A friend recommend thst I purchase the Touring Plans app to help with reservations and fast passes. Is it just me or is it very difficult to navigate? I have gotten some responses for dining reservations but unfortunately, not when we can make them? Is it supposed to help you find fast passes also? What am I doing wrong?

It's not a FP finder per se it just lets you see what FP are available on what day. I usually just use the Touring Plans site where you can select your day rather than page through day after day. This came in handy when I was nearing my 60 day mark to see when I'd be able FOP. I have gotten a few ADR's using their Dining finder, you do have to be fast when you get the notification because they go fairly quick.

I did download the app just now so I could see what you were referring to and I think I'll stick with the site.

I use it alert me of possible reservation openings for meals, for crowd levels, for scheduling my days, and I absolutely love the room finder feature where you can see what kind of view a particular room has along with the details about that room. I use it for a lot of other things too but those are my favorites.

I use the website for those functions. Not sure if they are available in the app or not. I mostly use the app when we are AT Disney.
