Overview
- The Play Disney Parks app was removed from the Apple and Google Play stores and logins were disabled on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, which immediately cut off access to cloud‑stored achievements and progress.
- The Star Wars: Datapad feature that let guests hack panels, scan crates, and interact with Galaxy’s Edge through their phones was retired with the app and has no announced replacement.
- Experiences that rely on MagicBand+ and in-park screens, such as Batuu Bounty Hunters and Fab 50 statue interactions, continue to function but the app-based scorekeeping and phone components have stopped working.
- Some linked activities show mixed continuity: DuckTales World Showcase Adventure is listed as under refurbishment with an unclear future, while certain cruise games appear playable only through the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app now.
- Guests who cared about saved achievements were advised before the shutdown to screenshot or otherwise capture their progress because Disney did not provide an export tool or migration for stored data.
