EPbuddy now speaks Dutch, and picks your language for you. Dutch joins English, German and French, and on first launch the app follows your device's language instead of always starting in English. You can still change it any time in Settings, where the language picker is now a single row instead of a wall of buttons. Also fixed: rides closed because of weather or frost were showing an unknown status. They now have their own label and icon, and sit above fully closed rides in the list, since a weather closure often reopens the same day.

A new look, a rebuilt opening hours calendar, and a reworked Showtimes tab — plus a round of fixes based on bug reports. The light theme has been redesigned around the deep navy of the EPbuddy icon, so the app feels at home in the park from first ride to last. Dark mode is untouched, and the theme can be switched anytime in Settings. Navigation and toolbar controls throughout the app now use Liquid Glass. The opening hours calendar is completely new. Every day shows its full opening and closing time, hotel guest early access hours are no longer cut off, and tapping a day spells out both windows with room to breathe. The calendar now shows a loading indicator instead of briefly reporting the park as closed while it fetches. The Showtimes tab has been rebuilt from the ground up. Swipe between Today and Tomorrow, tap a show to unfold every performance time, and use the location button to jump straight to the venue on the map. A search bubble now sits next to the day switch — tap it anytime to find a show instantly, with smoother open and close animations. The keyboard tucks away with a tap outside the field, and switching into Showtimes from elsewhere in the app now animates like every other tab. Wait times on the Europa-Park map now update live every 30 seconds instead of freezing at whatever they were when the map opened, and jumping to a specific ride or show now works reliably on the first try. Also improved: ride sensation bars are colour-coded by intensity with a corrected scale, Virtual Line tickets show the correct status colour again, and open ride detail sheets stay in sync as new wait times arrive. Thanks for reporting bugs — many of the fixes above came directly from that feedback. This version requires iOS 18.6 or later. Support for iOS 17 has been dropped.

Never get lost again! Version 1.5 brings interactive park maps with turn-by-turn navigation to guide you straight to your favourite rides — no more wandering. And once you're there, point your camera at attractions to unlock AR overlays with live wait times appearing right in front of you. Navigation and AR work when you're in the park, so get ready for the best visit yet!
