Universal Orlando releases a mobile app – A look at all of Florida's official ...
Both the SeaWorld and Universal apps offer some of the same and different features. One of guests most requested features, ride wait times, is available on the SeaWorld app but not Universal’s. But many features on both apps, such as the mapping functions and wait times on the SeaWorld app, are disabled unless it detects you are in the park.
Although Disney has an iPhone app for Disneyland Paris, they don’t currently offer one for their U.S. parks. Instead, they suggest guests with phones other than Verizon go to m.disneyworld.com . This mobile optimized site site offers attraction and dining information, park hours and the ability to make dining reservations. The wait times on their paid Verizon app are up-to-the-minute, but the mobile site offers general times such as “See Now” “High Demand” or “Moderate”.
Here are some of the features of Universal Orlando’s new app:
I know these are designed to be used in the park on phones, but I was hoping that the apps would also be iPad-ified and work properly on the larger screen. For anyone wondering, they aren’t. Of course, you can run iPhone apps on an iPad, but it’s only in the native iPhone sized screen.
Oh well… they’re still fun to play with and I’m happy the parks are releasing these. WDW needs to get on the ball and release something besides a mobile webpage!

If the pin is coming from another location or country where there is NOT a Disney Resort then the pin may be counterfeit or a "scrapper".
