Hello Irene!
Welcome to planDisney, and congratulations on your trip that is almost here! Woo hooo! Just a few more sleeps and you'll be waking up at the Most Magical Place on Earth.
I love your question, because I am mildly obsessed with seeing (and changing) my Disney character icon in My Disney Experience. Because you know... some days you feel like a princess, and some days you feel like a spicy fairy!
Character pictures are associated with an individual's My Disney account, so I hope this is what you are describing. To update your character, after logging in just navigate to
My Disney Experience Profile and look for the link right above your name that says "Change Character". To do so in the My Disney Experience app, from the home screen select the "≡" menu icon in the lower right corner, scroll down to My Account - Profile, and under your name you should see the "Change Character" link.
You can also select a character for any guest accounts you manage by navigating to the "Family & Friends List", selecting a guest you manage, and then looking for the "Change Character" link near their name.
In addition to being fun to see when perusing your plans in the
My Disney Experience app, these character icons for each guest are an easy visual verification that you've selected the correct guests for any
advance dining reservations or
Lightning Lane purchases you make. Did you know you can also place a
mobile food order at quick-service locations from inside the app? This is a great way to save time and skip the busy lunch lines!
I hope this is what you were looking for, Irene? If I misunderstood, or can help answer any other questions
please let me know. Sending pixie dust for you to have a magical vacation!
See ya' real soon,
Tami
