Summer is upon us!
Stop refreshing. Start riding.
Standby watches the lines at 20+ theme parks worldwide and alerts you the instant your favorite rides drop below your target wait time. Set it once, put your phone away, and be present with the people you're with.
WHY RIDERS LOVE STANDBY
Wait Time Alerts — Set your max wait (say 20 min) and get notified the instant it drops. Works across 20+ parks worldwide.
Show Time Reminders — Get reminded 5, 15, or 30 minutes before any show or fireworks. Never miss the last showing again.
Line Snipe — Get notified when rides go down AND when they reopen. That brief window after reopening? The lines are shortest. You'll know before the crowds do.
Live Activities — Real-time wait times on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. No need to open the app.
Widgets — Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets showing your favorites, crowd levels, and park hours at a glance.
TRACK YOUR JOURNEY
Passport & Ride Logging — Log every ride and track your theme park journey. Earn badges for each park, and see your complete history with weather conditions at the time of each ride.
Visit Tracking — Automatic GPS trail mapping shows exactly where you walked during each park visit. See your route, distance, and timeline — a digital scrapbook of every visit.
Crowd Levels — Real-time crowd conditions at a glance. Know before you go whether it's a light day or a mob scene.
Alert Profiles — Create park-specific alert setups that activate automatically when you arrive. Different parks, different strategies — all hands-free.
SUPPORTED PARKS
We provide real-time wait times for 20+ theme parks worldwide, including:

BUILT DIFFERENT
We're not affiliated with any theme park. We built Standby because the official apps are... poorly designed to be nice. Not save you time. Standby has one job: get you on more rides with less waiting.

I’m giving a 5 star review for the app because it’s new, so I don’t want to hurt its growth as I want to see it expand. I think it’s a missed opportunity that parks like Cedar Point haven’t been added yet, as this app primarily appeals to enthusiasts as opposed to the average visitor of a park, so adding those parks should be a priority. Additionally, only allowing one notification on the free plan is likely going to limit future growth/use of the app. I understand that the app’s development costs time and money and there should be a way for the developer to earn money from this, but I worry that paywalling this feature will restrict who uses this app and lead to less people utilizing the app. These are meant to be constructive feedback points since I’m really excited to see the future of this app!
Developer Response
Rilaye,Thanks a ton for the feedback. I really appreciate it, and I agree about adding more parks. Currently I am working on an update that will likely be pushed in the coming days. It will allow me to remotely add theme parks across the globe without needing to update the app.As for the 1 active notification, I do understand why 1 may not seem like a lot because it’s not. The struggle is I would rather have an ad free experience for everyone, rather than a free tier with ads. Giving users a taste of Standby or even just using it for a few days while on vacation, means the world. However it’s very difficult to monetize the app without advertisements everywhere. Thanks again for the feedback!
No ads!

Saved me about an hour each day at Disney, didn’t go to universal but I can image it’d do the same. Was very simple to use.

When I open the app, it by default navigate me to the park I’m inside of. Simple user interface, solid alerts.
