## Description copy

Three lengths, written to be quoted as they are. No approval needed to use them
verbatim or cut them down.

### One sentence

Parky is an iPhone companion for Walt Disney World and Disneyland that shows live wait times for every ride, times the line you actually stood in, and keeps every park day afterwards.

### One paragraph

Parky is a theme-park companion for Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort, built for visitors who want one calm board instead of a planning spreadsheet. It shows live wait times and Lightning Lane return windows for every attraction, charts today's wait against a normal day so you can tell a 45-minute morning from a 45-minute afternoon, and times the queue you actually stood in with a Live Activity that keeps counting on your Lock Screen. Everything you ride is stamped into a collection, and every visit is kept on a Pass that adds up your park days, hours inside, longest waits, and the time Lightning Lane actually saved you. Parky is free to download, with an optional Parky Gold subscription at $99.99 a year after a 3-day free trial, or $9.99 a week.

### Full description

A theme-park app usually asks for a plan. Parky asks for a decision: the board
shows the live wait for every ride in the park, next to the Lightning Lane
return window, so the next hour can be settled without opening a spreadsheet or
a map.

The number on the board is only half of it. Every attraction carries a chart of
the whole day — what it is posting now, what it normally posts at this hour, and
when it went down — because a 45-minute wait at ten in the morning and a
45-minute wait at four in the afternoon are not the same number, and one of them
is worth walking away from.

When you do join a line, Parky times the line you actually stood in rather than
the number the board guessed. The timer runs on the Lock Screen and in the
Dynamic Island, so the phone can go back in a pocket, and the entry time winds
back for the queue you joined five minutes before remembering to start it.

Afterwards, the day is kept. Every attraction, show, parade, and fireworks in
both resorts has a hand-drawn stamp that fills in when you ride it, and every
visit becomes a park day on a Pass that adds up over seasons: park days, hours
inside the gates, most-ridden attractions, longest waits, and the hours
Lightning Lane genuinely saved. Nothing is posted anywhere — there is no feed and
no social graph — and park days you never logged can be reconstructed from the
dates and places already in your photo library, with the photos staying on the
device.

## Key features

- Live wait times and Lightning Lane return windows for every ride in all six parks, on one board.
- A full-day chart for each attraction: what it is posting now, what it normally posts at this hour, and when it went down.
- A queue timer that records the wait you actually stood in rather than the number the board guessed, and runs on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island while your phone is in your pocket.
- Entry times you can wind back, so a queue you joined before you remembered to start the timer still ends up honest.
- A hand-drawn stamp for every attraction, show, parade, and fireworks in both resorts, filled in as you ride them.
- A Pass that keeps every visit — park days, hours inside the gates, most-ridden attractions, longest waits, and the hours Lightning Lane saved you — season after season.
- Optional photo-library import that reconstructs park days you never logged, with photos staying on the device.
- Ride alerts that tell you when a wait drops to a number you asked for, so you can put the phone down.

## Screenshots

Twelve unframed captures at 1320 × 2868 — full iPhone 6.9" resolution, no
device bezels, no headline copy, nothing composited on top. The data in them is
a real account against live park boards, not placeholder text.

- [01-live-board-stamp-collection.png](https://parkypass.com/press/screenshots/01-live-board-stamp-collection.png) — **The live board.** Every ride in the park on one board with its current wait and Lightning Lane return window. The stamp beside each ride is filled in once you have ridden it and dashed while you have not.
- [02-day-open-todays-stamps.png](https://parkypass.com/press/screenshots/02-day-open-todays-stamps.png) — **A park day in progress.** With a park day open, the header counts the time spent inside and today's stamps collect along the top as rides are finished.
- [03-day-open-queue-running.png](https://parkypass.com/press/screenshots/03-day-open-queue-running.png) — **Queue timer running.** A running queue timer for Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin, showing elapsed time against both the wait posted at entry and the wait posted now.
- [04-ride-wait-chart.png](https://parkypass.com/press/screenshots/04-ride-wait-chart.png) — **The full-day wait chart.** Space Mountain's whole day: what it is posting now in black, what it usually posts at this hour behind it, and downtime marked in red.
- [05-queue-entry-time-windback.png](https://parkypass.com/press/screenshots/05-queue-entry-time-windback.png) — **Winding the entry time back.** Joined the line before starting the timer? The entry time winds back so the recorded wait stays accurate.
- [06-park-entry-time.png](https://parkypass.com/press/screenshots/06-park-entry-time.png) — **Starting a park day.** Opening a park day, with the entry time defaulting to now and scrollable back for a guest who has already been inside for hours.
- [07-live-activity-lock-screen.png](https://parkypass.com/press/screenshots/07-live-activity-lock-screen.png) — **Live Activity on the Lock Screen.** The queue keeps counting on the Lock Screen, with the wait quoted at entry alongside it, and can be ended without unlocking the phone.
- [08-pass-page.png](https://parkypass.com/press/screenshots/08-pass-page.png) — **The Pass.** The Pass totals a guest's whole history: park days, hours in the parks, rides logged, longest waits, and the time Lightning Lane saved.
- [09-record-top-attractions.png](https://parkypass.com/press/screenshots/09-record-top-attractions.png) — **Top attractions.** Attractions ranked by times ridden, against a count of how many of the 157 on record have been collected.
- [10-record-your-parks.png](https://parkypass.com/press/screenshots/10-record-your-parks.png) — **Your parks.** Park days ranked by park across both resorts, with the date of the most recent visit to each.
- [11-record-longest-waits.png](https://parkypass.com/press/screenshots/11-record-longest-waits.png) — **Longest waits.** The longest queues a guest has actually stood in, timed rather than posted, with the worst and the average across every logged ride.
- [12-record-time-you-saved.png](https://parkypass.com/press/screenshots/12-record-time-you-saved.png) — **Time you saved.** Lightning Lane accounting: hours skipped versus hours stood in line, and which attractions returned the most time.

## About the developer

Parky is made by Chase Van Derrick, an independent developer working as
Nauta Ventures LLC.

It is built for the way a park day actually goes — a few decisions that matter,
a lot of walking, and a day worth remembering afterwards without having narrated
it into a feed while it happened. That is also why it covers two resorts rather
than many: every attraction, show, parade, and fireworks in Walt Disney World
and Disneyland is drawn as its own stamp, which is not something that scales by
adding parks quickly.

## Independence and trademarks

Parky is an independent companion app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by,
sponsored by, or officially connected to The Walt Disney Company or any of its
subsidiaries or affiliates. All park, attraction, and property names are
trademarks of their respective owners and are used for identification only.

Wait times, hours, and availability are compiled from a variety of sources and
can lag or be incorrect. Parky is a companion, not an authority.
