good, for the most part. Some were a little off. But I liked how I got a free drink offer while I was in the park. I hope they continue to do more cool offers. And I like how I can view all my FunPix in the app. I stored my pass in the app, but I don't really see that as a replacement to a card. I have never forgotten my pass yet. It takes about as much effort to pull my pass out of my wallet as it does to open the app. This is just about the perfect app for the park.
